There continues to be a remarkable revival in academic interest in Carl Schmitt's thought within politics and social theory but this is the first book to address his thought from an explicitly legal theoretical perspective. Transcending the prevailing one-sided and purely historical focus on Schmitt’s significance for debates that took place in the Weimar Republic 1919-1933, this book addresses the actual and potential significance of Schmitt's thought for controversies within contemporary Anglo-American legal theory that have emerged during the past three decades. These include: the critique of liberal forms of legal positivism; the relative ‘indeterminacy’ of legal doctrine and the need for an explicitly interpretative approach to its range of meanings, their scope and policy rationale; the centrality of discretion and judicial law-making within the legal process; the important role played by ideological prejudices and assumptions in legal reasoning; the reinterpretation of law as a form of strategically disguised politics; the legal theoretical critique of universalistic approaches to "human" rights and associated liberal-cosmopolitan 'ideologies of humanity,' including the rhetoric of 'humanitarian intervention'; and the limitations of liberal constitutionalism and liberalism more generally as an approach to law. In Carl Schmitt: Law as Politics, Ideology and Strategic Myth, the author provides an overview and assessment of Schmitt's thought, as well as a consideration of its relevance for contemporary legal thought and debates.

Organised Sexual Abuse

Organised Sexual Abuse

Michael Salter

Routledge
2012
sidottu
Organised Sexual Abuse offers a comprehensive, interdisciplinary investigation of this phenomenon. Since the early 1980s, social workers and mental health professionals around the globe have encountered clients reporting sexual abuse by organized groups or networks. These allegations have been amongst the most controversial in debates over child sexual abuse, raising many unanswered questions. Are reports of organized abuse factual or the product of moral panic and false memories? If these reports are true, what is the appropriate response? The fields of child protection and psychotherapy have been polarised over the issue. And, although cases of organized abuse continue to be uncovered, a reasoned and evidence-based analysis of the subject is long overdue. Examining the existing evidence, and supplementing it with further qualitative research, in this book Michael Salter addresses: the relationship between sexual abuse and organized abuse; questions over the veracity of testimony; the gap between the policing response to sexual abuse and the realities of child sexual exploitation; the contexts in which sexually abusive groups develop and operate; the role of religion and ritual in subcultures of multi-perpetrator sexual abuse; as well as the experience of adults and children with histories of organized abuse in the criminal justice system and health system. Organized Sexual Abuse thus provides a definitive analysis that will be of immense value to those with professional and academic interests in this area.

Cash Ratliff has loved three different women for three different reasons. Cash's alcohol habit didn't mix well with Julie. Scarred by a fragmented childhood, a reckless youth spent in and out of trouble, and a tour in the Marine Corps, Cash has become a man shaped more by shadows than by light. Now confined within the walls of Angola State Prison-a place whispered about even among the hardened-Cash wears the label of felon like a second skin and his past is sealed behind bars and secrets. Against expectation, the court grants him a sliver of freedom: while still incarcerated but within a work release center, he is granted outside employment with Sophia Blessing, a reclusive widow whose quiet life belies a discerning spirit. Something about the old woman both unsettles and steadies Cash at the same time. She peers beyond his rough edges, offering not pity but a kind of truth he's never encountered-a truth wrapped not in judgment, but in something eerily close to grace. Everything shifts with the arrival of Abigail-Sophia's granddaughter, luminous and out of reach, betrothed to a man whose charm masks something far darker. As tragedy coils through their lives like smoke, Cash is thrust into unfamiliar depths. A question begins to haunt him: when fate offers a final fork in the road, can a man outrun the pull of his own past? Or is redemption always a step too far?

Crime, Justice and Social Media

Michael Salter

Routledge
2016
sidottu
How is social media changing contemporary understandings of crime and injustice, and what contribution can it make to justice-seeking? Abuse on social media often involves betrayals of trust and invasions of privacy that range from the public circulation of intimate photographs to mass campaigns of public abuse and harassment using platforms such as Facebook, Twitter, 8chan and Reddit – forms of abuse that disproportionately target women and children.Crime, Justice and Social Media argues that online abuse is not discontinuous with established patterns of inequality but rather intersects with and amplifies them. Embedded within social media platforms are inducements to abuse and harass other users who are rarely provided with the tools to protect themselves or interrupt the abuse of others. There is a relationship between the values that shape the technological design and administration of social media, and those that inform the use of abuse and harassment to exclude and marginalise diverse participants in public life. Drawing on original qualitative research, this book is essential reading for students and scholars in the fields of cyber-crime, media and crime, cultural criminology, and gender and crime.

