An Assessment Of The Terrorist Threat To Use A Nuclear (Ind) Or Radiological (Rdd) Device In An Attack, Brian Kingshott
An Assessment Of The Terrorist Threat To Use A Nuclear (Ind) Or Radiological (Rdd) Device In An Attack, Brian Kingshott
Brian F. Kingshott
This paper will discuss terrorism from the perspective of a terrorist organisation acquiring nuclear material to build weapons and how security of radiological material world wide will minimise the risk of such devices being used. It will discuss the need to improve security at nuclear waste processing and storage sites and the adequacy of current security. It will also discuss the phenomenon of suicide attacks by the bomb carriers and the role of the media in informing and educating the general public of the consequences should such a device containing nuclear material be detonated.

Social Skills Training: Effects On Behavior And Recidivism With First-Time Adjudicated Youth, Kathleen Bailey, James Ballard
Social Skills Training: Effects On Behavior And Recidivism With First-Time Adjudicated Youth, Kathleen Bailey, James Ballard
Kathleen Bailey
This study examines the effects of social skills training on a group of first-time adjudicated male offenders from the juvenile justice system. Three types of groups were used to evaluate the effects of such programs on behavioral change. These groups included youth who received: 1) social skills training with parents or guardians; 2) social skills training without parents or guardians; 3) no skills training. Differences in the scales and subscales scores from the Jesness Inventory standardized test were evaluated and analyzed in conjunction with the type of offenses (status, misdemeanor, and felony) for the three groups. This exploratory study yielded …

A Case Of Health Disparity, Donna Zucker
A Case Of Health Disparity, Donna Zucker
Donna M. Zucker
Although the incidence of hepatitis C virus (HCV) in women is only slightly less than in men, women are poorly represented in research trials. As a result, not much is known about them as a subgroup. The specific aims of this article were to report on the problem, study methods, and findings focusing on HCV-positive women's health beliefs, how they identify and understand their health and illness states, and their explanatory models of illness behavior. A pilot study using three focus groups was conducted with women in the community, in recovery, and incarcerated. Two groups emerged: those with and those …

The Myth Of The Juvenile Superpredator, Victor Kappeler, Karen Miller, Gary Potter
Vic Kappeler
"It is very hard for me, knowing that I'm going to spend the rest of my life in prison. I'm still a kid, and kids make mistakes. We can learn from our mistakes. But nowadays, all people want to do is send a kid to prison and throw away the key." --S.S., 16 year old sentenced to life without parole.
Police And Society: Touchstone Readings, Vic Kappeler
Police And Society: Touchstone Readings, Vic Kappeler
Vic Kappeler
The articles in this collection reveal fundamental assumptions about the relationship of the police to society. Articles were selected for both their complementary and their competing natures. They serve as touchstones for one another, measuring and questioning the value of previous conceptions about how policing fits into the broader social context. Many of the articles challenge the methods by which information was acquired, how practices evolved from that information, and the background assumptions that drove the construction of practices and theories. The editor's purpose in assembling this provocative volume is to facilitate systematic inquiry to help readers discover connections, to …
Constructing Crime: Perspectives On Making News And Social Problems, Victor Kappeler, Gary Potter
Constructing Crime: Perspectives On Making News And Social Problems, Victor Kappeler, Gary Potter
Vic Kappeler
This intriguing collection of articles explores the many actors, practices, and techniques involved in constructing the social reality of crime. The first section offers an overview of the issues associated with studying crime and the media. The next section explores the making of crime problems from gang rituals to less mature constructions of crime like road warriors. The final section looks at the effects of media constructions of crime. The frames through which crime is projected increase fear and shape perceptions of the amount of crime committed, the types of crime, who commits crimes, and what crimes are social problems. …

James B Johnston
When a drug dealer delivers illegal narcotics to the American maret place, he frequently uses out nation's roads.

This article agrees with the Court's ruling and argues that we as a society have a right and an obligatio n to protect ourselves from drug abuse and drug traffickers. Justice Stevens' opinionj provides a brilliant examination of judicial precedent coupled with …

Critical Issues In Police Civil Liability, Vic Kappeler
Critical Issues In Police Civil Liability, Vic Kappeler
Vic Kappeler
Building on the strength of previous editions, the fourth edition presents a well-conceived, clearly stated analysis of complex issues confronting law enforcement officers and administrators. Law enforcement duties sometimes place police officers in vulnerable positions regarding their legal obligations and expose them to charges of misconduct. Civil liability is an extremely expensive proposition for police officers, law enforcement agencies, governments, and—ultimately—taxpayers. Although substantial resources are often expended by the justice system to resolve liability cases, there are benefits to citizens. When the government assumes the responsibility to provide service or to protect the public, people injured by inadequate performance of …
Criminal Justice Theory: Toward Legitimacy And An Infrastructure, Peter Kraska
Criminal Justice Theory: Toward Legitimacy And An Infrastructure, Peter Kraska
Peter Kraska
Within Criminal Justice/Criminology, “theory” is generally assumed to be concerned with crime and crime rates. Studying criminal justice is tacitly, and sometimes explicitly, relegated to the narrow role of evaluative and descriptive scholarship. This article explores the reasons for our field’s failure to recognize the importance of developing an accessible and well‐recognized theoretical infrastructure not about crime, but criminal justice and crime control phenomena. It examines the complexity of our object of study when theorizing criminal justice and the efficacy of organizing criminal justice theory using multiple “theoretical orientations.” The conclusion stresses the essentiality of criminal justice theory, with particular …

Indigenous Peoples' Contributions To Cop-8 Of The Convention On Biological Diversity, Sam Grey
Indigenous Peoples' Contributions To Cop-8 Of The Convention On Biological Diversity, Sam Grey
Sam Grey
During the Seventh Conference of the Parties (COP-7), held in Malaysia in 2004, Indigenous Peoples made a significant impact on the negotiations between states in a number of key issue areas. Building on this success, and as a part of the preparations for COP-8, held in Brazil in 2006, the IIFB has decided to provide documentation detailing Indigenous Peoples’ experiences with the thematic areas under discussion. Hence, the effort to compile this set of case studies. These case studies are meant to synthesize Indigenous input into the different themes discussed at the Eighth Ordinary Meeting of the Conference of the …

Aftercare When There Is No Aftercare: Policy Solution And Evaluation Plan Proposal, Sharlette A. Kellum Ph.D.
Dr. Sharlette A. Kellum-Gilbert
Juvenile justice systems that release offenders without court-ordered supervision are not addressing the needs of parents as guardians over young law breakers. Help for parents needs to come from the professional community, the neighborhood, the school system, and the juvenile justice system. Hence, this paper proposes that a group of volunteers from these entities be assembled into a pilot program with the goal of reducing juvenile recidivism, relapse, and reincarceration. This program will aim to guide juvenile offenders into successful reintegration into the community and prevent reincarceration/relapse of youths released from juvenile corrections facilities with no court-ordered supervision. A developmental …
