    Justice and Legitimacy in Policing critically analyzes the state of American policing and evaluates proposed solutions to reform/transform the institution, such as implementing body-worn cameras, increasing diversity in police agencies, the problem of crimmigration, limiting qualified immunity, and the abolitionist movement.Considering the changes that have occurred in our sociopolitical climate, policymakers, scholars, and the public are in need of a book that focuses on the American policing institution in a comprehensive yet critical manner. Each chapter is devoted to a specific area of policing that has either received criticism for the problems it may create or has been proposed to effect reform. The chapters are sequenced such that readers are introduced to a spectrum of topics to expand the discourse on changes needed to achieve equitable policing. The book also encourages readers to consider the idea that achieving justice and legitimacy in policing cannot happen as the institution is now formulated, and it invites readers to use the topics discussed in each chapter to envision transformative propositions.Justice and Legitimacy in Policing is intended to engage policymakers and practitioners as well as interested members of the public. The scope of this book also makes it a valuable resource for academics and students.

    In einer erstmaligen Gesamtdarstellung widmet sich dieses Buch der Frage, ob und gegebenenfalls inwieweit es zulässig ist, Kinder als Spender von Körperbestandteilen heranzuziehen oder sogar eigens zu diesem Zweck zu zeugen. Den Ausgangspunkt bildet dabei das Spannungsverhältnis, dass die Kinder zwar zunächst den Befugnissen der Eltern unterstehen, diese jedoch die kindlichen Interessen nicht unberücksichtigt lassen dürfen und elterliche Entscheidungsbefugnisse überdies mit Heranwachsen des Kindes zunehmend in den Hintergrund treten müssen. Die je nach Spendekonstellation unterschiedlich intensiven Eingriffe in die kindlichen Rechte, aber auch die verschiedenen Abstufungen eines möglichen Nutzens für das Spenderkind werden herausgearbeitet und mit Blick auf ihre medizinischen, ethischen und rechtlichen Implikationen analysiert. Zudem wird geprüft, ob in Deutschland derzeit eine widerspruchsfreie Rechtslage hinsichtlich der Erlaubnis respektive des Verbots einzelner Spendeformen durch Kinder existiert oder Handlungs- bzw. Harmonisierungsbedarf besteht. Die untersuchten Rechtsgebiete erstrecken sich vom Medizin- über das Zivil-, hier insbesondere das Familienrecht, bis hin zum Verfassungsrecht; der thematische Bogen reicht dabei von Neugeborenen bis Jugendlichen, Eigen- bis Fremdspenden, Blut- bis Organspenden und schließlich bis hin zur höchst umstrittenen Selektion sog. ¿Retterkinder¿ mittels PID.

    Develop a sense of safety and connection in our youthResearch shows that a sense of belonging has a profound effect on the physical, mental, and social well-being of children and adolescents. Yet, current events, including the decline of community and rising tensions over racial and economic inequalities, have endangered that fragile and critical component-and nowhere is this felt more acutely than in schools.In Belonging, the author, who has spent decades working with the most challenging students, provides research-based strategies to strengthen relationships, build inclusive classrooms, develop trust, and foster a sense of psychological safety. Readers will find: Vignettes demonstrating how belonging applies to a variety of learning contexts Research around mindsets, the development of empathy, and community-building Sections dedicated to equity and inclusion Strategies teachers can directly apply in their classroomsWith his deep knowledge of education, behavior, and neuroscience, Dustin Bindreiff provides a fresh look at the troubling issues our students face and provides practical strategies for building a more hopeful future.

    "This is a "big idea" book that is meant to inspire health care leaders, policy makers, and other stakeholders to take a good look at our system as a whole and strive for something better, rather than continuing to focus solely on insurance reforms. The author has excellent credentials and has been involved in health policy reform efforts for many years"--

    This book introduces readers to the concept of territory as it applies to law while demonstrating the particular work that territory does in organizing property relations.Territories can be found in all societies and at all scales, although they take different forms. The concern here is on the use of territories in organizing legal relations. Law, as a form of power, often works through a variety of territorial strategies, serving multiple legal functions, such as attempts at creating forms of desired behaviour. Landed property, in Western society, is often highly territorial, reliant on sharply policed borders and spatial exclusion. But rather than thinking of territory as obvious and given or as a natural phenomenon, this book focuses particularly on its relation to property to argue that territory is both a social product, and a specific technology that organizes social relations. That is: territory is not simply an outcome of property relations but a strategic means by which such relations are communicated, imagined, legitimized, enforced, naturalized and contested.Accessible to students, this book will be of interest to those working in the areas of sociolegal studies, geography, urban studies, and politics.

    Policing the Global South provides scholarship which further transnationalises and democratises ideas about policing practices and philosophies, highlighting renovations in approaches to policing studies, and injecting innovative perspectives into the study of policing from scholars positioned on the 'periphery'.Criminological knowledge depolarisation underscores a conscious effort by scholars from the Global South to increase intellectual knowledge focused on developing context-specific responses to issues not aligned to Northern ideological positions and specific to the non-Northern context. Such shifts draw attention to the expanse of spaces beyond Northern centres rife with challenges unlike any specific to those experienced or conceptualised by scholars from the Global North with an applied Northern criminological lens. Applying a postcolonial lens to empirical knowledge from country-specific cases in former colonies in Africa, Asia, the Caribbean, the Pacific, and Latin America, this book examines how policing issues not aligned to Northern ideological positions and specific to non-Northern contexts are addressed. The primary purpose is to share innovations in the field of policing - service provision, threats to security, crime responses, justice and international trends - developed in postcolonial developing-country contexts. Given the aim of the book and the contributors' own research on issues of policing across the globe, it discusses themes including but not limited to the colonial legacies and their impact on policing; how plural regulatory systems and partnerships are navigated by the police; the linkages between access to justice, community perceptions, and police legitimacy; innovations and challenges in organisational reform, crime prevention, and community partnerships; and the expanding roles of police organisations in the Global South. While each chapter presents a policing issue in a country within a specific part of the Global South, the book highlights how important it is to frame responses based on contextual realities informed by an awareness of the past and present, with a goal of informing the future.Delivering a much-needed introduction to those specialising in policing in developing countries, this book is invaluable reading for academics and students of criminology, criminal justice, governance, policy, and IR, as well as professionals in policing organizations across the globe.

    This volume examines cases of accommodation and recognition of minority practices: cultural, religious, ethnic, linguistic or otherwise, under state law. The collection presents selected situations and experiences from a variety of regions and from different legal traditions around the world in which diverse societal stakeholders and political actors have engaged in processes leading to the elaboration of creative, innovative and, to a certain extent, sustainable solutions via accommodative laws or practices. Representing multiple disciplines and methodologies and written by esteemed scholars, the work analyses the pitfalls and successes of such accommodative practices, presenting insights into how solutions could or could not be achieved. The chapters address the sustainability and transferability of such solutions in order to further the dialogue in both scholarly and policy spheres. The book will be essential reading for academics, researchers, and policy-makers in the areas of minority rights, legal anthropology, law and religion, legal philosophy, and law and migration.
