Revealing the cross utility potential of multiple disciplines to advance knowledge in crime studies, History & Crime showcases new research into crime from across the interdisciplinary perspectives of early modern and modern history, criminology, forensic psychology, and legal studies. Authored by emerging and established scholars from the around the world, the contributions span youth crime, feminist criminology, historic penology and court practices, through to the insanity defence, police corruption, and models for post-conflict governance. The chapters present the breadth of the work currently being undertaken around the world in this ground-breaking field, linking the present to the historic. Through these diverse chapters, the editors illustrate the current scholarship already bridging the oft-asserted divide between history and the social sciences. It is argued that differences in language and methodology may have created a mirage of disciplinary division. The collection consequently offers a unique opportunity for advancing a new framework for trans-disciplinary discourse to allow new research to be more easily interpreted and integrated across traditional disciplinary boundaries. This framework will guide future contributions in everything from histories of crime to future-focused crime scholarship, and by allowing better comprehension, drive ground-breaking new knowledge.

R2,082 Discovery Miles 20 820 Ships in 18 - 22 working days

This book examines developments in management and leadership in the social work environment, from both practice-based and academic perspectives. The chapters reflect developments in a range of international settings including those of Europe, South Africa and New Zealand. They represent a range of different approaches also, from the critical to the more affirmative and liberating. The book illustrates the impact of the development of management and leadership in social work, in the current context of marketisation and globalisation, together with the need to focus on service users. Social work has altered significantly as a result of such changes, presenting particular challenges for social work managers. These are detailed and discussed in this book.

Valerie A Clark
R1,466 Discovery Miles 14 660 Ships in 10 - 15 working days

Clark describes the risks and correlates of intimate partner violence (IPV) among adolescents. Using longitudinal data, she finds that the victim-offender overlap that exists in general violence extends to IPV. Also, Michael Johnson's typology of IPV among adults likely exists among adolescents; sometimes IPV is perpetrated by both partners, and sometimes it is perpetrated by only one. Moreover, IPV victimization is not evenly distributed among adolescents, and more targeted interventions are likely needed to prevent abuse. Clark integrates multiple theories of violence and victimization, including lifestyle exposure theory, differential association theory, general strain theory.

R1,259 Discovery Miles 12 590 Ships in 10 - 15 working days

Getting Zambia to Work examines some critical issues in Zambia's recent history, including the country's unhealthy dependency on 'foreign largess' and their implications for national self-assertion, social self-reliance and sustainable development. The book suggests practical and simple ways in which Zambia could lift itself out of its current underdevelopment trap. Though most of the proposed solutions do not require huge investments in new money, they do however require improved transparency and accountability in the use of existing resources. ________________________________________ Chisanga Puta-Chekwe was born at Nchanga in the Copperbelt Province of Zambia. He studied Law at Birmingham University, United Kingdom. A Rhodes Scholar, he also holds a Master of Laws degree from King's College, London and a Master of Arts degree in Philosophy, Politics and Economics from Oxford University. Chisanga Puta-Chekwe practised law in Zambia between 1980 and 1986 (spending three of those years as a political prisoner for his human rights work). He worked in international banking in London before immigrating to Canada where he initially ran his own consulting business. In addition to observing the historic South African election of 1994 for the United Nations, Mr. Puta-Chekwe also supervised the election in Bosnia Herzegovina in 1996, for the Organisation for Security and Cooperation in Europe. He is currently the Deputy Minister for Citizenship and Immigration as well as Women's Issues, in Ontario, Canada. Chisanga Puta-Chekwe is also a solicitor of the Supreme Court of Judicature in England and Wales, as well as an advocate of the High Court for Zambia.

Gender and Welfare in Mexico - The Consolidation of a Postrevolutionary State (Paperback): Nichole Sanders Gender and Welfare in Mexico - The Consolidation of a Postrevolutionary State (Paperback)
Nichole Sanders
R1,164 Discovery Miles 11 640 Ships in 18 - 22 working days

The twentieth-century "Mexican Miracle," which solidified the dominant position of the PRI, has been well documented. A part of the PRI's success story that has not hitherto been told is that of the creation of the welfare state, its impact (particularly on the roles of women), and the consequent transformation of Mexican society. A central focus of the PRI's welfare policy was to protect women and children. An important by-product of this effort was to provide new opportunities for women of the middle and upper classes to carve out a political role for themselves at a time when they did not yet enjoy suffrage and to participate as social workers, administrators, or volunteers. In Gender and Welfare in Mexico, Nichole Sanders uses archival sources from the Ministry of Health and Welfare and contemporary periodical literature to explain how the creation of the Mexican welfare state was gendered--and how the process reflected both international and Mexican discourses on gender, the family, and economic development.
