Hypocrisy In International Criminal Justice

by Farhad Malekian

~~212,00€~~ 190,80€ 10% OFF

 The quandary of physical justice is the most paradoxical aspect of the philosophy of justice. It has the power to eliminate true justice. Physical justice continuously claims victims and deems those who demand the establishment of their rights as barbaric oppressors. The concept of moral justice is consistently perceived as being guilty of committing crimes, even though its primary objective is to defend all men. The application of physical justice in this manner can cause the depreciation and deterioration of moral values within the system of justice and ultimately lead to the suppression of true sources. If the adoption of international conventions is pointless, then we should not even ratify them to begin with. This reflects our pursuit of moral justice which aims at uniting the moral attitudes of men alongside the brutal physical exploitation. The monopolised principles of physical justice within the structure of the systems of international human rights and criminal justice have promoted the imposition of immoral supremacy. Arguing about the autonomous systems of justice at the international level is insincere and promotes the supremacy of atrocities. We must then ask: how useful are these monopolised principles of physical justice to human civilisation? This is an indispensable argument wherein the domination of the law, human rights law, resolutions of the UN, and, particularly, moral justice rely on the arbitrary decisions of deep states, i.e., the hidden criminal intrigues of governments.

Critical Women'S Issues

~~304,75€~~ 274,28€ 10% OFF

 This book covers deceptive ideological propositions, specious laws, and folklore, all of which maintain women’s continuing subjection. Chapter 1 is entitled Feminist Lens on Gender Violence: Patriarchal Hierarchy of Status and discusses how violence against women is likely rooted in the continuing transmission of patriarchal ideologies. Chapter 2 is entitled Violence Directed at Women: Re-Engineering Old Laws with Newly-Infused Ideologies and discusses how any law against violence, confected solely to punish incels committing violence against so-called ‘Stacys’ would fail the test of cogent pragmatic elaboration of appropriateness and justice. Chapter 3 is entitled The Misogyny of Incels: Ideological Narrative Transmission into Folklore, and it discovers, then discusses, men’s goals which have been made unreachable by insemination in ideological propositions of misogyny, and state sponsored misogyny which has been maintained by publicly debating terrorism risks to women. Chapter 4 is entitled A War Formula for Male Dominance: Ideology of Patriarchy and discusses how only one person could literally occupy, in a military sense, the production of affective guilt in other persons, and how this could be done by men in large power groups controlling patriarchal social structures. Chapter 5 entitled The Marital Rape Exemption: Chattel Slavery of Women by Coverture discovers the specious ideological conception of ‘marital unity’, arising from the Christian ‘one-flesh’ doctrine, combined with the common law legal fiction of ‘coverture’. Chapter 6 entitled Neofeudalism in Food Security: Patriarchal Coercion and Expropriation discusses that wwherever a feudal male worked, and had food expropriated from him by feudal Lords, so too, by the forces of patriarchal feudal hierarchy, did women suffer consequent food deprivation by expropriation, with this situation subsisting to this day in so-called inflationary food prices. Chapter 7 entitled Aboriginal Women’s Complaints: Ignored in Judicial Discourse discusses Aboriginal womens’ narrative text whom all suffer instances of deceptive rhetoric to remove either their rights or the appendant correlative duties to their exigencies of life.

Understanding The Fentanyl Crisis

~~165,63€~~ 149,07€ 10% OFF

 Fentanyl and other synthetic opioids have devastated communities all over the United States, fueling the worst drug crisis in American history. Over 150 people die every day from overdoses related to synthetic opioids like fentanyl. America’s drug crisis is so severe compared to other countries because of its position in drug supply chains. Mexican cartels import synthetic chemicals from China and make synthetic drugs like fentanyl at very low cost, which are then smuggled through the southern border. Every day, transnational criminal organizations use America’s complex highway systems to smuggle illicit drugs, such as deadly fentanyl, into our country. These criminal organizations pose an enormous threat to the United States, as they undermine public safety and flood the streets with drugs.

