Book Synopsis Changing Substance Abuse and Criminal Behavior Through Therapeutic Relationships by : Debra H. Benveniste
Download or read book Changing Substance Abuse and Criminal Behavior Through Therapeutic Relationships written by Debra H. Benveniste and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-05-25 with total page 223 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book approaches the treatment process from a new and yet old perspective. Eleven men who successfully desisted from substance abuse and offending were interviewed to determine how their significant therapeutic relationships facilitated this life change. Data is integrated with a new psychodynamic framework, relational analytic theory, which focuses clinical attention on the qualities and processes of the therapeutic relationship. A therapy model is developed which addresses how to attain and maintain therapeutic engagement, treat client symptoms, and utilize therapeutic conflict to develop client capacity for internal conflict and personal agency, functions critical to resolving addictive behavior. Societal and cultural obstacles to treatment are addressed including group stigmatisation, a lack of funding, and our current manual and group-based treatment protocols.
Book Synopsis Resource Management and Contested Territories in East Asia by : R. Emmers
Download or read book Resource Management and Contested Territories in East Asia written by R. Emmers and published by Springer. This book was released on 2013-01-31 with total page 106 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ralf Emmers discusses the significance of natural resources as a source of inter-state cooperation and competition in East Asia, assessing whether the joint exploration and development of resources can act as a means to reduce tensions in contested territories. Does the joint management of natural resources in the absence of a negotiated maritime delimitation constitute a feasible strategy to de-escalate maritime sovereignty disputes in East Asia? Can cooperative resource exploitation be separated from nationalist considerations and power politics calculations? Alternatively, should the prospect for joint exploration in disputed waters be expected to raise rather than defuse territorial conflicts, especially if abundant resources are eventually discovered? If this were true, should exploration schemes be postponed until sovereignty disputes have been resolved? Emmers addresses these questions by examining the overlapping sovereignty claims in the Sea of Japan and the East and South China Seas.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle.
