Cybercrime and Digital Deviance

Cybercrime and Digital Deviance

Roderick S. Graham; 'Shawn K. Smith

CRC Press Inc
2019
nidottu
Cybercrime and Digital Deviance is a work that combines insights from sociology, criminology, and computer science to explore cybercrimes such as hacking and romance scams, along with forms of cyberdeviance such as pornography addiction, trolling, and flaming. Other issues are explored including cybercrime investigations, organized cybercrime, the use of algorithms in policing, cybervictimization, and the theories used to explain cybercrime.Graham and Smith make a conceptual distinction between a terrestrial, physical environment and a single digital environment produced through networked computers. Conceptualizing the online space as a distinct environment for social interaction links this text with assumptions made in the fields of urban sociology or rural criminology. Students in sociology and criminology will have a familiar entry point for understanding what may appear to be a technologically complex course of study. The authors organize all forms of cybercrime and cyberdeviance by applying a typology developed by David Wall: cybertrespass, cyberdeception, cyberviolence, and cyberpornography. This typology is simple enough for students just beginning their inquiry into cybercrime. Because it is based on legal categories of trespassing, fraud, violent crimes against persons, and moral transgressions it provides a solid foundation for deeper study.Taken together, Graham and Smith’s application of a digital environment and Wall’s cybercrime typology makes this an ideal upper level text for students in sociology and criminal justice. It is also an ideal introductory text for students within the emerging disciplines of cybercrime and cybersecurity.

Reconstructing Early Buddhism

Reconstructing Early Buddhism

Roderick S. Bucknell

Cambridge University Press
2022
sidottu
Buddhist origins and discussion of the Buddha's teachings are amongst the most controversial and contested areas in the field. This bold and authoritative book tackles head-on some of the key questions regarding early Buddhism and its primary canon of precepts. Noting that the earliest texts in Pali, Sanskrit and Chinese belong to different Buddhist schools, Roderick S. Bucknell addresses the development of these writings during the period of oral transmission between the Buddha's death and their initial redaction in the first century BCE. A meticulous comparative analysis reveals the likely original path of meditative practice applied and taught by Gautama. Fresh perspectives now emerge on both the Buddha himself and his Enlightenment. Drawing on his own years of meditative experience as a Buddhist monk, the author offers here remarkable new interpretations of advanced practices of meditation, as well as of Buddhism itself. It is a landmark work in Buddhist Studies.

The Imperial Japanese Army Volume 1

The Imperial Japanese Army Volume 1

Roderick S Grigor

Paper Blossom Books
2020
pokkari
The army that carved out Japan's land empire during World War 2 is examined in two volumes. Drawn from period and modern Japanese and American sources the Imperial Army's corps are arranged as they were deployed in the field, each with its history and order of battle. A chapter covering the divisions and brigades deployed under them follows. Next, an index of individual units arranged in sequence by code number makes searching the book easy. Over 6,000 units are identified and represented in the two volumes. Today the Japanese Army remains mysterious, in part because it was secretive by nature. These books are wide ranging and informative, but of special interest is the ability to draw back the curtain on one of the Imperial Japanese Army's most coveted secrets, the intelligence code name and number camouflage it called Tsushogo. The Imperial Japanese Army Volume 1, Japan, the Annexed Territories and Manchuria covers the army in Japan and adjacent territories. Okinawa and civil unrest aside, these places remained largely unscathed until late 1944, serving the Empire as bases for most of the major and minor Japanese Army units that shipped to the Pacific, South Asia and Indian Ocean regions. Japan's end of war armies are present in fine historic detail, each with its history and order of battle. These are the armies the United States estimated it would lose 1 million American lives to in an invasion, and why it opted to drop the atomic bomb. Details and histories of the Imperial armies in Taiwan, Korea and Manchuria are included in the book. The crushing Soviet invasion of Manchuria in early August 1945 can be found in the events of each of the armies they overran. Based on original sources, this is an illuminating must have reference for anyone interested in the history of World War 2 in the Asia-Pacific region.

Children's Literature and the Fin de Siècle

Children's Literature and the Fin de Siècle

Roderick McGillis

Praeger Publishers Inc
2003

The close of a century invites both retrospection and prognostication. As a period of transition, it also brings a sense of uncertainty, finality, and apocalypticism. These feelings stem from various events, such as political turmoil, scientific advancements, and social change. As might be expected, literature reflects such changes and the feelings they engender. But perhaps more surprisingly, children's literature is especially sensitive to such matters, and fiction for children often struggles with dark and unpleasant issues. This book examines fin de siècle tensions in 19th- and 20th-century children's literature from around the world.Each chapter is written by an expert contributor, and the volume ranges over a disparate variety of topics. These include poetry, series books, pacifist fiction, gender issues, religion and literature, eco-criticism, minority experiences, humor and the Holocaust, fantasy and science fiction, and computer culture. In exploring these issues in relation to children's literature, the contributors reveal the shifting nature of our values and the world in which we live. Global in nature, the chapters look at children's literature from such places as Germany, Holland, the United Kingdom, Australia, and the United States.
