Imprisoning Rationalities, Eileen Baldry, David Brown, Mark Brown, Chris Cunneen, Melanie Schwartz, Alex Steel

Imprisonment is a growth industry in Australia. Over the past 30-40 years all state and territory jurisdictions have registered massive rises in both the absolute numbers of those imprisoned and the per capita use of imprisonment as a tool of punishment and control. Yet over this period there has been surprisingly little criminological attention to the national picture of imprisonment in Australia and to understanding jurisdictional variation, change and continuity in broader theoretical terms. This article reports initial findings from the Australian Prisons Project, a multi-investigator Australian Research Council funded project intended to trace penal developments in Australia since about …

Criminal Laws: Materials And Commentary On Criminal Law And Process In Nsw, Alex Steel, David Brown, David Farrier, Sandra Egger, Luke Mcnamara, Michael Grewcock, Donna Spears
David C. Brown
The success of Criminal Laws lies both in its distinctive features and in its appeal to a range of readerships. As one review put it, it is simultaneously a “textbook, casebook, handbook and reference work”. As such it is ideal for criminal law and criminal justice courses as a teaching text, combining as it does primary sources with extensive critical commentary and a contextual perspective. It is likewise indispensable to practitioners for its detailed coverage of substantive law and its extensive references and inter-disciplinary approach make it a first point of call for researchers from all disciplines. This fifth edition …

Reflections And Perspectives On Reentry And Collateral Consequences, Michael Pinard
Michael Pinard
This essay addresses the continued and dramatic increase in the numbers of individuals released from correctional institutions and returning to communities across the United States. It provides a brief history of the collateral consequences of criminal convictions, and the ways in which these consequences impede productive reentry. It then highlights national and state efforts to address to persistent reentry obstacles and to better understand the range and scope of collateral consequences. It concludes by offering suggestions for reform.
The Mandatory Death Penalty And A Sparsely Worded Constitution, Jack Tsen-Ta Lee
The Mandatory Death Penalty And A Sparsely Worded Constitution, Jack Tsen-Ta Lee
Jack Tsen-Ta LEE
It was not unexpected that the Singapore Court of Appeal would reaffirm the constitutionality of the mandatory death penalty for certain forms of drug trafficking in Yong Vui Kong v Public Prosecutor [2010] 3 S.L.R 489. ... The appellant made submissions based on Articles 9(1) and 12(1) of the Constitution, which respectively guarantee rights to life and personal liberty, and to equality before the law and equal protection of the law. This note examines aspects of the Article 9(1) arguments.

Corrupção E Judiciário: A (In)Eficácia Do Sistema Judicial No Combate À Corrupção, Ivo T. Gico Jr., Carlos H. R. De Alencar

HÁ UMA PERCEPÇÃO GENERALIZADA NO BRASIL DE QUE FUNCIONÁRIOS PÚBLICOS CORRUPTOS NÃO SÃO PUNIDOS. NÃO OBSTANTE, ATÉ O MOMENTO, NÃO HÁ EVIDÊNCIAS EMPÍRICAS QUE APÓIEM ESSA AFIRMAÇÃO E MUITOS ARGUMENTAM QUE SE TRATA DE UMA PERCEPÇÃO EQUIVOCADA DECORRENTE DO AUMENTO DE MEDIDAS ANTICORRUPÇÃO. UMA DAS PRINCIPAIS RAZÕES PARA ESSA NOTÁVEL AUSÊNCIA É A GRANDE DIFICULDADE DE SE IDENTIFICAR CASOS COMPROVADOS DE CORRUPÇÃO PARA, ENTÃO, SE AVERIGUAR SE ELES FORAM OU NÃO PUNIDOS PELO SISTEMA JUDICIAL. ESTE ARTIGO USA O SISTEMA BRASILEIRO DE RESPONSABILIDADE TRÍPLICE COMO UM EXPERIMENTO NATURAL PARA MEDIR O DESEMPENHO DO SISTEMA JUDICIAL CONTRA CORRUPÇÃO. NOSSOS RESULTADOS MOSTRAM …
