Abolition Democracy
Author: Angela Y. Davis
Publisher: Seven Stories Press
ISBN: 1609801032
Category : Political Science
Languages : en
Pages : 138
Book Description
Revelations about U.S policies and practices of torture and abuse have captured headlines ever since the breaking of the Abu Ghraib prison story in April 2004. Since then, a debate has raged regarding what is and what is not acceptable behavior for the world’s leading democracy. It is within this context that Angela Davis, one of America’s most remarkable political figures, gave a series of interviews to discuss resistance and law, institutional sexual coercion, politics and prison. Davis talks about her own incarceration, as well as her experiences as "enemy of the state," and about having been put on the FBI’s "most wanted" list. She talks about the crucial role that international activism played in her case and the case of many other political prisoners. Throughout these interviews, Davis returns to her critique of a democracy that has been compromised by its racist origins and institutions. Discussing the most recent disclosures about the disavowed "chain of command," and the formal reports by the Red Cross and Human Rights Watch denouncing U.S. violation of human rights and the laws of war in Guantánamo, Afghanistan and Iraq, Davis focuses on the underpinnings of prison regimes in the United States.

Legal Reasoning
Author: John Hynes Farrar
Publisher:
ISBN: 9780455227177
Category : Jurisprudence
Languages : en
Pages : 340
Book Description
This book takes a fresh approach to first year introduction to law courses. It is a new Australian work based partly on the author's earlier successful United Kingdom book, Introduction to Legal Method (co-authored with Tony Dugdale) and concentrates on legal reasoning and legal method for first year law students and business students. The book is set in the context of a broad social view of the legal system and emphasises the legal process in a sometimes critical fashion. Referring to both Australian and New Zealand law and the contrasts between them, this book focuses on how lawyers think and reason. It also covers how legal reasoning claims to be distinctive, while following practical reasoning techniques with policy and value elements. Written succinctly and in plain English, the engaging subject matter covers indigenous people's customs and rights, fallacies in reasoning, international influences and human rights. It also includes a discussion of the impact of the information revolution on Law and lawyers and whether this affects the lawyer's role and status. Authored by the highly respected Dr John Farrar, and based on his teaching experience in the United Kingdom, Australia and New Zealand, this book provides a rigorous introduction to law that will put the student in a solid position to tackle future subjects.
