Water, Governance, and Crime Issues
This book provides an overview of crimes involving water, including pollution, illegal dumping, and supply chain disruption from a criminological perspective. It examines a multifaceted issue from a comparative policy perspective supplemented with individual case studies to provide insights on the magnitude of the problem as well as possible solutions and policy recommendations. As growing populations and economic sectors continue to put unprecedented pressures on water supplies, the book aims to contribute to a better understanding of the problem in order to ensure the sustainability, long-term viability, and equitable use of this essential resource. The first part of the volume examines cr...
Convivial Urban Spaces
Despite developments in urban design during the last few decades, architects, urban planners and designers often continue to produce areas of bland, commercially led urban fabric that deliver the basic functional requirements of shelter, work and leisure but are socially unsustainable and likely generators of future problems. Convivial Urban Spaces demonstrates that successful urban public spaces are an essential part of a sustainable built environment. Without them we are likely to drift into an increasingly private and polarized society, with all the problems that would imply. Taking a multidisciplinary approach, this book draws on research, and the literature and theory of environmental psychology and urban design, to advance our understanding of what makes effective public spaces. Practical guidance is illustrated with case studies from the UK, Spain, Germany and Italy. The result is a practical and clearly presented guide to urban public space for planners, architects and students of the urban environment.
Criminological Connections, Directions, Horizons
This timely book presents a carefully curated selection of essays to celebrate the career of Nigel South, Emeritus Professor at the Department of Sociology and Criminology of the University of Essex, and one of the leading figures in his field. Through his long career, still ongoing and flourishing, Nigel has contributed knowledge in many areas of criminological scholarship and challenged the confines of the discipline, opening up new directions for thinking and debate. In this volume, Nigel’s close colleagues and friends celebrate his exceptional career through essays that draw on, or have been inspired by, his earlier or most recent work. Spanning across the areas of policing, drugs, green, southern, and sensory criminology, these essays offer cutting-edge research and fresh conceptual insights honouring the work of an outstanding criminologist, colleague, friend, and human being. This volume will be of pivotal interest to students, scholars, and academics in the fields of sociology and criminology, as well as those with an interest in these areas more generally.

Corruzione, fino a quando...?
La corruzione non è solo un volgare passaggio di denaro di mano in mano e neanche solo la violazione delle regole ma è piuttosto lo strutturarsi di un certo tipo di influenza all`interno di una dinamica di influenze, con la straordinaria crescita dell`"industria della lobby" e l`asservimento di amministrazione e politica al denaro. Non si tratta di un problema che riguarda solo i giudici e il diritto ma anche la politica, la Pubblica Amministrazione, le imprese e, naturalmente, la scuola e le agenzie formative riguarda tutti noi e la società in cui viviamo. Per questo è urgente restituire a ogni cosa il suo nome e togliersi dalla testa l`idea che la prassi possa sostituirsi all`etica: una responsabilità che è di tutti! Questa raccolta di saggi suggerisce una chiave di lettura in linea con i principi fondamentali di qualunque ordinamento moderno, ovvero l`idea che, anche per le patologie dei corpi sociali, prevenire sia meglio che curare, essendo la sanzione penale, come l`intervento del chirurgo, un`extrema ratio.
