Annotierter Kommentar StGB

  • Categories: Law

Ein breit aufgestelltes Autorenteam – Rechtsanwältinnen, Staatsanwälte, Richterinnen, Praktiker und Akademikerinnen – erläutert praxisnah und lösungsorientiert sämtliche Bestimmungen des Schweizerischen Strafgesetzbuchs. Der Kommentar bietet einen kompakten, aktuellen und präzisen Überblick über das StGB und erlaubt durch seine Systematik einen sicheren und einfachen Einstieg. Abgerundet werden die Kommentierungen punktuell durch praktische strafprozessuale Hinweise. Die Besonderheit des "annotierten" Kommentars besteht in der klaren inhaltlichen und grafischen Abgrenzung zwischen der Darstellung der aktuellsten Rechtsprechung (Stand per 30. Juni 2020) im Haupttext und weiterführenden Ausführungen der Autoren in den Annotationen. In den Annotationen finden sich Lösungsvorschläge für noch unbeantwortete Fragen sowie mögliche Argumente, die für oder gegen die geltende Praxis sprechen. Die Autoren beziehen Stellung zu wichtigen Themen und zeigen Alternativen zu unbefriedigenden Tendenzen in Lehre und Rechtsprechung auf.

Verbrechensbekämpfung jenseits der Schuldstrafe

  • Categories: Law

Die Autorin dieser Habilitationsschrift setzt sich vertieft mit den freiheitsentziehenden Massnahmen nach schweizerischem Strafgesetzbuch auseinander, stellt diese in einen historischen Kontext und führt die weit verzweigte Forschung erstmals umfassend in einer Monografie zusammen. Dabei legt sie einen besonderen Fokus auf den Problemkomplex der Kriminalprognose, wobei konkrete forensisch-psychiatrische Gutachten vor dem Hintergrund des Forschungsstandes kritisch analysiert werden. Weitere Schwerpunkte bilden die Zweispurigkeit des Sanktionenrechts, das Kriterium der schweren psychischen Störung, das unbestimmte Ende der Sanktion, grundlegende Beschuldigtenrechte und der Sachverständigenbeweis. Aufbauend auf diesen Erkenntnissen beantwortet die Autorin die grundsätzliche Frage der Legitimation der freiheitsentziehenden Massnahmen in einem grösseren rechtsphilosophischen Zusammenhang.

Total Confinement

"Ethnographically rich, thick with gritty details and original insights, Rhodes's revelatory book about US prisons--those who are incarcerated in them and those who run them--should be read by everyone who cares about social justice and the nature of power."—Emily Martin, author of Flexible Bodies "Thank you, Lorna Rhodes, for taking us to where the 'worst of the worst' are kept out of sight and out of mind in the new millennium. This powerful ethnography of the correctional high tech machine reveals how institutional power suffocates individual agency and redefines rationality and insanity. Good, bad and evil fall by the wayside."—Philippe Bourgois, author of In Search of Respect: Selling Crack in El Barrio "A truly remarkable book. The inside look at supermax confinement alone is worth the price of admission, and the prose sometimes verges on poetry. This is meticulous scholarship."—Hans Toch, author of Living in Prison

Bringing together international experts, this book is the go-to source for students, researchers, and practitioners in criminal justice, looking for a comprehensive and authoritative summary of available knowledge in the field.

  • Publisher: Routledge

The ’punitive turn’ has brought about new ways of thinking about geography and the state, and has highlighted spaces of incarceration as a new terrain for exploration by geographers. Carceral geography offers a geographical perspective on incarceration, and this volume accordingly tracks the ideas, practices and engagements that have shaped the development of this new and vibrant subdiscipline, and scopes out future research directions. By conveying a sense of the debates, directions, and threads within the field of carceral geography, it traces the inner workings of this dynamic field, its synergies with criminology and prison sociology, and its likely future trajectories. Synthesizing existing work in carceral geography, and exploring the future directions it might take, the book develops a notion of the ’carceral’ as spatial, emplaced, mobile, embodied and affective.

  • Publisher: Springer

The Palgrave Handbook of Prison Ethnography provides an expansive overview of the challenges presented by qualitative, and particularly ethnographic, enquiry. The chapters reflect upon the means by which ethnographers aim to gain understanding, make sense of what they learn and the way they represent their finished work. The Handbook offers urgent insights relevant to current trends in the growth of imprisonment worldwide. In an era of mass incarceration, human-centric ethnography provides an important counter to quantitative analysis and the audit culture on which prisons are frequently judged. The Handbook is divided into four parts. Part I ('About Prison Ethnography') assesses methodologi...

Liberation Theology and the Others

Looking beyond prominent figures or major ecclesial events, Liberation Theology and the Others offers a fresh historical perspective on Latin American liberation theology. Thirteen case studies, from Mexico to Uruguay, depict a vivid picture of religious and lay activism that shaped the profile of the Latin American Catholic Church in the second half of the 20th century. Stressing the transnational character of Catholic activism and its intersections with prevalent discourses of citizenship, ethnicity or development, scholars from Latin America, the US, and Europe, analyze how pastoral renewal was debated and embraced in multiple local and culturally diverse contexts. Contributors explore th...
