ISBN: 9780765806956 / Angielski / Miękka / 2000 / 447 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Academic research on state crime has focused on the illegal actions of individuals and organizations (i.e., syndicates and corporations). Interchangeably labeled governmental crime, delinquency, illegality, or lawlessness, official deviance and misconduct, crimes of obedience, and human rights violations, state crime has largely been considered in relation to insurgent violence or threats to national security. Generally, it has been seen as a phenomenon endemic to authoritarian countries in transitional and lesser developed contexts. We need look no further than today's headlines to see...

Making News of Police Violence: A Comparative Study of Toronto and New York City
ISBN: 9780275968250 / Angielski / Twarda / 2000 / 192 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Although many people consider excessive police violence disconcerting, if, when, and how they voice their opinion or respond by taking some sort of action has generally remained empirically unknown. In the hope of understanding this process, Ross has developed a four-stage model, based on a review of the literature and on interviews with the relevant actors. He then uses this tool to analyze police violence that occurred in Toronto, Canada and New York City, over a fifteen-year period. To better focus the study, he uses in-depth case studies of three well-publicized cases of police...

Anyone living or working in a city has feared or experienced street crime at one time or another; whether it be a mugging, purse snatching, or a more violent crime. In the U.S., street crime has recently hovered near historic lows; hence, the declaration of certain analysts that street life in America has never been safer. But is it really? Street crime has changed over past decades, especially with the advent of surveillance cameras in public places--the territory of the street criminal--but at the same time, criminals have found ways to adapt. This encyclopedic reference focuses primarily...

A Crisis in Community College Leadership: The Philip Dolly Affair
ISBN: 9781936403479 / Angielski / Miękka / 2015 / 234 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. A Crisis in Community College Leadership: The Phillip Dolly Affair is literary in development but grounded in "chaotic" community college daily experience. The novel is comic, satiric, quasi-politically correct, edgy, and richly descriptive of community college life, leadership foibles, and cultural themes. This hyperbolic text is entertaining, edifying, and fun. Little community college fiction-comic or otherwise-exists-the authors are fearless in their humorous-and sometimes biting-- analysis of community college culture....
