The Role of the Media in Criminal Justice Policy
Author: Natalia Antolak-Saper
Publisher: Taylor & Francis
ISBN: 1000647781
Category : Law
Languages : en
Pages : 190
Book Description
This book provides a socio-legal examination of the media’s influence on the development and implementation of criminal justice policy. This impact is often assumed. And, especially in the wake of high-profile crimes, the press is routinely observed calling for sentences to be harsher, and for governments to be tougher on crime. But how do we know that there is a connection? To answer this question, the book draws on a case study of the media reporting of the rape and murder of Jill Meagher in Melbourne, Australia; as well as other well-known cases, including those of James Bulger, Sarah Payne, Stephen Lawrence and Michael Brown, among others. Deploying a socio-legal framework to examine how the media’s often powerful and emotive narratives play a crucial role in the development and implementation of law, the book provides a deep and critical reflection on its influence. The book concludes with a number of suggestions for media reform: both to moderate the media’s influence, and to incorporate a broader range of viewpoints. This multi-disciplinary book will appeal to scholars and students in sociolegal studies, criminology and criminal law as well as those working in relevant areas in sociology and media studies.

Class, Race, Gender, and Crime
Author: Gregg Barak
Publisher: Rowman & Littlefield
ISBN: 1538173298
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 371
Book Description
Inequality and injustice have long been part of the structure of our society, including law, crime, and the criminal justice system. Class, Race, Gender, and Crime, sixth edition explores the continuing impact of class, race, gender, sexuality, and their intersections – and how the “justice” system can recreate those oppressions. Broken into three parts, the book opens with an overview of the criminal justice-industrial complex and introspection about the biases in criminology. Part II, “Inequality and Privilege,” contains chapters to provide a foundation for understanding class, race, gender and sexuality and intersectionality. Part III, “The Administration of Law and Criminal Justice” covers criminal law, policing, prosecution and courts, and punishment, with headings in each chapter for class, race, gender and sexuality and intersectionality to provide systematic coverage. The text also highlights how immigration (“crimmigration”), child welfare, healthcare, and other systems are intertwined with criminal justice in the lives of different minority populations. Real-world examples of how class, race, and gender and sexuality unfold in sentencing and punishment bring theory to life, while chapter-opening vignettes illustrate key issues, and discussion questions encourage critical thinking. New to This Edition: New and expanded coverage of immigration enforcement highlights its connection to criminal justice and its importance for understanding social control in our society (Chapter 1, Chapter 4, Chapter 8, Chapter 9) Entirely revised Chapter 5, “Understanding Gender/Sexuality and Male/Heterosexual Privilege” offers modern and comprehensive understandings of gender and sexuality, including queer theory and queer criminology, that carries through later chapters Expanded Chapter 8, “Law Enforcement” and expanded Chapter 9, “Prosecution, Plea Bargains and Deportation,” offer new explorations such as policing of abortions and miscarriage, and immigration courts, respectively New conclusion discusses prison abolition, so readers can understand the debate and think for themselves about how deep the need for reform goes

Offending Youth
Author: Kerry Carrington
Publisher: Federation Press
ISBN: 9781862877597
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 228
Book Description
Rates of female delinquency, especially for violent crimes, are increasing in most common law countries. At the same time the growth in cyber-bullying, especially among girls, appears to be a related global phenomenon.While the gender gap in delinquency is narrowing in Australia, United States, Canada and the United Kingdom, boys continue to dominate the youth who commit crime and have a virtual monopoly over sexually violent crimes. Indigenous youth continue to be vastly over-represented in the juvenile justice system in every Australian jurisdiction. The Indigenisation of delinquency is a persistent problem in other countries such as Canada and New Zealand.Young people who gather in public places are susceptible to being perceived as somehow threatening or riotous, attracting more than their share of public order policing. Professional football has been marred by repeated scandals involving sexual assault, violence and drunkenness. Given the cultural significance of footballers as role models to thousands, if not millions, of young men around the world, it is vitally important to address this problem. Offending Youth explores these key contemporary patterns of delinquency, the response to these by the juvenile justice agencies and moreover what can be done to address these problems.The book also analyses the major policy and legislative changes from the nineteenth to twenty first centuries, chiefly the shift the penal welfarism to diversion and restorative justice. Using original cases studied by Carrington twenty years ago, Offending Youth illustrates how penal welfarism criminalised young people from socially marginal backgrounds, especially Aboriginal children, children from single parent families, family-less children, state wards and young people living in poverty or in housing commission estates. A number of inquiries in Australia and the United Kingdom have since established that children committed to these institutions, supposedly for their own good, experienced systemic physical, sexual and psychological abuse during their institutionalisation. The book is dedicated to the survivors of these institutions who only now are receiving official recognition of the injustices they suffered.The underlying philosophy of juvenile justice has fundamentally shifted away from penal welfarism to embrace positive policy responses to juvenile crime, such as youth conferencing, cautions, warnings, restorative justice, circle sentencing and diversion examined in the concluding chapter.Offending Youth is aimed at a broad readership including policy makers, juvenile justice professionals, youth workers, families, teachers, politicians as well as students and academics in criminology, policing, gender studies, masculinity studies, Indigenous studies, justice studies, youth studies and the sociology of youth and deviance more generally.
