Gallaudet University Press,U.S. Deaf People in the Criminal Justice System:
Book SynopsisThe legal system is complex, and without appropriate access, many injustices can occur. Deaf people in the criminal justice system are routinely denied sign language interpreters, videophone access, and other accommodations at each stage of the legal process. The marginalization of deaf people in the criminal justice system is further exacerbated by the lack of advocates who are qualified to work with this population. Deaf People in the Criminal Justice System: Selected Topics on Advocacy, Incarceration, and Social Justice is the first book to illuminate the challenges faced by deaf people when they are arrested, incarcerated, or navigating the court system. This volume brings interdisciplinary contributors together to shed light on both the problems and solutions for deaf people in these circumstances. The contributors address issues such as accessibility needs; gaps regarding data collection and the need for more research; additional training for attorneys, court personnel, and prison staff; the need for more qualified sign language interpreters, including Certified Deaf Interpreters who provide services in court, prison, and juvenile facilities; substance use disorders; the school to prison nexus; and the need for advocacy. Students in training programs, researchers, attorneys, mental health professionals, sign language interpreters, family members, and advocates will be empowered by this much-needed resource to improve the experiences and outcomes for deaf people in the criminal justice system. This book has been made possible in part by the National Endowment for the Humanities: Exploring the human endeavor. Any views, findings, conclusions, or recommendations expressed in this book do not necessarily represent those of the National Endowment for the Humanities.Trade Review"This book appeals to various professionals in the Deaf community, and it could significantly enhance the work of students, educators, researchers, advocates, mental health practitioners, interpreters, and the like. Readers less familiar and integrated with the Deaf community stand to gain an incredible amount of information ranging from Deaf 101 myth-busting to deep examinations of Deaf persons’ stories of inaccessibility and injustice. For professionals working in any area of the criminal justice system, this is a must-read." -- Meghan L. Fox * JADARA *"By drawing in so many interdisciplinary views, this book serves as a kaleidoscope of often underrepresented/unheard perspectives based on the experiences and challenges experienced by signing deaf populations. As a result, it is currently the most comprehensive book out there when it comes to considering multiple experiences and challenges in achieving criminal justice reform from the perspectives of signing and deaf populations." -- Tawny Holmes Hlibok * Journal of Deaf Studies and Deaf Education *

Rutgers University Press Healthcare and Human Dignity: Law Matters
Book SynopsisThe individual and structural biases that affect the American healthcare system have serious emotional and physical consequences that all too often go unseen. These biases are often rooted in power, class, racial, gender or sexual orientation prejudices, and as a result, the injured parties usually lack the resources needed to protect themselves. In Healthcare and Human Dignity, individual worth, equality, and autonomy emerge as the dominant values at stake in encounters with doctors, nurses, hospitals, and drug companies. Although the public is aware of legal battles over autonomy and dignity in the context of death, the everyday patient’s need for dignity has received scant attention. Thus, in Healthcare, law professor Frank McClellan’s collection of cases and individual experiences bring these stories to life and establish beyond doubt that human dignity is of utmost priority in the everyday process of healthcare decision making.Trade Review"This is an excellent book. The stories are terrific, the analysis pitched just right, and the underlying themes of fair treatment, dignity, and inequality of treatment based on race are well-developed." -- Barry R. Furrow * Director, the Health Law Program, Thomas R. Kline School of Law, Drexel University *"Engaging, conversational, thought-provoking...McClellan's writing blends ethical arguments, a lay person's understandings of dignity, and legal frameworks very well. I felt as I was reading that someone was clearly and carefully walking me through stories about human dignity, medicine, and the law. His is a very humanistic legal gaze." -- Nora L. Jones * Director of Bioethics Education, Center for Bioethics, Urban Health and Policy, Temple University *"McClellan...maintains that violation of the trust between physician and patient may result from conscious or unconscious bias against a specific group of people. Such violations repeat themselves in part due to the short memory of the public. Within this context, McClellan also stresses that the rule of law is central to protecting human dignity when patients are seeking health care. The negative influence on human dignity of racism, limited access, high cost, and power relationships in health care is at the heart of McClellan's argument.

