[189]-204) and index What is penal populism? -- Underlying causes -- Penal populism, the media and information technology -- Penal populism and crime control -- Competing and complimentary influences on penal strategy and thought -- Is penal populism inevitable? This book argues that governments have increasingly allowed penal populism to impact on policy development and that there has been less reliance on the expertise of civil servants and academics. This book shows that the roots of penal populism lie in the collapse of trust in the modern institutions of government, the decline of deference and the growth of ontological insecurity, along with new media technologies helping to spread it. This book is an expose of current crime policy development and poses important questions for the future. It will be essential reading for students, researchers and professionals working in criminology and crime policy. --BOOK JACKET Sentences (Criminal procedure) -- Public opinion Punishment -- Public opinion Criminal justice, Administration of -- Public opinion Crime -- Government policy -- Public opinion Populism

Elleman, Andrew Forbes, and David Rosenberg This monograph is intended as a contribution to both scholarship and professional naval thinking it is an academic and comparative examination of twelve selected case studies from maritime history used to illuminate a range of concepts and uses of piracy suppression. The twelve case studies provide the basis for the conclusions, an approach that provides a more thorough understanding of the uses and limitations of naval antipiracy operations in the context of new maritime technologies and within a wider range of modern national policy goals than might otherwise be achievable. Above all this collection provides a sound basis for comparative analysis of varying historical experiences that can stimulate new and original thinking about a basic but often overlooked naval duty. --Foreword Also available via the Internet Piracy -- Prevention -- Case studies Maritime terrorism -- Prevention -- Case studies Piracy -- East Asia Piracy -- South China Sea Piracy -- South Asia Piracy -- Southeast Asia Piracy -- Africa

A poverty of rights : citizenship and inequality in twentieth-century Rio de Janeiro

Between 1930 and 1964, Brazilian law dramatically extended its range and power, and citizenship began to signify real political, economic, and civil rights for common people. And yet, even in Rio de Janeiro - Brazil's national capital until 1960 - this process did not include everyone. Rio's poorest residents sought with hope, imagination, and will to claim myriad forms of citizenship as their own. Yet, blocked by bureaucratic obstacles or ignored by unrealistic laws, they found that their poverty remained one of rights as well as resources. At the end of a period most notable for citizenship's expansion, Rio's poor still found themselves akin to illegal immigrants in their own land, negotiating important components of their lives outside of the boundaries and protections of laws and rights, their vulnerability increasingly critical to important networks of profit and political power. In exploring this process, Brodwyn Fischer offers a critical re-interpretation not only of Brazil's Vargas regime, but also of Rio's twentieth-century urban history and of the broader significance of law, rights, and informality in the lives of the very poor Poor -- Civil rights -- Brazil -- Rio de Janeiro -- History -- 20th century Equality -- Brazil -- Rio de Janeiro -- History -- 20th century Rio de Janeiro (Brazil) -- Politics and government -- 20th century Rio de Janeiro (Brazil) -- Social conditions -- 20th century Rio de Janeiro (Brazil) -- Economic conditions -- 20th century Brazil -- Politics and government -- 20th century Poverty -- Brazil -- 20th century

Subject: Translated from the Italian An infamous Renaissance classic, The Prince shocked Europe upon publication with its ruthless tactics for gaining absolute power and its abandonment of conventional morality. Niccolo Machiavelli even came to be regarded by some as an agent of the Devel, his name taken for the intriguer Machevill of Jacobean tragedy. For his treatise on statecraft Machiavelli drew upon his own experience of office under the turbulent Florentine republic, rejecting traditional values of political theory and recognizing the complicated, transient nature of political life. Concerned not with lofty ideals, but with a regime that would last, The Prince has become the Bible of realpolitik, and still retains its power to alarm and instruct --Cover, p. 2 Political science -- Early works to 1800 Political ethics -- Early works to 1800

The works of art featured here are both instantly familiar and profoundly mysterious. Revolutionary in their conception, and iconic years after their execution, they each have their own compelling stories. For behind the beautiful canvases and sculptures are tales of political revolution, wartime escapes, massive ego clashes, social scandal, financial wrangling and shocking violence Masterpiece, Artistic Art -- History Art and society Art appreciation Art criticism Art, Renaissance Impressionism (Art) Post-impressionism (Art) Sculpture Botticelli, Sandro, 1444 or 5-1510.