Towards A Schmittian Theory of Regionalism within International Law and Relations

Towards A Schmittian Theory of Regionalism within International Law and Relations

Michael Salter; Yinan Yin

Routledge
2022
sidottu
This book develops a critical analysis of how the USA has deployed various imperialistic devices within international law in order to expand its zone of influence on a global scale. The work then sets out a suggested theoretical framework highlighting an alternative regionalist model of international law and relations founded on Carl Schmitt’s controversial Grossraum theory". The authors use the comparatively new regional structure of the SCO as an extended case study and reference point for testing the credibility and limits of the theory. The authors address the question of the future potential and prospects for a suitably revised Grossraum approach to the study of international law and relations that has had to be substantially modified to better accommodate the realities of how the SCO is currently evolving and is structured. This text sets out, for the first time in an English language work, a comprehensive account of Schmittian Grossraum theory based on a wide range of published sources in both English and German. The analysis breaks new ground in that no other work has attempted this critical task within the field of international law and relations. This interdisciplinary book is aimed at students and academic researchers of regional studies, international law and relations, jurisprudence, international politics, political theorists and policy think tank bodies.

Nazi War Crimes, US Intelligence and Selective Prosecution at Nuremberg

Nazi War Crimes, US Intelligence and Selective Prosecution at Nuremberg

Michael Salter

Routledge Cavendish
2007
nidottu
Reviewing recently declassified CIA documents, this book provides a balanced but critical discussion of the contribution of American intelligence officials to the Nuremberg war crimes trials.Giving new details of how senior Nazi war criminals, such as SS General Karl Wolff, were provided with effective immunity deals, partly as a reward for their wartime cooperation with US intelligence officials, including Allen Dulles, former CIA Director, the author also discusses the role of such officials in mobilizing the unique resources of a modern intelligence agency to provide important trial testimony and vital documentary evidence.Nazi War Crimes, US Intelligence and Selective Prosecution at Nuremberg argues that both war crimes prosecutors and intelligence officials can engage in mutually beneficial collaborations, but that both sides need to recognize and appreciate the problems that may arise from the fact that these institutions are required to operate according to different, and in some cases contradictory, agendas.This topical book gives those studying, or with interests in, international law, criminal law and history an insight into the debates surrounding international war crimes, within the context of the Nuremberg war crimes trials.

The Lived Experience of Hate Crime

The Lived Experience of Hate Crime

Michael Salter; Kim McGuire

Springer Nature Switzerland AG
2019
sidottu
This book approaches the topic of the subjective, lived experience of hate crime from the perspective of Husserlian phenomenology. It provides an experientially well-grounded account of how and what is experienced as a hate crime, and what this reveals about ourselves as the continually reconstituted “subject” of such experiences. The book shows how qualitative social science methods can be better grounded in philosophically informed theory and methodological practices to add greater depth and explanatory power to experiential approaches to social sciences topics. The Authors also highlight several gaps and contradictions within Husserlian analyses of prejudice, which are exposed by attempts to concretely apply this approach to the field of hate crimes.Coverage includes the difficulties in providing an empathetic understanding of expressions of harmful formsof prejudice underlying hate crimes, including hate speech, arising from our own and others’ ‘life worlds’. The Authors describe a ‘Husserlian-based’ view of hate crime as well as a novel interpretation of the value of the comprehensive methodological stages pioneered by Husserl. The intended readership includes those concerned with discrimination and hate crime, as well as those involved in qualitative research into social topics in general. The broader content level makes this work suitable for undergraduate and postgraduate students, even professionals within law enforcement.

Ο Αρχιεπιθεωρητής Βέρνερ Λόρεντζ, έχει εξιχνιάσει κάθε λογής σοβαρά εγκλήματα κατά τη διάρκεια της καριέρας του στην Γερμανική Ομοσπονδιακή Εγκληματολογική Υπηρεσία, μέχρι τη στιγμή της ανακάλυψης των τριών πτωμάτων...Πάνω στο κάθε ένα μια φωτογραφία στιγμής που απεικονίζει το θύμα λίγο μετά το θάνατό του.
