Abstract

This timely second edition remains essentially the same in overall organization and chapter layout and titles. New to the book is updated data and facts from empirical research and government and agency reports. Some information in some chapters was retained from the first edition if it was deemed still relevant and interesting. The definition of deviance has been modified to be more in line with standard understandings of the term which frequently describe deviance as violations of social norms. The word ""differences"" remains part of the definition and implies differences in attitudes, life

Abstract

Das Buch setzt sich exemplarisch und kritisch mit aktuellen (sozial-)pädagogischen Debatten über Grenzen, Grenzsetzung und Strafe in der Heimerziehung auseinander. Ihre wesentlichen Argumentations- und (De-)Legitimationsfiguren sowie ihre Engführungen und Blindstellen werden diskutiert. Im Rahmen einer empirischen Fallstudie werden dann zentrale Dimensionen, Parameter und organisationsspezifische Rahmenbedingungen der Grenzbearbeitung herausgearbeitet und in einen systematischen Zusammenhang mit den aktuellen Debatten gestellt. The book deals with current debates in Social Pedagogy on issues of setting limits, doing border and punishment in residential care. Their main arguments and (de-)legitimating figures as well as their narrowness of perspective and blind spots are discussed. As part of an empirical case study, key dimensions of doing border are then worked out and placed in a systematic relationship with the current debates.

Abstract

This innovative work tells the story of a unique partnership between a state prison administration and a team of incarcerated women, prison administrators, researchers, artists, and students known as The WoW Collective due to their joint efforts in developing a peer mentoring program called “Women’s Words/Women’s Worlds (WoW).” Using the example of WoW, the book provides a guide to doing community-based participatory research (CBPR) with women in prison that takes a collaborative—rather than the typically adversarial—approach to working together toward the goal of transformative social change. This book provides a ground-breaking example of how incarcerated women, prison administrators, researchers, and artists successfully worked together on a community-based project that led to meaningful results in the form of a peer mentoring program designed by women in prison for women in prison. Remaining closely attuned to the ethical dimensions of doing CBPR in a highly structured prison environment, this book provides inspiration to CBPR practitioners who seek to work within the criminal justice system to create real and meaningful change for the better. Co-authored by two criminologists, a senior prison administrator, and the unique collective known as WoW, this book provides both a clear step-by-step CBPR guide and a visionary approach to working with criminal justice practitioners.

Abstract

Frauen begehen kaum Gewaltverbrechen - Mord ist ein vorwiegend von Männern verübtes Delikt. Am spektakulären Einzelfall bilden sich normative Vorstellungen zu Macht, Gewalt, Sexualität und Geschlecht anhand der Konstruktion eines abnormalen Anderen ex negativo ab: Er führt vor, was die normale Frau, der normale Mann nicht sein kann. Melanie Grütter zeigt, dass die Definition von krimineller Abweichung in Wissensdiskursen ausgesprochen wirkmächtig in Bezug darauf ist, wie Geschlecht gedacht wird. Ihre historische Analyse stützt sich auf bisher kaum oder gar nicht erschlossene Primärquellen und eröffnet Einblicke auf die Permanenz und den Wandel von Geschlechterverhältnissen bis in die gegenwärtigen Diskurse. »Melanie Grütter gelingt es mit ihrer Studie, den Blick auf einen bisher wenig erforschten Aspekt der Kriminologie- und Kriminalitätsgeschichte zu öffnen. Damit legt sie - nicht zuletzt dank ihrer ausführlichen theoretischen Überlegungen - auch eine Basis für weitere Forschung zum Thema weiblicher Kriminalität und vor allem auch in Bezug darauf, wie Weiblichkeit innerhalb von Strafrechtssystemen verhandelt und definiert wird.« Eva Keller, Schweizerische Zeitschrift für Geschichte, 69/3 (2019) Besprochen in: WeiberDiwan, Sommer 2018 DHIVA, 3-6 (2018), Ulrich Brömmling

Abstract

How do historical sources narrate or recount deviance? Is there a relationship between the manner in which divergent behaviour is recounted and the type of source in which this behaviour is presented? The articles present examples of the recounting of deviance by using, amongst others, sources such as chronicles, travel accounts and court records from 15th century England, 15th/16th century Germany, 17th century Spain, 17th/18th century Venice and 17th/18th century Italy and France. It can be asserted that different types of narrative patterns to recount deviance occur intermingled in the cases discussed. »Die hier versammelten Beiträge bieten sehr unterschiedliche Fälle von vermeintlichem oder real abweichendem Verhalten auf der Grundlage chronikaler Belege, die von den einzelnen Autoren kritisch diskutiert werden.« Albrecht Classen, www.sehepunkte.de, 17/9 /(2017) Besprochen in: Erdélyi Múzeum, 1 (2017), Andrea Feher Comitatus, 48 (2017), Maia Farrar Speculum, 94/2 (2019), Thomas V.
