Youth Street Gangs: A Critical Appraisal
ISBN: 9780415856270 / Angielski / Twarda / 2015 / 246 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Gangs have been heavily pathologized in the last several decades. In comparison to the pioneering Chicago School work on gangs in the 1920's we have moved away from a humanistic appraisal of and sensitivity toward the phenomenon and have allowed the gang to become a highly plastic folk devil outside of history. This pathologization of the gang has particularly negative consequences for democracy in an age of punishment, cruelty and coercive social control. This is the central thesis of David Brotherton's new and highly contentious book on street gangs. Drawing on a wealth of highly acclaimed...

Keeping Out the Other: A Critical Introduction to Immigration Enforcement Today
ISBN: 9780231141291 / Angielski / Miękka / 2008 / 432 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. America's reputation for open immigration has always been accompanied by a desire to remove or discourage the migration of "undesirables." But recent restrictions placed on immigrants, along with an increase in detentions and deportations, point to a more worrying trend. Immigration enforcement has become the fastest growing sector for spending over the past two decades, dwarfing the money spent on helping immigrants adjust to their new lives. Instead of finding effective ways of integrating newcomers into American society, the United States is focusing on making the process of citizenship...

Individual entries address criminal victimization and...

Banished to the Homeland: Dominican Deportees and Their Stories of Exile
ISBN: 9780231149358 / Angielski / Miękka / 2011 / 384 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. The 1996 U.S. Immigration Reform and Responsibility Act has led to the forcible deportation of tens of thousands of Dominicans from the United States. Following thousands of these individuals over a seven-year period, David C. Brotherton and Luis Barrios use a unique combination of sociological and criminological reasoning to isolate the forces that motivate emigrants to leave their homeland and then commit crimes in the Unites States violating the very terms of their stay. Housed in urban landscapes rife with gangs, drugs, and tenuous working conditions, these individuals, the authors find,...

Routledge International Handbook of Critical Gang Studies
ISBN: 9781138616110 / Angielski / Twarda / 2021 / 724 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Routledge International Handbook of Critical Gang Studies is rooted in the instability, inequality and liquidity of the post-industrial era. It understands the gang as a complex and contradictory phenomenon; a socio-historical agent that reflects, responds to and creates a certain structured environment in spaces which are always in flux. International in scope and drawing on a range of sociological, criminological and anthropological traditions, it looks beyond pathological, ahistorical and non-transformative approaches, and considers other important factors that produce the phenomenon,...

ISBN: 9781531640040 / Angielski / Twarda / 2008 / 130 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Parsons, located in southeast Kansas, owes its existence to the railroad. When the first Missouri-Kansas-Texas Railroad locomotive reached the southern border of Kansas in June 1870, the railroad won two prizes, the coveted right to build across Oklahoma Indian Territory and the right to acquire extensive land grants in the territory. The fall of the same year, railroad executives selected a site for a major junction and terminal. The Parsons Town Company sold its first lots in 1871 at Parsons Junction, named for railroad president Judge Levi Parsons. Because of the town's phenomenal growth,...
