Sinopsis

School Discipline offers a comprehensive exploration of how disciplinary policies in American schools have evolved, and how these policies impact student behavior and the overall educational environment. Examining the shift from punitive approaches, like zero tolerance, towards restorative justice and positive behavioral interventions, the book highlights the social and political influences shaping these changes, including legal precedents and evolving understandings of adolescent development. It reveals how traditional disciplinary measures can disproportionately affect marginalized students, potentially leading to cycles of disengagement. 

 
The book argues that effective disciplinary policies should be evidence-based, equitable, and supportive. Grounded in diverse data sources, including large-scale studies, interviews, and legal analyses, it connects school discipline to broader fields like sociology and criminology. 

 
School Discipline begins by defining key terms and tracing the historical roots of current practices, then analyzes the impact of specific policies on school climate and academic achievement. Ultimately, it provides practical strategies for educators, administrators, and policymakers seeking to create more inclusive learning environments, addressing ongoing debates about the use of suspensions and the role of law enforcement in schools.

Transforming Race Conversations...

Eugene Ellis

A guide to supporting our emergence from the tight grip of race discomfort. 
 
 
 
If we are to address the injustice of racism, we need to have the "race conversation." All too often, however, attempts at this conversation are met with silence, denial, anger, or hate. This is largely because the construct of race resides not only in our minds, but principally in the body. In order to have productive conversations about race and racism, a paradigm shift is needed—one which will empower us to remain present and embodied, rather than constricted with fear, regardless of our racial identities. 
 
 
 
Here, psychotherapist Eugene Ellis explores what is needed for this bodily shift to occur as he unpacks the visceral experience of the race conversation. He offers a trauma-informed, neurophysiological approach that emphasizes resourcing, body awareness, mindfulness, and healing. Transforming Race Conversations is essential for therapy practitioners as well as anyone looking to engage more effectively in the ongoing dialogue around race.

War Crimes - Accountability and...

Marcus Klein

War crimes represent some of the most heinous acts of violence committed during conflict, violating the basic principles of humanity and decency. These crimes, which range from genocide to the targeting of civilians, are not only devastating to the victims but also to the social fabric of entire societies. Over the centuries, the world has witnessed numerous atrocities during wartime, but the formal recognition and prosecution of these crimes have evolved significantly, especially in the last century.
The need for accountability in the face of war crimes is critical. It is not only about bringing perpetrators to justice but also about establishing a global standard that deters such crimes in the future. The introduction of international laws and institutions aimed at prosecuting war crimes marks a pivotal shift in the international community's approach to warfare. The atrocities committed during World War II, particularly the Holocaust and other acts of genocide, were a wake-up call for the global community. This led to the creation of the Nuremberg Trials, the first real attempt to hold individuals accountable for war crimes, and set the foundation for modern international law.
The purpose of this book is to explore the concept of war crimes, the historical development of international law designed to address such crimes, and the ongoing challenges of prosecuting these atrocities. We will examine the evolution of legal frameworks, such as the Geneva Conventions and the establishment of the International Criminal Court, and discuss how these institutions work to hold individuals and states accountable for their actions during wartime.

Sisterhood in Sports - How...

Joan Steidinger

Sisterhood in Sports: How Female Athletes Collaborate and Compete tells the stories of all kinds of female athletes in a variety of sports. Their natural tendency to use talking as a primary form of communication is essential to their experiences and successes in sports. Women and girls tend to have BFFs, collaborate during periods of stress, express empathy for one another, worry about themselves and others, and desire to have fun in sports, which makes their experiences of sports and competition different from their male counterparts. Female strengths are grounded in both mind and body, and they take these strengths onto the court, field, and track.   There are now dozens of studies showing how the female brain and hormones operate quite differently than those of men. This book reveals the ways in which these differences confirm that intense emotions about relationships are part of the sporting life for female competitors. Joan Steidinger uses real stories to show that women and girls compete at very high
