Rethinking Community Sanctions: Social Justice and Penal Control
redresses the invisibility of community sanctions in a popular
imaginary dominated by the prison, resulting in their being seen as
‘not prison’, ‘not punishment’, a ‘let off’, or
expression of mercy. Based on insights from interviews with key
participants in 3 Australian jurisdictions, case studies of
selected programmes and policies, and the international literature,
the authors focus on the effects of community sanctions among
groups vulnerable to penal control: First Nations peoples, women,
and those with disabilities, along with those at the intersections
of these groups. Arguing that developing a better, more democratic
politics around community sanctions requires coming to terms with
the wider carceral web in which vulnerable groups are ensnared,
they demonstrate the importance of connecting criminal legal system
struggles with broader movements for community control,
self-determination, and sovereignty.

In God and Mystery in Words, David Brown uses the way in which
poetry and drama have in the past opened people to the possibility
of religious experience as a launch pad for advocating less wooden
approaches to Christian worship today. So far, from encouraging
imagination and exploration, hymns and sermons now more commonly
merely consolidate belief. Again, contemporary liturgy in both its
music and its ceremonial fails to take seriously either current
dramatic theory or the sociology of ritual. Yet this was not always
so. Poetry and drama, Brown suggests, grew out of religion, and
therefore that creative potential needs to be rediscovered by
religion.

A lepidoptery of unavoidable ideas, pinned down and polished over
the years.
This is the largest life-and-works of Musorgsky ever to have appeared outside Russia. Musorgsky created stunning masterpieces in such creations as his opera Boris Godunov and piano suite Pictures at an Exhibition - yet his life was tragic. It is this pathetic tale, interlaced with critical discussion of music, that is this book's concern.
