Femicide
Author: Jill Radford
Publisher: Twayne Publishers
ISBN:
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 408
Book Description
This is an anthology of articles analyzing femicide - the misogynist killing of women by men - in the U.S., U.K., and India. The articles in Part 1 explore the history of femicide, demonstrating that it is as old as patriarchy itself. Part 2 explodes the myth that the home provides a safe haven for women. In Part 3 the complex interactions of racism and femicide are explored, showing that femicide is no respecter of race, class or culture. Part 4 concentrates on media representations of femicide, showing that media generally fail to identify the sexual politics of femicide, and often sympathize with the male murderer at the expense of the female victim. Part 5 looks at the response of the criminal justice system to femicide, while Part 6 discusses the ways in which women have begun to fight back.

Normativismo e imputación jurídico-penal
Author: José Antonio Caro John
Publisher: Ediciones Olejnik
ISBN: 9563928431
Category : Law
Languages : es
Pages : 384
Book Description
"El presente libro aborda diversos temas fundamentales del Derecho penal desde una perspectiva normativa basada en el funcionalismo jurídico-penal. La línea directriz del enfoque del autor retoma de alguna forma el plan normativista trazado por los penalistas hegelianos de la primera mitad del S. XIX, que concibieron la imputación como la atribución de un significado de antinormatividad de un hecho, e igualmente se entronca con las líneas básicas de un pensamiento socio-normativo del primer WELZEL, de los años treinta del Siglo XX, momento en el que de manera magistral llevó a un compás el Derecho penal y la Sociedad con su famosa teoría de la adecuación social, para finalmente redondear la argumentación con la sustancia de una dogmática funcionalista desarrollada por Günther JAKOBS de una forma admirable en los últimos treinta años. Temas como la imputación objetiva y subjetiva, la prohibición de regreso, los delitos de infracción de deber, el Derecho penal del enemigo, el deber de solidaridad mínima, el delito tributario, la combinación de leyes penales, la pena de muerte, entre otros más, son abordados funcionalmente a partir del criterio del rol social o del ámbito de competencias como herramienta central para el análisis de la relevancia penal de la conducta del autor. Por esta razón este libro se convierte en un material de inexcusable referencia para comprender la aplicación del sistema penal funcionalista a la solución de los casos prácticos de la vida real".

Against the Death Penalty
Author: Cesare Beccaria
Publisher: Princeton University Press
ISBN: 069121137X
Category : Philosophy
Languages : en
Pages : 232
Book Description
The first known abolitionist critique of the death penalty—here for the first time in English In 1764, a Milanese aristocrat named Cesare Beccaria created a sensation when he published On Crimes and Punishments. At its centre is a rejection of the death penalty as excessive, unnecessary, and pointless. Beccaria is deservedly regarded as the founding father of modern criminal-law reform, yet he was not the first to argue for the abolition of the death penalty. Against the Death Penalty presents the first English translation of the Florentine aristocrat Giuseppe Pelli's critique of capital punishment, written three years before Beccaria's treatise, but lost for more than two centuries in the Pelli family archives. Peter Garnsey examines the contrasting arguments of the two abolitionists, who drew from different intellectual traditions. Pelli was a devout Catholic influenced by the writings of natural jurists such as Hugo Grotius, whereas Beccaria was inspired by the French Enlightenment philosophers. While Beccaria attacked the criminal justice system as a whole, Pelli focused on the death penalty, composing a critique of considerable depth and sophistication. Garnsey explores how Beccaria's alternative penalty of forced labour, and its conceptualisation as servitude, were embraced in Britain and America, and delves into Pelli's voluminous diaries, shedding light on Pelli's intellectual development and painting a vivid portrait of an Enlightenment man of letters and of conscience. With translations of letters exchanged by the two abolitionists and selections from Beccaria's writings, Against the Death Penalty provides new insights into eighteenth-century debates about capital punishment and offers vital historical perspectives on one of the most pressing questions of our own time.

Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 358
Book Description
This collection offers a comprehensive review of the origins, scale and breadth of the privatisation and marketisation revolution across the criminal justice system.

Using economic, sociological and criminological perspectives, illuminated by accessible case studies, they consider the shifting roles and interactions of the public, private and voluntary sectors. As privatisation, outsourcing and the impact of market cultures spread further across the system, the authors look ahead to future developments and signpost the way to reform in a ‘post-market’ criminal justice sphere.

The Woman on the Windowsill

Publisher: Yale University Press
ISBN: 0300252358
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 296
Book Description
A true story of violence and punishment that illuminates a transformative moment in Guatemalan history On the morning of July 1, 1800, a surveyor and mapmaker named Cayetano Díaz opened the window of his study in Guatemala City to find a horrific sight: a pair of severed breasts. Offering a meticulously researched and evocative account of the quest to find the perpetrator and understand the motives behind such a brutal act, this volume pinpoints the sensational crime as a watershed moment in Guatemalan history that radically changed the nature of justice and the established social order. Sylvia Sellers-García reveals how this bizarre and macabre event spurred an increased attention to crime that resulted in more forceful policing and reflected important policy decisions not only in Guatemala but across Latin America. This fascinating book is both an engaging criminal case study and a broader consideration of the forces shaping Guatemala City at the brink of the modern era.
