Book SynopsisThis book focuses on the controversial aggressive police practices employed to control crime by the New York City Police Department (NYPD) and the harm that has resulted and may further be produced if not checked. Informed by the authorâs personal experience with the department as a retired NYPD Captain, as well as by his research in the field, this book explains and reviews the broad influence of stop and frisk as well as other aggressive policies.Many policies agencies across the United States â and even throughout the world â take heed of NYPD tactics due to the organization's status as a flagship police department. In the mid-1990s, with the election of Mayor Rudolph Giuliani, a new era of aggressive policing began. While apparently helping lead to a decline in crime, the side effects of tactics such as stop and frisk also led to powerful repercussions. A new Inspector General was installed, the department was placed under review by a federal monitor examining its racist and unconstitutional stops, and officers were compelled by City Council to record nearly every interaction with citizens. Names of individuals affected by these aggressive tactics, including Amadou Diallo, Eric Garner, and Abner Louima, among others, remain in the public consciousness. These tactics adopted by the NYPD, at least in part, fueled social justice movements such as Black Lives Matter. The many years of stop and frisk erodes public trust in the police with many activists and policymakers calling for increased scrutiny of police power, reduced police budgets, and even for the abolishment of police.Designed both for students in criminal justice programs as well as recruits in police training, this book explains and critiques the state of stop and frisk and related tactics and recommends paths to a better future.

Book SynopsisThis book provides a clear and concise introduction to the work of French cultural icon Jacques Lacan (1901-1981) for criminologists, sociologists, and social theorists. The authors approach Lacan as a structuralist rather than a psychoanalyst or psychiatrist, exploring his perspective on the relationships among being, agency, meaning, and structure; his construction of subjectivity; and his register theory, constituted by the Real, the Imaginary, and the Symbolic.The book begins with an analysis and evaluation of the only substantive criminological deployment of Lacanâs philosophy to date, in the ultra-realist framework developed by Steve Hall, Simon Winlow, and Thomas Raymen. The strengths of this framework suggest that Lacanâs work has even more relevance to crime and harm in the digital age than it did in the 20th century. Lacan for Criminologists picks up where ultra-realism leaves off, engaging directly with Lacanâs Ãcrits and seminars to demonstrate their value to a critical criminology that is theory-led, evidence-based, and zemiologically-focused.This book will be fascinating reading for cultural, critical, and ultra-realist criminologists, as well as students and scholars of sociology, cultural studies, and social theory.

Book SynopsisInstead of treating mathematics as a collection of separate topics or isolated courses, this book highlights the patterns and relationships that appear throughout mathematics. Rather than keeping studies confined to a single field, the puzzles here look beyond boundaries and discover links among different areas of knowledge. Within the domain of mathematics, this book focuses on the fun of finding such connections through puzzles.Math Affinity Puzzles uses analogies to explore connections between mathematical terms and concepts, where solving a puzzle requires unraveling the relationships between the mathematical ideas. Solving this kind of mathematical puzzle is thus not about assessing understanding but deepening it, making the connections, and having fun doing it.Because there may be multiple relationships present, one answer is not claimed to be correct. Instead, which answer is best comes from one point of view. The short descriptions follow, touching on the different choices while going more deeply into historical or other aspects of the relationships.The puzzles will deepen the readerâs understanding and appreciation of, as well as foster discussion about, the relationships among mathematical ideas.The puzzles in this book can be enjoyed on their own or as supplements in a course setting. The authors have used them in calculus and upper-level classes as homework assignments and for in-class discussions. Students have been asked to justify the one they have chosen, offering opportunities for noncomputational critical thinking, speaking, and writing about mathematics.

Book SynopsisThis book provides a comprehensive introduction to the essential concepts of environmental conflict and peacebuilding by compiling and explaining key terms in an easy-to-navigate A-Z format.Over the past 80 years, scholarly interest in war and peace has flourished, resulting in the institutionalization of disciplines such as international relations, security studies, and peace and conflict studies. Since at least the 1970s, research has also investigated the planetary effects of global environmental change. Environmental peacebuilding emerged at the intersection of environment, conflict, and peace, weaving together several related threads that address both environmental risks of conflict and environmental opportunities for peace. The language used to describe, explain, predict, teach, negotiate, and form policy in the arena of environmental peacebuilding is often nuanced, evolving, and contested. This book fills a gap in the literature, by providing a more consistent understanding and approach to key aspects of environmental peacebuilding. The book begins with a thematic introduction to contextualize the topic, written by a team of world-leading scholars. The book then follows an A-Z format, with over 150 entries from experts in the field describing and explaining key concepts, and providing examples of how different terms are applied within this growing discipline.This comprehensive A-to-Z guide will be useful for students, academics, professionals, and policymakers seeking a wider understanding of environmental peacebuilding. The book will also be useful for those studying security studies, peace and conflict studies, environmental studies, and environmental law.

Book SynopsisThis book considers how continental great powers have attempted to develop and wield strong navies from 1801 onwards.Continental Powers and Naval Development argues that a continental great powerâs ability to build and effectively use a strong navy are greatly affected by two factors: a naval force design capable of executing national strategy (strategy coherence) and the deployment of that navy to places or for purposes that minimize the dominant naval powerâs threat perception (threat diffusion). Each factor is deceptively difficult for a continental great power to achieve but, through an analysis of four historical case studies, this book shows how both factors are vital not just for successful naval development, but for keeping the peace among great powers. Finally, it highlights how states commonly thought of as âœunnaturalâ naval powers can nonetheless achieve their political objectives at sea.This book will be of much interest to students of naval history, maritime strategy, and International Relations.
