Book Synopsis Justice for Victims by : Inge Vanfraechem
Download or read book Justice for Victims written by Inge Vanfraechem and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2014-06-27 with total page 414 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Justice for Victims brings together the world’s leading scholars in the fields of study surrounding victimization in a pioneering international collection. This book focuses on the current study of victims of crime, combining both legal and social-scientific perspectives, articulating both in new directions and questioning whether victims really do have more rights in our modern world. This book offers an interdisciplinary approach, covering large-scale (political) victimization, terrorist victimization, sexual victimization and routine victimization. Split into three sections, this book provides in-depth coverage of: victims' rights, transitional justice and victims' perspectives, and trauma, resilience and justice. Victims' rights are conceptualised in the human rights framework and discussed in relation to supranational, international and regional policies. The transitional justice section covers victims of war from those caught between peace and justice, as well as post-conflict justice. The final section focuses on post-traumatic stress, connecting psychological and anthropological perceptions in analysing collective violence, mass victimization and trauma. This book addresses challenging and new issues in the field of victimology and the study of transitional and restorative justice. As such, it will be of interest to researchers, practitioners and students interested in the fields of victimology, transitional justice, restorative justice and trauma work.

Book Synopsis Criminal Policy in Transition by : Penny Green
Download or read book Criminal Policy in Transition written by Penny Green and published by Hart Publishing. This book was released on 2000-11 with total page 303 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Criminal Policy in Transition comes along at a time when the literature in criminology is desperately short of “global” perspectives. It helps fill that gap while it presents important new insights into changing penal policy and practice. That it raises as many questions as it seems to answer is one of its great strengths. The authors write knowledgeably about their home societies without being prematurely bounded by comparative criteria. As a result,they develop a complex and uneven image of similarities and differences, of divergence and convergence through time. In this sense the collection offers a model of how international collaborative work should proceed. The book is the product of a workshop held at the International Institute for the Sociology of Law (IISL) in Onati, Spain. The IISL is a partnership between the Research Committee on the Sociology of Law and the Basque Government

Book Synopsis International Comparison of Crime and Victimization by : Helmut Kury
Download or read book International Comparison of Crime and Victimization written by Helmut Kury and published by De Sitter Publications. This book was released on 2001 with total page 169 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume is dedicated to one of the largest series of victim surveys ever conducted: the International Crime (Victim) Survey (1989, 1992, and 2000). Surveys have been carried out in 24 industrialized countries since 1989, and in 46 cities in developing countries and countries in transition. The ICVS has made an important contribution to our understanding of crime rates across many regions. The United Nations has placed much emphasis on the development, analysis, and policy use of crime and criminal justice information. The ICVS is an important component of such policy and most countries use surveys for identifying groups and areas at risk, developing crime prevention policies and assessing programs. Key findings are discussed in the context of social, economic, and political changes. Most importantly, these articles indicate that comparative projects such as the ICVS are emerging as key players in understanding and linking issues of safety and development and that measuring levels of safety is crucial for human development.

Book Synopsis Global Study on Homicide 2013 by : United Nations
Download or read book Global Study on Homicide 2013 written by United Nations and published by UN. This book was released on 2014-06-15 with total page 277 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Global Study on Homicide 2013 is based on comprehensive data from more than 200 countries/territories, and examines and analyses patterns and trends in homicide at the global, regional, national and sub-national levels. Such analysis is fundamental to understanding the various factors and dynamics that drive homicide, so that measures can be developed to reduce violent crime. The Study provides a typology of homicide, including homicide related to crime, coexistence-related homicide, and socio-political homicide. The nature of crime in several countries emerging from conflict, the role of various mechanisms in killing, and the response of the criminal justice system to homicide are also analyzed. A further chapter examines homicide at the sub-national level, and includes analysis at the city-level for selected global cities.

Book Synopsis Changing Attitudes to Punishment by : Julian Roberts
Download or read book Changing Attitudes to Punishment written by Julian Roberts and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-01-11 with total page 257 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Throughout the western world public opinion has played an important role in shaping criminal justice policy. At the same time opinion polls repeatedly demonstrate that the public knows little about crime and justice, and holds negative views of the criminal justice system. This book, consisting of chapters from leading authorities in the field, is concerned to address this problem, and draws upon research in a number of different countries to address the issues arising from this state of affairs. Its main aims are: to explore the changing and evolving nature of public attitudes to sentencing to examine the factors that influence public opinion and to bring together recent international research which has demonstrated ways in which public attitudes can be changed to propose specific strategies to respond to the crisis in public confidence in criminal justice.
