Unemployment, Crime, and Offenders

Unemployment, Crime, and Offenders

The preoccupation with the unemployment-crime link has meant that a number of other concerns about the way that unemployment affects the criminal justice system, and ways of dealing with offenders, have been largely ignored. This book, originally published in 1989, brings together research from a variety of sources relating to unemployment. This research provides much information on the practical, day-to-day experiences of dealing with offenders at a time of high unemployment and the related policy implications.

Construct

Construct

TAYLOR FRANCIS LTD

Construct introduces a new category of architecture and engineering in our cities. These structures are highly visible yet often ignored, large-scale and built without traditional designers. They are characterised by substantial technical innovation and expertise, embedded in the everyday lives of thousands of urban citizens, and serve as embodiments of cultural and political meanings. These constructions represent an overlooked but significant aspect of our urban landscape, combining technical advancement with cultural significance despite their often anonymous design origins. The opening chapter introduces “Construct” as an architectural, academic and methodological concept, including its interdisciplinary approach combining history, critical theory, ethnography and visual studies. Six independent chapters then explore specific recent manifestations around the world – the Øresund bridge between Copenhagen and Malmö, tower cranes in Dubai, Shibuya pedestrian intersection in Tokyo, Venice skatepark in Los Angeles, Limehouse Link tunnel in London and the Singapore Flyer observation wheel in Singapore. Each is interpreted in its own context and as a manifestation of its shared architectural typology worldwide. Construct will appeal to those interested in the architecture, urbanism and experience of contemporary cities worldwide, and particularly those working in the fields of architecture, media studies, planning, sociology and urban geography.

In this concise yet profound memoir, I share a true and vivid snapshot of a transformative period in my life, spanning from 1993 to the present. This journey begins with a life-altering car crash, an event that reshaped my existence in unimaginable ways. The book candidly explores my arduous path to recovery, weaving together the pain and the unexpected humour that accompanied me along the way. Delving into four key areas of my experiences, I offer a rich tapestry of insights gained. The narrative doesn't shy away from the raw and real, exploring various behavioural patterns and challenging situations I encountered, and my efforts to understand and confront them. Encouraged by friends and colleagues who found my stories both intriguing and inspiring, I was motivated to pen this book. My aim has been to encapsulate the essence of these experiences, maintaining a gripping narrative that leaves readers eagerly turning each page, hungry for more.

His beginnings were from a darkness beyond clear memory, snatches of understanding coming to him only gradually, over the years - in periodic dreams, or more usually in nightmares. What he did recall very vividly however, were the childhood assaults and traumas, and the beatings that were to make him the man he would turn out to be - a wandering man; on the face of it, a plausible smiling man, but in reality, an unpredictable and highly dangerous man.And the road he was now travelling, they called Retribution.Women, invariably the vulnerable and the lonely, he would seek out, in order to seduce - with the ultimate aim of breaking their hearts. And men who stood in his way, he was prepared to kill if he had to. And then he would meet the woman who would be more than a match for him - a woman who would turn the tables and change both of their lives - forever.
Being Roadworthy: The secrets of how to avoid road collisions: Road-user framework: The lost purpose: competent road risk management
Avoiding road traffic collisions is my passion. As an Advanced and Defensive driver trainer working in the fleet sector; after many post-collision courses and on-road training sessions, I feel I know the key factors in common collisions to avoid them altogether. We investigate these and sum them up in five chapters focusing on the 'five-star road user' model; 1 Reducing Surprise 2 Taking responsibility (rather than attributing blame)3 Remaining focused and mindful on the task4 Designing your way out of problems before they happen5 Continuously learning from your experiences.We delve into human behaviour, psychology and mindsets which hinder or improve your chances of having a collision. We make some odd decisions when using the road; many of which we are unaware of, are you?Even if you are aware of these, or you have completed further driver training, some of these techniques (designs to avoid a collision) are ones I have learnt or developed over the years of experience. Designed for driving instructors, advanced drivers, cyclists, motorcyclists and anyone interested in avoiding a road-collision. Most techniques apply to all.
How it's Gonna Suck and Why: A Beginner's Guide to Teaching Abroad
"Most of it's gonna suck."If I could travel back in time to the beginning of my teaching experience, that's what I'd tell myself.I got into the English business-as I assume most people do-because I saw it as a freebie for travelling. I didn't precisely like travelling, but somehow I'd gotten it into my head that travelling would be the next best thing to do after college. Nor did I have much of a clue about teaching aside from a month-long preparatory course I'd taken shortly beforehand. Heck, as a virtual shut-in, that was the extent of my experience in human interaction. I was launched into a foreign environment with little knowledge about how to handle a normal conversation, much less a class. Every day I struggled to hold my nerves together and even make eye contact with the students. I should've crashed and burned, but by some miracle I survived. Fast-forward five years and three countries-Japan, Mexico, Russia-and I'm still at a loss for how I pulled it off. Even so, I wouldn't slap my younger self on the back and say "you're gonna make it, kid. Somehow." Far from it, I'd save myself the stress of those five years by detailing how it was gonna suck and why. If you couldn't figure it from the title, that's the aim of this book. I'm at a prime point in my life for complaining and before the measured dispassion of adulthood gets to me, I'd like to commit my disillusionment to paper. Consider it an open letter to myself and to anyone who might be in a similar position.