Conundrums Of Paternalism In International Criminal Justice

by Farhad Malekian

~~212,00€~~ 190,80€ 10% OFF

 The Statute of the United Nations promotes a very disastrous image of the inequality of arms. If we conclude that the inequalities in Chapter VII of the Charter must be respected because states have given their consent, we can argue that the extraction of information through the use of torture is lawful since victims of torture have confirmed this statement. Ultimately, the contemporary modern bodies of international criminal justice and human rights are chained to a system of paternalism that has gradually infringed upon an independent taboo norm of dignity, which in turn represents the decree of immorality by a superior order. Paternalism is the successor to the traditional colonial rules of control and intends to guide governments as to what to do when it comes to their natural resources, security, and international legal personalities. Therefore, paternalism represents control through sanctions and resolutions. Paternalism also monopolises the basic principles of the legal discipline to promote political, military, and economic interests. The author coins new phrases "human-snaking rights" and "snaking justice" to express how paternalist governments impose rules and inject their dangerous, venomous fangs into legal and political resolutions against other governments. These resolutions function like saws because it does not matter which direction a member state chooses, since they will ultimately be cut into pieces. The veto of paternalism is a conundrum that poses a potential existential threat to international criminal jurisprudence when it comes to serious questions of criminal justice. Paternalism imposes its decisions on groups, governments, prosecutors, and judges of international criminal courts. Those who fail to listen are sanctioned through various means.

Concreting Righteousness In International Criminal Justice

by Farhad Malekian

~~212,00€~~ 190,80€ 10% OFF

 The philosophy of being righteous essentially sustains our existence, questioning the sphere of morality in man. It reaches the colossal connotation of the royal essence of our natural virtue—if it exists—which can then institute the soul of all international human rights and criminal conventions. No matter what we include in our arguments and reasoning in relation to the content of justice itself, it is the sugarcoated perception of the improper use of our obligations that undermines its major philosophy. All divisive interpretations of the nature of rights and justice ultimately reveal how fragile our human rights ecosphere is and why there is a lack of criminal accountability for those who commit core international crimes. The truth is that justice is served without using any metaphysics of categorical righteousness. Consequently, the axiomatic merit of justice remains conceptually indistinct, as it cannot face the noble spirit of the forum of humanity. Justice becomes a simple metaphor. The very merits of being righteous decline, and the actual notions of cruel injustice escalate. This is not my assumption, nor is it the judgment of national or international courts. It is proven, it is seen, and it is waged. We will witness that those very major and invaluable provisions of justice have been recycled "in the name of humanity" to slaughter populations of millions in order to gain control of their resources.

Free Will And Determinism In Criminology And Criminal Justice

by Anthony Walsh

108,65€ + 10% CARD

 Few issues bedevil criminology and criminal justice as much as free will versus determinism. It goes to the heart of the character of the people they deal with and how we should respond to them. People are held morally responsible for what they do only if we believe that they have the ability to make reasoned choices to act morally. Liberals tend to hold an external locus of control and are skeptical of free will, and conservatives tend to favor an internal locus of control and embrace free will. This liberal-conservative divide reveals itself in the theories they favor as the best explanations of criminal behavior. Liberals favor explanations external to criminals such as an unfair economic system or criminal justice bias; conservatives tend to favor internal explanations such as low self-control or lack of empathy. In terms of responding to criminal behavior, there have been calls to abandon the idea of punishment and abolish prisons. Liberals may tend to view this as humanitarian while conservatives will tend to view them as incredibly naïve. The greater tendency of liberals to hold an external locus of control and their skepticism about free will lead them to view people’s behavior as largely beyond their control, which accounts for their punishment abolitionist stance. The greater tendency of conservatives to believe in free will and an internal locus of control leads to a more punitive stance toward criminals. Many issues that divide liberals and conservatives in criminology-criminal justice may be traced to their beliefs about free will and determinism.

