Re-Examining the Crime Drop
ISBN: 9783319676531 / Angielski / Twarda / 2017 / 116 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 20 dni roboczych. The crime drop is one of the most important puzzles in contemporary criminology: since the early-1990s many countries appear to exhibit a pronounced decline in crime rates. While there have been many studies on the topic, this book argues that the current crime drop literature relies too heavily on a single methodological approach, and in turn, provides a new method for examining the falling rates of crime, based on ideas from political science and comparative historical social science. Farrall's original new research forwards an understanding of trends in crime and responses to them by...

Escape Routes: Contemporary Perspectives on Life After Punishment addresses the reasons why people stop offending, and the processes by which they are rehabilitated or resettled back into the community. Engaging with, and building upon, renewed criminological interest in this area, Escape Routes nevertheless broadens and enlivens the current debate. First, its scope goes beyond a narrowly-defined notion of crime and includes, for example, essays on religious redemption, the lives of ex-war criminals, and the relationship between ethnicity and desistance from crime....

The Legacy of Thatcherism: Assessing and Exploring Thatcherite Social and Economic Policies
ISBN: 9780197265703 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 260 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Three decades after the election of Margaret Thatcher as Prime Minister, it is perhaps time to take stock of the concept of 'Thatcherism' and the prominent role it has played in the history of post-war Britain.
Of course, there is much debate about what Thatcherism actually was or is. Some commentators argue that Thatcherism was more noteworthy for its rhetoric than for its achievements. The welfare state, for example, emerged little changed after eleven years of Thatcherism. Some historians additionally suggest that other social forces that existed prior to Thatcher will outlast her....

Criminal Careers in Transition: The Social Context of Desistance from Crime
ISBN: 9780199682157 / Angielski / Twarda / 2014 / 352 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Continuing previous work exploring why people stop offending, and the processes by which they are rehabilitated in the community, Criminal Careers in Transition: The Social Context of Desistance from Crime follows the completion of a fifth sweep of interviews with members of a cohort of former probationers interviewed since the late-1990s. The research undertaken since the inception of the project in 1996 has focused on developing a long-term evidence base, rather than a rapid assessment, examining whether (and how) probation supervision assists desistance from crime.

Social Order and the Fear of Crime in Contemporary Times
ISBN: 9780199540815 / Angielski / Twarda / 2009 / 200 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. The fear of crime has been recognized as an important social problem in its own right, with a significant number of citizens in many countries concerned about crime. In this book, the authors critically review the main findings from over 35 years of research into attitudes to crime, highlighting groups who are most fearful of crime and exploring the theories used to account for that fear. Using this research, the authors move on to propose a new model for the fear of crime, arguing that such methods, which involve intensity questions (such as 'how worried are you about x ...'), may actually...

Justice and Penal Reform: Re-Shaping the Penal Landscape
ISBN: 9781138191075 / Angielski / Miękka / 2016 / 220 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. In the aftermath of the financial crisis of 2008, Western societies entered a climate of austerity which has limited the penal expansion experienced in the US, UK and elsewhere over recent decades. These altered conditions have led to introspection and new thinking on punishment even among those on the political right who were previously champions of the punitive turn. This volume brings together a group of international leading scholars with a shared interest in using this opportunity to encourage new avenues of reform in the penal sphere. Justice is a famously contested concept... In the aftermath of the financial crisis of 2008, Western societies entered a climate of austerity which has limited the penal expansion experience... |

Exploring Political Legacies
ISBN: 9783030370084 / Angielski / Miękka / 2021 / 107 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 20 dni roboczych. The concept of the political legacy, despite its importance for institutionalist and historically-minded political analysts more generally, remains both elusive and undeveloped theoretically. This book seeks to address that oversight by building on existing studies which have approached the notion of a legacy to offer a clear definition and operationalisation of the term which might be used to inform future research. Legacies we view as traces of the past in the present; the claim to the existence of a legacy is both a causal and a counter-factual claim. We propose, in the light of this, a...
