This two-volume, edited collection lays the groundwork for an
international exploration of incarceration and generation, cover a
range of geographic, judicial and administrative contexts of
incarceration from contributors across a range of subjects. Volume
I explores an array of experiences, dynamics, cultures,
interventions and impacts of incarceration in specific generations:
childhood, youth and emerging adulthood, adulthood and older age.
It covers topics such as: the expansion of the penal landscape;
deprivation of liberty regarding children, the problem of
unaccompanied migrant children; the incarceration of young adults
and adults, exploring its impacts within and beyond incarceration
and the consequences of imprisoning older populations. Volume II
examines intergenerational relations issues within different
contexts of incarceration. This collection discusses public
policies and the role of the state and the citizen deprived of
liberty. It speaks to academics in criminology, sociology,
psychology, and law, and to practitioners and policymakers
interested in incarceration.
This book compiles research on female crime and delinquency in
Portugal in order to critically and reflectively explore
interdisciplinary views on the link between gender, crime and
delinquency. Contributions are organized into two main parts, with
Part I dedicated to the relationship between women and crime, and
Part II focused on female juvenile delinquency. Through the
exploration of girls' and women's relationships with delinquency
and crime, as well as with the justice system, this original and
compelling collection highlights the heterogeneity of girls' and
women's experiences, whilst also underlining the convergences and
divergences between them. Ultimately, Gomes and Duarte argue that
understanding how women and girls explain their offending
behaviours and how they relate to the criminal justice system is of
the utmost importance for reforming social and legal policies. As
such, this book will be of value not only for students, researchers
and professionals of the social, behavioural and criminal sciences,
but also for policy-makers seeking to provide greater efficiency in
preventing crime and delinquency.

impacts of incarceration on multiple generations and within
families; and media representations of the intergenerationality of
incarceration. Volume I explores an array of experiences, dynamics,
cultures, interventions, and impacts of incarceration in different
generations. This collection speaks to academics in criminology,
sociology, psychology, and law, and to practitioners and

Cabo Verdean Women Writing Remembrance, Resistance, and Revolution:
Kriolas Poderozas documents the work and stories told by Cabo
Verdean women to refocus the narratives about Cabo Verde on Cabo
Verdean women and their experiences. The contributors examine their
own experiences, the history of Cabo Verde, and Cabo Verdean
diaspora to highlight the commonalities that exist among all women
of African descent, such as sexual and domestic violence and media
objectification, as well as the different meanings these
commonalities can hold in local contexts. Through exploring the
literary and musical contributions of Cabo Verdean women, the Cabo
Verdean state and its transnational relations, food and cooking
traditions, migration and diaspora, and the oral histories of Cabo
Verde, the contributors analyze themes of community, race,
sexuality, migration, gender, and tradition.
Intersectionality and Women's Access to Justice, edited by J. Jarpa
Dawuni, propounds layered intersectionality as a paradigm for
examining how gendered factors affect women's access to justice,
whether as judges or litigants. Through intersectional and
decolonial frameworks, the contributors analyze the lived
experiences of women and their access to justice by situating the
courtroom as both a spatial and a temporal arena for seeking
justice (as litigants) and for seeking access to the bench (as
judges). This book examines patterns of mutually reinforcing
discriminatory practices that women share based on common gender
identities and depending on which identities are at play at a given
point in time in both traditional and statutory courts. The book
provides recommendations for various justice sector providers.