Race And Crime: A Conservative View

by Anthony Walsh

258,38€ + 10% CARD

 In addition to being one of the few books offering a conservative viewpoint on race and crime, this book differs from others about race and crime in a number of ways. Although concepts, data, and explanations are dispersed throughout, it is divided into three broad categories: Conceptual, Statistical Data, and Explanation. The first concept it looks at is the different mindsets and temperaments of liberals and conservatives that have been noted ever since Plato and Aristotle. It has been consistently shown that liberals and conservatives typically differ in their loci of control: external and internal, respectively. Differences in the locus of control lead to quite different interpretations of raw data. It then looks at the concept of race and whether or not it exists. This issue is examined in two chapters; the first in terms of molecular genetics, and the second in terms of evolutionary theory. Then, the concepts of racism and poverty are addressed. Criminological statistical data is analyzed and crime is examined in a cross-cultural context. Explanations for the crime data are proposed.

Conscience Of Lawyers In International Criminal Law: The Burden Of Doppelgangers

by Farhad Malekian

304,75€ + 10% CARD

 Empowering ethical codes is vital in all branches of law because without these codes, we would be unable to differentiate between right and wrong in our personal judgments. Lawyers can either be the most precious or most precarious parties in a criminal case—depending on the state of their conscience. In certain cases, immorality replaces morality, and legal norms become pawns in a game, the goal of which is to serve the economic interests of lawyers. Lawyers become a greater threat to the truth when they support the establishment of special tribunals meant to hide the truth, such as was seen in Iraq, or when they receive payment in order to cover up genocide in places such as Myanmar and in the territories of the superpowers. Such lawyers then turn around and condemn the same crimes in places such as China. They speak out against crimes against humanity carried out by the Iranian government, but do not say a single word about the crimes against humanity, war crimes, and genocide committed by the Saudi Arabian, Israeli, American, French, and British governments. Here, doppelgänger puppet attorneys do not present the true image of justice, but rather work to convince the international public that their brutal clients are innocent. The situation becomes even more complicated when we are dealing with very sensitive questions of international criminal justice under various criminal procedures directed by lawyers in the ICJ, the ICC, or in ad hoc tribunals. What is the nature of integrity, impartiality, conscience, truth, and payments, and why are lawyers increasingly being sponsored and directed by outsiders? This book reveals the forbidden truth— an embarrassment and moral weakness of conscience.

Conscience Of Prosecutors In International Criminal Law: The Heart Of The Matter

by Farhad Malekian

258,38€ + 10% CARD

 This book evaluates the resting pulse of national and international criminal justice in conjunction with the actual definition of the truth which burdens prosecutors. Prosecutors have several valuable, yet inconspicuous tasks which are significant to criminal procedure. In criminal justice, the conscience of justice is based on the pursuit of the truth by following the evidence. As a rule of genuine judgment, we seek to discuss the principle of truth and its enforcement in the proceedings of criminal justice. The perception of moral law and its imperative function governing the theory of ethical obligations, responsibilities, and duties of the prosecutor in the criminal jurisdiction therefore represent the primary starting point for all of our judgments. Prosecutors should actively ensure that both powerful and powerless criminals are brought to justice. The main objective of the statute of the permanent International Criminal Court (ICC) claims to uphold the high moral precedent which must be set by the Office of the Prosecutor. However, the actual practice of the ICC has instead led to millions of deaths, including those of innocent children, as well as to the destruction of countries whose protection is not considered to be in "the interest of justice." If the ICC wishes to establish justice for victims, then the deterrence of impunity for any criminal should be its priority. The ICC should not become a pawn of the political superpowers or the platform through which prosecutors can misuse classified documents to serve their personal interests. The ultimate nature of justice cannot be comprehensive if impartial validity is not the permanent foundation of the core pillars in all criminal proceedings. This book is recommended to anyone who concerns themselves with legal questions of international criminal justice and its efficacy.

