Criminal Justice Theory Volume 26 Explanations and Effects Criminal Justice Theory: Explanations and Effects undertakes a systematic study of theories of the criminal justice system which historically have received very little attention from scholars. This is a glaring omission given the risk of mass imprisonment the increasing presence of police in inner-city communities and the emergence of new policy initiatives aimed at improving the quality and effectiveness of the administration of justice. Fortunately however a number of disparate theoretical works have appeared that seek to provide insight into the nature and impact of criminal justice. Based on 13 original essays by influential scholars this volume pulls together the most significant of these perspectives thus creating a state-of-the-art assessment of contemporary criminal justice theory. Criminal justice theory can be divided into two main categories. The first includes works that seek to explain the operation of the criminal justice system. Most of these contributions have grappled with the core reality of American criminal justice: its rising embrace of punitiveness and the growth of mass imprisonment. The second category focuses on works that identify theories that have often guided efforts to reduce crime. The issue here focuses mainly on the effects of certain theoretically guided criminal justice interventions. The current volume is thus organized into these two categories: explanations and effects. The result is an innovative and comprehensive book that not only serves researchers by advancing scholarship but also is appropriate for advanced undergraduate or graduate classroom use. | Criminal Justice Theory Volume 26 Explanations and Effects GBP 38.99 1
Volume 21 Tome I: Cumulative Index Index of Names A-K This last volume of Kierkegaard Research: Sources Reception and Resources is a cumulative index to all the volumes of the series. The series was originally designed in a systematic fashion in order to make it as easily usable and accessible as possible. The individual parts of the series and the individual volumes have been organized to make it generally fairly simple to locate the main articles relevant for one’s research interests. However the placement of some individual articles might not always be completely self-evident. Moreover the sheer mass of material and information provided by the series makes a cumulative index a necessary accompanying resource. Further given the scope of the series it was inevitable that some names or topics are mentioned more than once in the series in different places beyond the main article ostensibly dedicated to them. The purpose of these indices is thus to help the readers to find an easy and direct way to the topics of their interest in the rich universe of Kierkegaard research. The material of the indices is divided into three tomes: Tome I is the Index of Names from A to K Tome II covers the Index of Names from L to Z while Tome III consists of the Index of Subjects and includes a complete overview of all the volumes tomes and articles of the series. | Volume 21 Tome I: Cumulative Index Index of Names A-K GBP 38.99 1
Straddling Class in the Academy 26 Stories of Students Administrators and Faculty From Poor and Working-Class Backgrounds and Their Compel Why do we feel uncomfortable talking about class? Why is it taboo? Why do people often address class through coded terminology like trashy classy and snobby? How does discriminatory language or how do conscious or unconscious derogatory attitudes or the anticipation of such behaviors impact those from poor and working class backgrounds when they straddle class? Through 26 narratives of individuals from poor and working class backgrounds – ranging from students to multiple levels of administrators and faculty both tenured and non-tenured – this book provides a vivid understanding of how people can experience and straddle class in the middle upper or even elitist class contexts of the academy. Through the powerful stories of individuals who hold many different identities-and naming a range of ways they identify in terms of race ethnicity gender sexuality age ability and religion among others-this book shows how social class identity and classism impact people's experience in higher education and why we should focus more attention on this dimension of identity. The book opens by setting the foundation by examining definitions of class discussing its impact on identity and summarizing the literature on class and what it can tell us about the complexities of class identity its fluidity sometimes performative nature and the sense of dissonance it can provoke. This book brings social class identity to the forefront of our consciousness conversations and behaviors and compels those in the academy to recognize classism and reimagine higher education to welcome and support those from poor and working class backgrounds. Its concluding chapter proposes means for both increasing social class consciousness and social class inclusivity in the academy.

Sensing Art in the Atmosphere Elemental Lures and Aerosolar Practices This book engages artistic interventions in the aerial elements to investigate the aesthetics and politics of atmosphere. Sensing Art in the Atmosphere: Elemental Lures and Aerosolar Practices traces the potential of artistic community-driven experiments to amplify our sensing of atmosphere marrying attentions to atmospheric affect with visceral awareness of the materials institutions and processes hovering in the air. Drawing on six years of practice-led research with artistic and activist initiatives Museo Aero Solar and Aerocene initiated by artist Tomás Saraceno each chapter develops creative relations to atmosphere from the studio to stratospheric currents. Through narrative-led writing the voices of artists and collaborators are situated and central. In dialogue with these aerographic stories and sites the book develops a notion of elemental lures: the sensual and imaginative propositions of aerial atmospheric and meteorological phenomena. The promise of elemental lures Engelmann suggests is to reconcile our sensing of atmosphere with the myriad social cultural and political forces suspended in it. Through tales of floating journeys shared envelopes of breath and surreal levitations the book foregrounds the role of art in crafting alternative modes of perceiving moving and imagining (in) the air. The book ends with a call for elemental experiments in the geohumanities. It makes an important and original contribution to elemental geographies the geohumanities and interdisciplinary scholarship on air and atmosphere. | Sensing Art in the Atmosphere Elemental Lures and Aerosolar Practices GBP 38.99 1
