Abstract:
In early 2010, amidst a series of racially charged incidents on campus, the student government president at the University of California at San Diego revoked funding to all student media organizations in response to controversial speech on the student-run television station. It is well established that once the government has opened a forum, including a "metaphysical" forum constituted by government funding for private speech, it may not discriminate based on the viewpoints expressed within that forum. However, it has not been clearly established whether the government may close such a forum f

Abstract:
Although illicit organ removal is not a new crime, globalisation and economic inequality, underpinned by shortages of organs, have amplified this problem to such an extent that governments are now urged to take comprehensive punitive measures. Some manifestations of illicit organ removal are already considered criminal offences under domestic transplant legislations and under the framework of human trafficking. At the same time, illicit organ removal has also been categorised as a form of organ trafficking by the Council of Europe Convention against Trafficking in Human Organs, which calls upo

Abstract:
Cognition enhancers—drugs used to enhance cognition in healthy people—have generated a substantial amount of debate in the academic literature. In these debates, cognition enhancers are considered to promise (or threaten) to drastically change society. Cognition enhancers, as a “new breed of drugs,” are significant as they disrupt the licit–illicit binary maintained in the moral logic of pharmaceutical legitimacy. Cognition enhancers, despite putatively going beyond the legitimate purpose of restoring health, are not considered illicit. Their specificity positions them differently from medical

The word “transnational” describes crimes that are not only international, but crimes that by their nature involve cross-border transference as an essential part of the criminal activity. Transnational crimes also include crimes that take place in one country, but their consequences significantly affect another country and transit countries may also be involved.

But as economic liberalization created new private demand for rural land from the 1990s onward, the pressure of inter-state competition and the lure of licit and illicit rents incentivized the government to begin dispossessing land for any privat

Abstract:
Background: Cannabis is the most commonly used illicit substance among young adults and is associated with a variety of negative consequences. Studies have shown that both cannabis demand and certain cannabis motives are associated with higher levels and frequency of cannabis use, as well as associated problems. No study has yet to examine the relationship between cannabis use motives and cannabis demand. The purpose of the current study was to examine the associations between individual cannabis motives and cannabis demand. Methods: Data were collected from 95 young adult cannabis users who r

Electoral corruption is one of the most serious threats to democracy and the fair electoral process. In essence, electoral corruption involves the manipulation of votes and electoral procedures through various illicit means such as bribery, intimidation, fraud and the use of public resources for partisan purposes.

Abstract:
Cybercrime, encompassing a broad spectrum of illicit activities executed through digital technologies, poses a critical threat to global security, economics, and individual privacy. Key methods, such as phishing, exploit user vulnerabilities by using deceptive techniques to acquire sensitive personal and financial data. Phishing-related offenses are explicitly addressed within legal frameworks, such as those outlined in the Penal Code, where they are classified under offenses against property and public safety. This underscores the integral role of legal structures in mitigating the growing ri

New psychoactive substances (NPSs) have also emerged that produce similar effects to those induced by illegal drugs, such as cocaine, cannabis, and amphetamines, but are not strictly regulated by international conventions. The rapid emergence since the mid-2000s of a large and diverse range of substances termed new psychoactive substances or

Abstract:
This rapid review focuses on the impact COVID-19 pandemic om poaching and illegal wildlife trafficking. It provides an overview of the recent research and summarises the key themes. This review found that poaching for the purpose of international trafficking of illegal wildlife products, generally decreased. These declines are largely attributed to the disruption of transportation routes used by wildlife traffickers to move illicit goods within Southern Africa and overseas by air, and in some locations to the effects of local lockdown measures.

Abstract:
Horizontality is a salient social phenomenon of the last decade. It asserts itself against hierarchies in social movements and countless other collective practices around the world. It constitutes a characteristic of an emergent sociality that demands the attention of the social sciences. The 2010s are a moment as important as “the Sixties”, a time when Ivan Illich called for the development of tools of conviviality, and horizontality may be categorized as one of them. Today’s horizontality may be related to that of populations that have been the focus of anthropologists interested in their lo

After data cleansing, 300 completed surveys were retained for analysis: 226 from Australian and 74 from New Zealand / Aotearoa.