Orchestrating Diversity In International Criminal Justice

by Farhad Malekian

258,38€ + 10% CARD

 The scope of criminal justice has to include the body of equal norms which have to be protected. The basic elements of authoritarianism, universality, complementarity, and pluralism should not be employed by superior powers and enforced within the procedures and values of our criminal charter. A pure criminal jurisdiction ought to have its own independent honour and its own unified diverse values including: righteousness, innocence, virtue, honesty, and the preservation of objectivity in legal judgments. At the same time, the notion of diversity should not create an artificial equality in place of authentic, dynamic protection. It is of no essential significance which criminal justice measures are exercised by a court if the rulings of the court are based on clear evidence, and most importantly, if the court has not granted immunity for major criminals through impunity as a result of corrupt proceedings. It is the independent character of criminal justice which earns it its high level of respect. The existence of pure values is the natural and essential requirement for a court and allows it to be qualified as a body with ethical and moral character. A court should not be run through the threat of force or through monopolisation, but rather with trust. Furthermore, the courts are morally required to resist enmeshing themselves in the authoritarian exploitation of criminal justice. Working towards this goal should be imperative in the mechanism of criminal jurisprudence. This is the most plausible method for decreasing the number of victims of core international crimes and achieving pluralist values of diversity.

Time Served: Perspectives On Incarcerated Women And Their Children

by Zina Mcgee

125,88€ + 10% CARD

 Using personal interview accounts, focus group discussions, and semi-structured questionnaires analyzed from a sample of female long-term jail inmates, this book focuses on understanding the experiences of mothers in confinement, particularly with regard to coping with separation from children. The chapters examine the extent to which familial background characteristics (i.e., living situation while growing up, family history of incarceration, and parental abuse of drugs and alcohol) relate to the female inmate’s own circumstances including abuse prior to incarceration, history of drug and/or alcohol abuse and physical illness. Specific race/ethnicity, age, and social class differences regarding these familial background characteristics and the female inmate’s own patterns of abuse and victimization are also explored. Additionally, the book describes the methods of treatment including drug/alcohol therapy, mental health counseling, medical care, group counseling, parenting classes, and reunification counseling, and the differences that exist regarding effective treatment and the female offender’s familial background. Emphasis is placed on the mechanisms that the female inmates use to cope with their incarceration, and the specific factors that relate to their use of drugs/alcohol, including previous sexual, emotional, and physical abuse. Investigations also focus on the type of drugs used prior to incarceration, in addition to policy implications for criminal legal processing of female inmates with children, many of whom engage in drug-related crimes to escape adverse, abusive situations during childhood and into adulthood. Finally, select chapters include an expansion of the work on mothers to investigate patterns of behavioral and emotional adjustment outcomes among children and adolescents experiencing maternal incarceration using data drawn from interviews and surveys as well as a national sample.

Implementation Of International Anti-Corruption Standards In Laws And Legal Practices Of The Russian Federation

108,65€ + 10% CARD

 The book deals with the review and analysis of current corruption risks and related risks. The advantage of this book is its versatility which is achieved by means of consideration of the best global and regional practices in the development and implementation of anti-corruption laws, and at the same time, the applied orientation and clear definition of the subject of research - anticorruption efforts in Russia. The book consists of three sections. Section 1 contains a general description of international anti-corruption legislation and related risks. Here, the authors discuss universal international and regional anti-corruption standards, and identify corruption risks in Russian laws. Section 2 presents the review of contemporary practice of introducing international anti-corruption standards into Russian laws. This section formulates the concept and identifies the structure and features of the implementation of international standards in Russian anti-corruption laws. International anti-corruption standards in the civil service law of Russia, in the administrative law of Russia, in the civil and criminal law of Russia are discussed. Section 3 deals with the process of implementing international anti-corruption standards in Russia''s jurisprudence. The legal views of the Russian courts on anti-corruption issues are defined. The administrative practice of applying Russian anti-corruption rules in Russia through the prism of fundamental changes and the relationship to international standards is analyzed. The anti-corruption case law in Russia is analyzed. The book''s target audience is scholars (legal scholars) who inquire into matters of development and application of anti-corruption standards, as well as statesmen and public officials: legislators that develop and approve anti-corruption standards, as well as law enforcement agencies (especially judges) that enforce these standards. In this book, representatives of the target audience will be able to find answers to their questions about how international anti-corruption standards are refracted (transformed) through the prism of domestic legislation, as shown through the example of present-day Russia. The Russian experience can be of some interest and prove useful in the development and improvement of the anti-corruption regulatory framework in some other countries, in particular, in developing countries of the world. Hence, this book can be used as a "road map" for the development of anti-corruption legislation in a modern state.

