Southern Criminology

Southern Criminology

Kerry Carrington; Russell Hogg; John Scott; Máximo Sozzo; Reece Walters

Routledge
2018
sidottu
Criminology has focused mainly on problems of crime and violence in the large population centres of the Global North to the exclusion of the global countryside, peripheries and antipodes. Southern criminology is an innovative new approach that seeks to correct this bias.This book turns the origin stories of criminology, which simply assumed a global universality, on their head. It draws on a range of case studies to illustrate this point: tracing criminology’s long fascination with dangerous masculinities back to Lombroso’s theory of atavism, itself based on an orientalist interpretation of men of colour from the Global South; uncovering criminology’s colonial legacy, perhaps best exemplified by the over-representation of Indigenous peoples in settler societies drawn into the criminal justice system; analysing the ways in which the sociology of punishment literature has also been based on Northern theories, which assume that forms of penalty roll out from the Global North to the rest of the world; and making the case that the harmful effects of eco-crimes and global warming are impacting more significantly on the Global South. The book also explores how the coloniality of gender shapes patterns of violence in the Global South.Southern criminology is not a new sub-discipline within criminology, but rather a journey toward cognitive justice. It promotes a perspective that aims to invent methods and concepts that bridge global divides and enhance the democratisation of knowledge, more befitting of global criminology in the twenty-first century.

The Life of Sir Walter Scott by John Macrone

The Life of Sir Walter Scott by John Macrone

Edinburgh University Press
2013
sidottu
This is an annotated critical edition of a newly discovered life of Scott by one of his contemporaries. John Macrone, who wrote this life of Scott in 1832-1833, was admirably suited to the task; for, while he had never met Scott, his friends and associates included Cunningham, Galt, and Hogg, who wrote his Anecdotes of Scott for publication in Macrone's book. A quarrel with Lockhart, however, put a stop to the project, and nothing more was heard of it until the recent discovery of an autograph manuscript, here edited and published for the first time. A well-written and carefully-researched narrative, it increases our knowledge of Scott's life and work as perceived by his contemporaries, as well as enabling us to read Hogg's Anecdotes in their original context. The editor's introduction draws extensively on uncollected and unpublished material to illuminate Macrone's career, in the course of which he became the friend and publisher of Dickens, Thackeray, and Moore. It is the first publication of a manuscript which was believed to be lost. It provides a hitherto unknown contemporary perspective on Sir Walter Scott's life and work. It includes an introduction by the editor and a specially commissioned essay by Gillian Hughes giving a detailed account of Macrone's career based largely on uncollected or unpublished material. It establishes a new context for James Hogg's Anecdotes of Scott.

Twitch and Shout, Hallelujah, Amen

Twitch and Shout, Hallelujah, Amen

Gregory John Nashif; Scott Waters

Resource Publications (CA)
2019
sidottu
Living with Tourette syndrome is not an easy adventure. Growing up in an age of ignorance for this disease caused turmoil, anguish, and hardship, to say the least. Through poetry, the author tried to capture the emotion and passion connected with this disorder, to help bring about an understanding of what Tourette syndrome is about, and that the path to freedom goes through the cross of Jesus Christ. May those who read be surely blessed. ""Gregory's book is a creative way to share his journey of living with Tourette's. His insight and ability to be vulnerable with his life's experiences will help many people who deal with challenges of their own."" --Brad Cohen, President, Brad Cohen Tourette Foundation ""This beautiful collection of redemptive poems comes from a life of struggles and trials. Although Gregory shares painful and sometimes humorous reflections of living with Tourette syndrome, we are left with the powerful reminder of the freedom that comes with forgiveness and hope and peace found in trusting God."" --Jason Thompson, Executive Director, Portland Fellowship ""Twitch and Shout, Hallelujah, Amen is a wonderful and compelling story of a man growing up with Tourette syndrome in a world where it wasn't named. And with family and God's support, Greg was able to use his writings to tug his reader's hearts while sending them off on a beautiful journey of acceptance, forgiveness, and love. I look forward to his next adventures."" --Heather Noland, Co-Founder, Your Story Discovered ""This is such a fantastic book of poetry, a must read for everyone, it will move you I am not a person who reads poetry, just blueprints, and this book has made me want to read more, a truly gifted writer."" --Matthew C. Boozer, president & CEO, Alpine Quality Homes Gregory John Nashif was not diagnosed with Tourette syndrome until he was twenty-nine, when his mom sent him an article she read in a magazine. He is now sixty-seven. His journey with Tourette syndrome has been long and sometimes bitter, but he had a friend who made the difference. His name is Jesus Christ--through him, the author learned to forgive, laugh, and experience joy. Nashif does not have a degree. He is not a psychologist. He is merely a person writing from his own experience.
