Making Crime Count
ISBN: 9780802083487 / Angielski / Miękka / 2001 / 256 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Official statistics are one of the most important sources of knowledge about crime and the criminal justice system. Yet, little is known about the inner workings of the institutions that produce these numbers. In this groundbreaking study, Kevin D. Haggerty sheds light on the process involved in the gathering and disseminating of crime statistics through an empirical examination of the Canadian Centre for Justice Statistics (CCJS), the branch of Statistics Canada responsible for producing data on the criminal justice system. Making Crime Count details how the availability of... Official statistics are one of the most important sources of knowledge about crime and the criminal justice system.

Policing the Risk Society
ISBN: 9780198265535 / Angielski / Twarda / 1997 / 504 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. In this provocative new book, Richard Ericson and Kevin Haggerty contend that the police have become information brokers to institutions such as insurance companies and health and welfare organizations that operate based on a knowledge of risk. In turn, these institutions influence the ways that police officers think and act. A critical review of existing research reveals the need to study police interaction with institutions as well as individuals. These institutions are part of an emerging risk society where knowledge of risk is used to control danger. The authors examine different aspects...

57 Ways to Screw Up in Grad School: Perverse Professional Lessons for Graduate Students
ISBN: 9780226280905 / Angielski / Miękka / 2015 / 208 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 18-20 dni roboczych. Don't think about why you're applying. Select a topic for entirely strategic reasons. Choose the coolest supervisor. Write only to deadlines. Expect people to hold your hand. Become "that" student. When it comes to a masters or PhD program, most graduate students don't deliberately set out to fail. Yet, of the nearly 500,000 people who start a graduate program each year, up to half will never complete their degree. Books abound on acing the admissions process, but there is little on what to do once the acceptance letter arrives. Veteran graduate directors Kevin D. Haggerty and Aaron...

Security Games : Surveillance and Control at Mega-Events
ISBN: 9780415602624 / Angielski / Twarda / 2011 / 208 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Security Games: Surveillance and Control at Mega-Events addresses the impact of mega-events -- such as the Olympic Games and the World Cup -- on wider practices of security and surveillance. "Mega-Events" pose peculiar and extensive security challenges. The overwhelming imperative is that "nothing should go wrong." There are, however, an almost infinite number of things that can "go wrong"; producing the perceived need for pre-emptive risk assessments, and an expanding range of security measures, including extensive forms and levels of surveillance. These measures are delivered by a...

Surveillance and Democracy
ISBN: 9780415472395 / Angielski / Twarda / 2010 / 272 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. This collection represents the first sustained attempt to grapple with the complex and often paradoxical relationships between surveillance and democracy. Is surveillance a barrier to democratic processes, or might it be a necessary component of democracy? How has the legacy of post 9/11 surveillance developments shaped democratic processes? As surveillance measures are increasingly justified in terms of national security, is there the prospect that a shadow "security state" will emerge? How might new surveillance measures alter the conceptions of citizens and citizenship which are at the...

Routledge Handbook of Surveillance Studies
ISBN: 9781138026025 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 460 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Surveillance is a central organizing practice. Gathering personal data and processing them in searchable databases drives administrative efficiency but also raises questions about security, governance, civil liberties and privacy. Surveillance is both globalized in cooperative schemes, such as sharing biometric data, and localized in the daily minutiae of social life. This innovative Handbook explores the empirical, theoretical and ethical issues around surveillance and its use in daily life. With a collection of over forty essays from the leading names in...

Transparent Lives: Surveillance in Canada
ISBN: 9781927356777 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 242 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 18-20 dni roboczych. Many Canadians are aware that government agencies conduct mass surveillance using phone and online data. Fewer are aware of being under constant surveillance in their everyday lives. We cannot walk downtown, attend a class, pay with a credit card, hop on an airplane, or make a phone call without data being captured and processed. Where does it go? Who makes use of it? Is loss of control of our personal data the price paid for social media and electronic communications, or do we tolerate a system that makes us visible ? and thus vulnerable ? to others as never before? Experts from a... Many Canadians are aware that government agencies conduct mass surveillance using phone and online data. Fewer are aware of being under constant su... |
