Sinossi

Confession Validity Issues explores the troubling intersection of politics and true crime, focusing on how confessions are assessed within the criminal justice system. It examines the legal standards determining if a confession is admissible, highlighting the psychological factors that can undermine its validity. The book argues that current legal standards often fail to fully account for the pressures that induce false confessions, leading to wrongful convictions, and emphasizes the importance of understanding interrogation techniques, like minimization and maximization, that can elicit unreliable statements. The book uniquely blends legal analysis with insights from social science and forensic psychology, advocating for reforms such as mandatory video recording of interrogations and improved training for law enforcement. Landmark cases such as Miranda v. Arizona, while intended to protect civil liberties, are scrutinized for their actual effectiveness. Did you know that vulnerable individuals are particularly susceptible to coercive interrogation tactics or that erroneous confessions can imprison innocent people while freeing actual perpetrators? Beginning with an outline of the legal framework, including Fifth and Fourteenth Amendment rights, the book progresses through psychological tactics used during interrogations, presents case studies of wrongful convictions, and concludes with specific reform proposals. This approach aims to provide legal professionals, law enforcement, and anyone concerned with justice a comprehensive understanding of confession validity and its implications.

Marijuana Legalization - What...

Mark A.R. Kleiman, Beau Kilmer,...

Should we legalize marijuana? If we legalize, what in particular should be legal? Just possessing marijuana and growing your own? Selling and advertising? If selling becomes legal, who gets to sell? Corporations? Co-ops? The government? What regulations should apply? How high should taxes be? Different forms of legalization could bring very different results. 
 
 
 
This second edition of Marijuana Legalization: What Everyone Needs to Know® discusses what is happening with marijuana policy, describing both the risks and the benefits of using marijuana, without taking sides in the legalization debate. The book details the potential gains and losses from legalization, explores the "middle ground" options between prohibition and commercialized production, and considers the likely impacts of legal marijuana on occasional users, daily users, patients, parents, and employers—and even on drug traffickers.

Sahel: 10 Years of Instability -...

Giovanni Carbone, Camillo Casola

Ten years after the start of the Malian crisis, political and security instability in the Sahel have changed in scale and nature, and spilled over across national frontiers. The border region between Mali, Burkina Faso and Niger has become the new epicentre of insecurity.
The comeback of military actors on the political scene, and the support provided by large parts of the population to post-coup military juntas is evidence of poor governance and a severe deterioration in the legitimacy of elected authorities. In this complex scenario, the initiatives of external partners affect regional balances, making the Sahel a major theatre for power competition.
How did the crisis evolve over the past decade? What are the main drivers behind local, regional and international dynamics? What prospects for regional stability?

Womanish Theology - Discovering...

Khristi Lauren Adams

Khristi Lauren Adams's faith was first shaped by her experiences as a Black girl—learning about Scripture from her grandmother, Mama Hattie; "playing church" with her seven cousins over summer vacation; and grieving the murder of her sixteen-year-old friend when she was just fifteen. 
 
 
 
In Womanish Theology, Adams reflects on those experiences, inviting listeners to learn from a new perspective and guiding them to a deeper understanding of their own spirituality. 
 
 
 
This groundbreaking book introduces a new branch of theological thought Adams calls womanish, as a play on the womanist tradition (the theology of Black womanhood). "Womanish," remembers Adams, is a term Black mothers used for young girls as they grew more interested in doing grown-up things. Adams draws on her own life story as well as the life stories of other Black girls to explore theological concepts such as Scripture, theodicy, salvation, prayer, neighborly love, and the image of God. 
 
 
 
Through this journey, listeners will learn that theology is for everyone and that the whole community of God can learn from the spiritual insights of Black girls.
