International Dialogue

ÿA safe place is one where a range of interrelated elements are in place. These relate to family, neighbourhood, community, school, health, services, infrastructure, facilities, etc. While it is recognised that all play a role in safety, it is difficult to place a value on any one element, or on the impact of the state of that element on other elements or on safety as a whole ... This conference aims to promote a dialogue across themes within the crime prevention and safety sector, with the intention of debating commonly held values and assumptions.

International Perspectives of Crime Prevention 3

The German Congress on Crime Prevention (GCOCP) is an annual event that takes place since 1995 in different German cities and targets all areas of crime prevention. Since its foundation the GCOCP has been open to an international audience with a growing number of non-German speaking participants joining. To give the international guests their own discussion forum, the Annual International Forum (AIF) within the GCOCP was established in 2007. For non-German guests this event offers lectures in English language as well as other activities within the GCOCP that are translated simultaneously. This book reflects the input and output of the 3rd Annual International Forum 2009 which took place 8th and 9th of June 2009 in Hanover (state of Lower Saxony). This book contains lectures of the GCOCP and AIF as well as a contribution from a partner organisation of the congress. The articles reflect worldwide views on crime prevention and criminal policy as well as the current status, discussion, research and projects in crime prevention from different countries, Europe and the world. Also the Hanover Declaration is included, a report about the key findings of the congress.

Since the early 2010s, an increasing number of European countries have passed laws that prohibit the wearing of various kinds of Islamic veil in particular circumstances. This insightful book considers the arguments used to justify such laws and analyses the legitimacy of these arguments both generally and in regards to whether such laws can be seen as justified interferences with the rights of women who wish to wear such garments.

The Routledge International Handbook to Veils and Veiling

Veils and veiling are controversial topics in social and political life, generating debates across the world. The veil is enmeshed within a complex web of relations encompassing politics, religion and gender, and conflicts over the nature of power, legitimacy, belief, freedom, agency and emancipation. In recent years, the veil has become both a potent and unsettling symbol and a rallying-point for discourse and rhetoric concerning women, Islam and the nature of politics. Early studies in gender, doctrine and politics of veiling appeared in the 1970s following the Islamic revival and ’re-veiling’ trends that were dramatically expressed by 1979’s Iranian Islamic revolution. In the 1990s,...

Wege der Sicherheitsgesellschaft

Das Gefühl allgegenwärtiger Bedrohung durch Gewalt und Kriminalität ist mittlerweile in das Alltagsleben eingesickert und durchdringt die Organisation sozialer Beziehungen und das Verhalten der Gesellschaftsmitglieder auch jenseits unmittelbarer Gefährdungslagen und Risikosituationen. Parallel dazu erleben wir seit einiger Zeit die Entwicklung einer Kontrollkultur, in der sowohl die staatliche Kontrolle von Kriminalität als auch die Mechanismen sozialer Kontrolle im Alltag neue Formen annehmen; die Vorstellungen sozialer Ordnung wandeln sich ebenso wie auch die Mechanismen ihrer Herstellung. Mit dem Etkett "Sicherheitsgesellschaft" werden diese Entwicklungen als grundlegende gesellschaf...

In diesem Sammelband werden die Schwerpunktthemen Sozialer Raum und Alter(n) anhand ausgewählter theoretischer Grundlagen und aktueller Forschungsprojekte – unter den Kategorien Zugänge, Verläufe und Übergänge – dargestellt und kritisch diskutiert.
