Book excerpt: It's 1971 in Delhi, India, and Maya Kahtri is about to enter into the time-honored tradition of arranged marriage-a tradition that holds strong against modern ways. But no sooner than Maya's father provides her agreed upon dowry to her fiancé's family does Maya learn that she has just been traded into a deal deeply imbedded into Indian culture-a deal in which Maya is chattel. Maya embarks on a quest to find the root of the cruel customs that have seeped into the families, relationships, and minds of India's people. Going against her prescribed destiny, Maya faces irate backlash as she is hunted by her enemies. But when Indira Gandhi enacts new emergency measures in a forceful attempt to bring a chaotic country further into modernization, Maya finds an ally in her fight. Can Maya change the course of Indian history despite the traditions that are fused so deeply into its identity? Or will she be drawn into India's ancient spells?

Book excerpt: Forensic science is playing an increasingly important role in criminal investigations, as it provides scientific methods and techniques to gather and analyse evidence from crime scenes. Forensic evidence can be crucial in identifying suspects, linking them to the crime scene, and helping to secure convictions in court. In this sense, forensic science is seen as an aid to criminal investigation, providing reliable and objective evidence that can be used to uncover the truth behind criminal activities. The integration of forensic science with law and criminology is creating a new era of progressive thinking, where advanced techniques are being developed to better understand the nature of crime and the behaviour of criminals. With the help of forensic science, investigators can obtain speedy justice and bring criminals to book. However, this requires appropriate measures to be taken for the efficient execution of forensic investigations, including the use of modern technology and the training of professionals in the latest forensic techniques. Given the importance of forensic science in the criminal justice system, it is essential to have a comprehensive understanding of its different aspects. This includes the collection, preservation, and analysis of forensic evidence, as well as the interpretation of this evidence in the context of criminal investigations. This book covers these topics in detail, providing valuable insights for professionals, practitioners, academics, and students of the related fields.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides an anthropological exploration of the ways in which crime is perceived and defined, focusing on notions of truth, intentionality, and evidence. The chapters contain rich ethnographic case studies drawn from work in the Middle East, Africa, India, Mexico and Europe. A variety of instances are discussed, from court proceedings, police reports and newspapers to moments of conflict resolution and reconciliation. Through analysis of this material, the authors reflect on how perception of an act as a crime can differ and how the definition of crime may not be shared by all societies. The approach takes into consideration local standards as well as social, legal and contextual constraints.

Download or read book Crime against Women written by Prof. Sarita Vashistha and published by K.K. Publications. This book was released on 2021-09-15 with total page 368 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ironically, women are still victimised in our society. They have been at the receiving end, from the very beginning of our civilization and culture. Cutting across the regional and political barriers, their lot has been the same. The wrong perception, prevalent in our society is that they are born to be subservient to men and they must be confined to child-bearing and rearing only. There has been a growing trend of violence against women, more so with hunger and greed for material things. Progressive changes in personal lifestyle, living standards and varied growth, caused by urbanisation and changes in social ethos, all contribute to violent attitudes and tendencies, towards women, which have resulted in an increase in crimes against women. This book would prove to be of worth for all scholars, researchers and social workers, who may prefer to know about the subject. They would find it, easy to read and comprehend. It would certainly be an asset for them.

Download or read book International Perspectives on Family Violence and Abuse written by Kathleen Malley-Morrison and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 528 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this book, in which definitions and examples of abuse from men and women from every continent and a very diverse set of backgrounds are considered. The volume provides information on the extent to which family violence is a recognized problem in each country, research findings available on different forms of family violence, and information on governmental responses to family violence. Finally, the value of an international human rights approach to abuse and violence in families is considered. The book presents an unparalleled international coverage, addressing all forms of family violence in Australia and at least two countries from every other continent. Each chapter begins by describing the cultural context in which family violence and abuse take place. These sections emphasize the role of women and children in the country. Providing a multitude of voices, each chapter includes fascinating and often dramatic definitions and examples of abuse from ordinary citizens of the country. The concluding chapter elaborates on the appropriateness of a human rights approach in addressing family violence cross-nationally and cross-culturally; and provides an excellent integration of much of the material from the previous chapters. The book is intended for advanced undergraduates and graduate students in psychology and sociology, as well as pre-professionals and professionals in medicine, law, and social services. It has strong relevance and value to individuals training in counseling (counselor education) and clinical psychology. Because of its readable style and extensive use of quotations from citizens of the countries studied for the book, it may also appeal to a much broader audience, including a lay audience.