Book Of Remarkable Criminals

364,38€ + 10% CARD

 "Convicts represent those wrong-doers who have taken to a particular form of wrong-doing punishable by law. Of the larger army of bad men they represent a minority, who have been found out in a peculiarly unsatisfactory kind of misconduct. There are many men, some lying, unscrupulous, dishonest, others cruel, selfish, vicious, who go through life without ever doing anything that brings them within the scope of the criminal code, for whose offences the laws of society provide no punishment... We must be content to study in the microcosm of ordinary crime those instincts, selfish, greedy, brutal which, exploited often by bad men, have wrought such havoc to the happiness of mankind. It is not too much to say that in every man there dwell the seeds of crime; whether they grow or are stifled in their growth by the good that is in us is a chance mysteriously determined. As children of nature we must not be surprised if our instincts are not all that they should be." - From the Introduction of this book, originally published in 1918.

From My Cold Dead Hands: Why Americans Won'T Give Up Their Guns

by Michael R. Weisser

172,25€ + 10% CARD

 This book covers the two arguments made about guns in the United States today. On the one hand, pro-gun advocates claim that the benefit of gun ownership as protection from crime outweighs the risks of intentional and accidental gun injuries. On the other hand, most gun violence researchers claim that the risks of intentional and accidental gun injuries outweigh the benefits of owning a gun. Based on original surveys of gun owners and non-gun owners, primary data from medical and law-enforcement sources, summaries of noted research from both perspectives and personal experiences culled from more than 50 years in the gun business, this book explains why gun control advocates and gun rights advocates are unable to find common ground to develop regulatory policies acceptable to both sides. The Introduction and Chapter One define gun violence in numeric and demographic terms - where gun violence occurs, who are the perpetrators and the victims, and the accuracy of the data is the numerical data used by both sides to support their solutions to the problem. Chapter Two compares gun violence in the United States to gun violence in other countries and challenges the usual argument connecting our rate of gun violence to the high per capita rate of gun ownership. Chapter Three covers the development of the regulatory system, particularly the Gun Control Act of 1968, and discusses the results of a regulatory philosophy that seeks to control the behavior of gun owners rather than the design of guns, the latter being typical of every other developed country. Chapter Four compares gun control strategies of the gun rights and gun control movements, and Chapter Five looks at strategies to control gun violence committed by unlawful gun owners. Chapter Six analyzes the activities of the regulatory agency and the ATF, and Chapter Seven looks at how the gun making industry operates in ways that create both regulatory opportunities and difficulties. Chapter Eight is a discussion about the 2nd Amendment, in particular how both liberal and conservative explanations about the meaning of the amendment misread its most important point. Chapter Nine and the Conclusion are based on national surveys conducted for this book that highlight the differences between gun owners and non-gun owners regarding proper regulations, control of violence and gun risk. This book is not an attempt at advocacy. It presents a comprehensive summary of relevant research and analysis of new data to give a comprehensive view of gun violence so that advocates on both sides can be better informed about the issues which need to be addressed.

Deviance In Business: Seriousness Of Harmful Occupational And Corporate Convenience

by Petter Gottschalk

~~258,38€~~ 232,54€ 10% OFF

 This book addresses the seriousness of harmful occupational and corporate convenience by deviance in business. At the lower end of seriousness, scholars found that business deviance tends to be perceived as and treated as corporate irresponsibility and not as misconduct, wrongdoing, offending, or law violation. Some studies in Europe have shown that the public apply criteria that regard corporate wrongdoing as a very low enforcement priority. The issue of business deviance seriousness relates both to lack of compliance and lack of conformance. Compliance refers to obeying the formal and informal rules, regulations, and norms in force at a given time and place. Conformance refers to meeting and potentially exceeding societal and other informal norms and obligations. As argued by scholars, organizational theory has long emphasized the importance of conformity to prevailing norms, rules and laws. In this book, the term crime is used in the criminological sense of both compliance and conformance, where the requirement is that the act is bad, and the actor should be punished.
