Sinopse

In "Non-Criminal Prisons," Arthur Griffiths presents a thought-provoking examination of the penal system, challenging conventional perceptions of justice and rehabilitation. Griffiths employs a richly descriptive literary style that combines narrative insight with scholarly analysis, engaging readers through vivid illustrations of prison life. Set against the backdrop of late 19th-century England, the book provides an intricate portrait of reformative justice, arguing for the humane treatment of inmates and the potential for personal transformation within prison walls. By situating his work within contemporary debates on punishment and rehabilitation, Griffiths contributes a critical voice to the dialogue around penal reform. Arthur Griffiths, an influential figure in the field of criminology and prison reform, draws upon his extensive experience in the justice system to shape his arguments in this pivotal work. His background as a journalist and a prison governor gave him unique insights into the lives of inmates and the conditions of incarceration. Throughout his career, Griffiths championed the notion that prisons should serve as rehabilitative environments rather than mere punitive spaces, an ideology that is palpably echoed in "Non-Criminal Prisons." This compelling book is highly recommended for readers interested in criminology, social justice, and prison reform. Griffiths' articulate prose and profound understanding of the complexities surrounding incarceration make this a must-read for scholars, policymakers, and anyone eager to engage with the ongoing discourse on the merits and pitfalls of the penal system.

    Conversations about abortion often center on the question: Are you pro-life or pro-choice? But what if that's the wrong question? 
    Drawing upon the life and teachings of Jesus, Becoming ProGrace invites Christians to ask new questions, such as:What if conversations about abortion didn't have to feel so tense, divided, or dehumanizing?What does it mean to affirm the image of God in every person involved?How do we navigate tension we may feel when our deepest Christian values seem to conflict?What would it take for Christian communities to become spaces of empathy, listening, and grace? 
    Including insights and personal stories from Christians of diverse denominational backgrounds and political perspectives, Becoming ProGrace articulates a uniquely Christian response to abortion that calls us to take on the character of Christ rather than trying to change others, offering a much-needed message of hope for our divided world.

    This is a special combo, including multiple titles, which are about the following subjects: 
    1 - Oliver Cromwell: The reason why people thought he was so evil, is because of his brutality against the Irish at that time. Several Irish and English scholars agree that Cromwell was too cruel in Ireland. Other academics blame him of 'ethnic cleansing,' or the systematic expulsion of a certain ethnic population from a territory. It typically entails the execution and deportation of Catholics, and that he is despised by Irish Catholics. 
    2 - Enver Pasha: It doesn’t seem like Enver Pasha was a good man. His war crimes have caused the deaths of millions of innocent citizens. Sure, during a war and a collapsing empire, you try to do what you can to stop losing, but I doubt anyone in the right mind can justify his actions, which included the slaughter of minorities in the Ottoman Empire during World War 1, and even the Armenian Genocide, which consisted of releasing prisoners upon the Armenian population to have their way and abuse, murder, rape, and pillage. Deportation of Armenians to remote areas, away from their homes, caused many to starve, drown, or become severely ill. And to this day, the Turkish government is still somewhat reluctant to acknowledge the severity of that historical atrocity. 
    3 - Benito Mussolini: Ironically, when we think of fascism, we often look at someone as brutal and influential as Adolf Hitler, but the word “fascism” originated from Italian. The ideology that was carried out in the vicious Spanish War right before World War 2, and was embraced by Nazi Germany, was actually pushed and more or less invented by the Italians during a critical time in history when many changes were made, and when fear and uncertainty were all in the air. Mussolini was efficient and influential. He was a fearless leader not to be trifled with. Let’s take a look at what he did and why.

    During World War II, Michigan became a temporary home to six thousand German and Italian POWs. 
    At a time of homefront labor shortages, they picked fruit in Berrien County, harvested sugar beets in the Thumb, cut pulpwood in the Upper Peninsula, and maintained parks and other public spaces in Detroit. The work programs were not flawless and not all of the prisoners were cooperative, but many of the men established enduring friendships with their captors. Author Gregory Sumner tells the story of these detainees and the ordinary Americans who embodied our highest ideals, even amid a global war.

    In the Cause of Liberty

    This decidedly unusual book gives an excellent account of what its title purports. Rendering fresh views, not only of the poet and engraver William Blake and the radical-democratic pamphleteer Thomas Paine, but of the entirety of that cavalcade of events encompassed under the rubric of Revolution in the 18th Century—in America, in France, and in the Caribbean island known today as Haiti, as well as of the reform and radical movements contemporaneous in Britain with the rise of empire and “industrialism”. Proceedings that have had an influence on the debates on liberty and equality, and sovereign authority, in the ensuing two centuries; that remain, despite ever-burgeoning scholarship, controversial and perplexing, even elusive, today. 
    William S. King’s vividly written and excellently researched narrative also doubles as a noteworthy literary examination, including Mary Wollstonecraft and Edmund Burke, Thomas Paine and William Blake, Marat and Condorcet, and the booksellers Nicolas Bonneville and Joseph Johnson, and many, many others—all mounted in memorable and sometimes gory tableaux, sketched against the turbulence of the time. 
    This book will interest a diverse set of readers; all who are concerned with the ideas propounded at the end of the 18th century, by these persons and stirred by these events.
