This edited collection analyses, from multiple disciplinary
perspectives, the issue of corruption in commercial enterprise
across different sectors and jurisdictions. Corruption is commonly
recognised as a major 'social bad', and is seriously harmful to
society, in terms of the functioning and legitimacy of
political-economic systems, and the day-to-day lives of
individuals. There is nothing novel about bribes in brown envelopes
and dubious backroom deals, ostensibly to grease the wheels of
business. Corrupt practices like these go to the very heart of
illicit transacting in both legal markets - such as kickbacks to
facilitate contracts in international commerce - and illegal
markets - such as payoffs to public officials to turn a blind eye
to cross-border smuggling. Aside from the apparent pervasiveness
and longevity of corruption in commercial enterprise, there is now
renewed policy and operational attention on the phenomenon,
prompting and meriting deeper analysis. Corruption in commercial
enterprise, encompassing behaviours often associated with corporate
and white-collar crime, and corruption in criminal commercial
enterprise, where we see corruption central to organised crime
activities, are major public policy issues. This collection gives
us insight into their nature, organisation and governance, and how
to respond most appropriately and effectively.

A boxed set in four volumes, each volume in the series represents a
core sample of the firm at this moment in time, highlighting a
grouping of four major projects that share a common theme but not
necessarily the same typology or program. The themes are threads
that weave the work together and as a whole define the design
philosophy of the firm. The firm's emphasis on sustainability is a
current that runs through the narrative of each book. Each book
focuses on design process and collaboration. Each project is
presented in depth and will underscore the methodology, aesthetics,
techniques and ethos of the firm. With future volumes planned,
these sets will track the progression of ideas that evolve over
time through the work that enacts the ideas, and informs the work
to come.
FUSE - Blurring the boundary between landscape and building. From
the scale of the building to the scale of the city, these projects
integrate architecture, building systems thinking and natural
systems. This philosophy takes the landscape and ecological forces
that are the context and incorporates them within the design of the
building, urban planning, and infrastructure design.
EVOLVE - Repositioning and Adaptive Re-Use of existing buildings.
These projects investigate buildings as artifact and re-construe
them for a new life as the original architecture degrades and the
mission of the buildings change. Analysis of original design
intent, construction methods, ornamentation and the cultural
processes that have been enacted on the building over time form the
basis of design. Fundamental architectural relationships, building
envelope and circulation are re-thought and restructured to create
new uses and relationships, completely transforming these spaces.
FILTER - Integration of culture and climate into sustainable
architecture. FX Fowle practices a contemporary language of
modernism, one that contrasts sharply from the original ethos of
universalism and the tabula rasa. The specificities of climate and
culture impact the design of form and program in FX Fowle
buildings. The lenses of culture and climate are necessarily
specific to the location and cultural values of each project and
ultimately create an integral sustainability.
FLEX - Derived from a programmatic interpretation that re-thinks
building mission, function and performance in office buildings,
education, cultural institutions. FXFOWLE's process begins with
finding the values of the institution, identifying its community,
and then working to embody this in the architecture. The design
achieves this through form finding, envisioning new types of
interior circulation that encourages particular kinds of
interactions, and creating gathering spaces that are fine tailored
to the institution. The architecture sets the stage for
interactions of the community and ultimately works to develop a new
relationship between the individual and the institution
The fifth edition of The Criminal Process continues in the
tradition of previous editions in providing an insightful and
stimulating analysis of the key issues in criminal processes and
procedures. The authors draw on arguments from the law, research,
policy, and principle, to present an authoritative overview of this
area of study.
Organised Crime and the Law presents an overview of the laws and
policies adopted to address the phenomenon of organised crime in
the United Kingdom and Ireland, assessing the changes to these
justice systems, in terms of the prevention, investigation,
prosecution and punishment of such criminality. While the notion of
organised crime is a contested one, States' legal responses treat
it and its constituent offences as unproblematic in a definitional
sense. This book advances a systematic doctrinal critique of these
domestic criminal laws,laws of evidence and civil processes.
Organised Crime and the Law focuses on the tension between due
process and crime control, the demands of public protection and
risk aversion, and other adaptations. In particular, it identifies
parallels and points of divergence between the different
jurisdictions in the UK and Ireland, bearing in mind the shared
history of subversive threats and counter-terrorism policies. It
also examines the extent to which policy transfer is evident in the
UK and Ireland in terms of emulating the United States in reacting
to organised crime.
That Which Is looks the first principles of Spiritual Evolution.
Discussing a series of topics in a simple no nonsense manner,