Rutgers University Press On Transits and Transitions: Trans Migrants and
Book SynopsisCelebrations of the “transgender tipping point” in the second decade of the twenty-first century occurred at the same time of heightened debates and anxieties about immigration in the United States. On Transits and Transitions explores what the increased visibility of trans people in the public sphere means for trans migrants and provides a counter-narrative to the dominant discourse that the inclusion of transgender issues in law and policy represents the progression of legal equality for trans communities. Focusing on the intersection of immigration and trans rights, Josephson presents a careful and innovative examination of the processes by which the category of transgender is produced through and incorporated into the key areas of asylum law, marriage and immigration law, and immigration detention policies. Using mobility as a critical lens, On Transits and Transitions captures the insecurity and precarity created by U.S. immigration control and related processes of racialization to show how im/mobility conditions citizenship and national belonging for trans migrants in the United States.Trade Review"The first in depth study of U.S. transgender immigration policy, On Transits and Transitions deftly illuminates the U.S immigration policy in which transgender became a recognized asylum seeker category. By brilliantly exploding the myth that more visibility and recognition for marginalized transgender people means expanded justice and equity, Josephson teaches us that citizenship and national belonging are not 'equal opportunity,' but are instead subject to inequitable racial, national, and gender hierarchies that persist even as we might assume they are improving."— Aren Z. Aizura, author of Mobile Subjects: Transnational Imaginaries of Gender Reassignment "Tristan Josephson critically examines how three very different policy regimes—asylum, immigration through marriage, and immigration detention—distill transgender migrants into the 'deserving' and everyone else.

Rutgers University Press Mad River, Marjorie Rowland, and the Quest for
Book SynopsisMad River, Marjorie Rowland, and the Quest for LGBTQ Teachers’ Rights addresses an important legal case that set the stage for today’s LGBTQ civil rights–a case that almost no one has heard of. Marjorie Rowland v. Mad River School District involves an Ohio guidance counselor fired in 1974 for being bisexual. Rowland’s case made it to the U.S. Supreme Court, but the justices declined to consider it. In a spectacular published dissent, Justice Brennan laid out arguments for why the First and Fourteenth Amendments apply to bisexuals, gays, and lesbians. That dissent has been the foundation for LGBTQ civil rights advances since. In the first in-depth treatment of this foundational legal case, authors Margaret A. Nash and Karen L. Graves tell the story of that case and of Marjorie Rowland, the pioneer who fought for employment rights for LGBTQ educators and who paid a heavy price for that fight. It brings the story of LGBTQ educators’ rights to the present, including commentary on Bostock v Clayton County, the 2020 Supreme Court case that struck down employment discrimination against LGBT workers. Trade Review"Margaret Nash and Karen Graves have produced the first full history of a true American heroine. Thanks to brave educators like Marjorie Rowland, LGBTQ teachers now enjoy vastly more freedoms than they did in earlier eras. But the fight is hardly over, as this brilliant little book reminds us. We have indeed come a long way, in the struggle for real human equality in our schools. And we also have much farther to go." -- Jonathan Zimmerman * author of The Amateur Hour: A History of College Teaching in America * "In this superb combination of narrative and analytical history, Nash and Graves engage us first with the dramatic, arduous story of Marjorie Rowland and her fight for equitable treatment. They then analyze how principles drawn from Rowland’s case have informed litigation surrounding LGBTQ educators over time, concluding with potent reflections on current prospects. Covering vast legal ground in accessible language, this book will stand as an important marker of the history of rights for LGBTQ school professionals." -- Linda Eisenmann * author of Higher Education for Women in Postwar America, 1945-1965 *"Margaret Nash and Karen Graves have produced the first full history of a true American heroine.

Springer Nature Switzerland AG Transitional Justice in Africa: The Case of Zimbabwe
This book provides insight on the effect of political violence and transitional justice in Africa focusing on Zimbabwe and comparing it to Rwanda, Uganda and Mozambique. The case of Zimbabwe is unique since political violence observed in some areas has manifested as contestations for power between members of various political parties. These political contestations have infiltrated family/clan structures at the community level and destroyed the human and social relations of people. Also, the author examines an understanding of how communities in the most polarized and conflict-ridden areas in Africa are addressing their past. The project would appeal to graduate students, academics, researchers and practitioners as it will help them to understand African justice systems and the complex network of relationships shaping justice processes during transitions.

United Nations Core indicators for sustainability and SDG impact
Book SynopsisMember States of the United Nations adopted the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development, containing 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and 169 targets. SDG 12 Sustainable Consumption and Production in its Target 12.6 explicitly encourages companies to adopt sustainable practices and to integrate sustainability information into their reporting cycles. Indicator 12.6.1 requires data on the number of companies publishing sustainability reports. Since 2015 UNCTAD has been working to enable further advancements on SDG sustainability reporting by companies. Specifically, focusing efforts to support governments in measuring the contribution of the private sector to the implementation of the SDGs. UNCTAD developed its Guidance on core indicators for entity reporting on contribution towards implementation of the Sustainable Development Goals (GCI). This Training Manual has been updated based on the changes included in the second edition of the Guidance on Core Indicators for Sustainability and SDG Impact Reporting. The core SDG indicators cover the economic, environmental, social and institutional areas. They were identified based on key reporting principles, main reporting frameworks and companies reporting practices
