Abstract:
This article offers a criminological analysis of murders for hire, from the moment of their regulation in the current Criminal Code of the Russian Federation until 2019. Since the procedure of statistical registration of these crimes changed several times during this period, comparable indicators were presented based on these changes. The base period is from 2003 to 2019. In the course of criminological analysis, the authors used official statistical data and calculated the dynamics of absolute and relative indicators (growth rates, specific weight, intensity coefficient) of crimes of the stud

Calls to hire more diverse faculty members in South African and Canadian universities have long standing histories. The pace of implementation of proposals to appoint more Black and women faculty members was slow. It was partly pressures from the #RhodesMustFall student movement in South Africa (2015) and renewed calls to address anti-Black racism in Canada post the murder of George Floyd in the United States (2020) that prompted post-secondary institutions in these countries to take concrete action towards instituting campus wide transformations to address questions of equity, diversity, and

Abstract:
My subject is the story of the entry of lawyers into the English criminal courts and their impact on trial procedure. Until the eighteenth century lawyers played little part in the trial of felonies in England—in the trial, that is, of those accused of the most serious offenses, including murder, rape, arson, robbery, and virtually all forms of theft. Indeed, the defendants in such cases were prohibited at common law from engaging lawyers to act for them in court. In the case of less-serious crimes—misdemeanors—defendants were allowed counsel; and those accused of high treason, the most seriou

A gloomy flashback, hand in hand with a concept, experience, and fantasy, influence the expression of her pieces and structures the literary space.

Abstract:
The previous chapter advanced discourses about practical solutions to classical music’s exclusion problem relative to women, neurodiverse, and cultural workers from low socioeconomic backgrounds. In Moving Beyond @operaisracist: Exploring Blacktivism as a Pathway to Antiracism and Creative Justice in Opera and (Un)Silencing Blacktivism in Opera: A Conversation about the Letter to the Opera Field from Black Administrators, I document how the Black Opera Alliance and Black Administrators of Opera have compelled opera companies to sign a pledge for racial equity as the first step towards racial justice in classical music post George Floyd’s state-sanctioned murder in May of 2020. The pledge compels opera companies to (1) hire Black artists, (2) require staff, orchestra members, and independent contractors to reflect the racial demographics of our most diverse communities, (3) program and prioritize works by Black composers, (4) hire more Black creatives and production personnel, (5) require that visual artists undergo training in successfully preparing Black artists for the stage, (6) review the organisation’s hiring practices and policies for racism, (7) review the board’s recruitment culture, (7) and include within the company’s official code of conduct a commitment to anti-racism, and anti- oppression. Furthermore, the Black Administrators of Opera suggested that opera companies (1) commit to equity in salaries and promotion opportunities, (2) commit to company-wide racial equity education and professional development, (3) commit to equitable hiring and recruitment practices, (4) commit to company-wide intentional inclusion in the execution of mission and programs, and (5) commit to adequately funding company diversity, equity, and inclusion initiatives and working groups.

Abstract The Attic orators paint a dismal picture of Athenian politics. Their speeches over flow with stories of bribery, deceit, perjury, treason, and murder. Speakers in the Assembly hire themselves out to foreign powers, magistracies are bought and sold like merchandise in the agora, innocent men are condemned to death on flimsy charges, and ambassadors conspire with the enemy to destroy Athens’ allies. In deed, if one were to believe everything one reads in their speeches, one might well come to the conclusion there was not one honest politician in all of Athens. Among the masterpieces of this sordid genre are the accounts of the Peace of Philocrates given respectively by Aeschines and Demosthenes.

Abstract:
In the movies, chemical companies maximize profits by poisoning their customers, workers, neighbors, and the environment, or they terrorize or outright kill the heroic insider who becomes a whistleblower. English professor Phillip Lopate argued in the New York Times that movies about business in general present a cartoon view of corporate structure (usually there isn’t one), making them the “fantasy villain,” a nearly faceless evil represented in the narrative by a “wall of Suits” (Lopate 2000). Business professor Ribstein goes further and asserts that the overwhelmingly negative view of business in American film narratives is fueled by filmmakers who feel their artistic vision is constrained by profit-making capitalists (Ribstein 2005). Ribstein begins his argument with a summary of nine movies about “Evil Corporations.” He doesn’t appear to realize that seven of them were companies that handle or produce chemicals: The China Syndrome (1979), Silkwood (1983), The Fugitive (1993), A Civil Action (1998), The Insider (1999), Erin Brockovich (2000), and Mission: Impossible II (2000). All of these films, and many others, were considered for inclusion in this chapter but, as the fastest growing category of chemistry in the movies, only two from this evil seven made it into the present chapter: Silkwood (1983) and Erin Brockovich (2000). The evil chemical company theme plays out in several ways. In the deeply satiric comedy Kids in the Hall: Brain Candy (1998), the pharmaceutical company’s happiness drug provides a foundation upon which the comedy troupe bases their humor. This chemical gravitas also lends weight to a number of fictional dramas that explore the theme of toxicity, such as One Man (1977), I Love Trouble (1994), and The Constant Gardener (2005). The company presidents in these movies murder, or hire thugs to murder, the individuals who choose to expose the toxicity of their products. Evil chemical companies are found in “based on a true story” dramas such as in Silkwood (1983), Erin Brockovich (2000), and Bhopal Express (2001). Knowing that the story is based on true tales of toxic chemicals lends considerable weight to these story lines.

Abstract One of the chief difficulties in the way of passing a federal anti-lynching law is the attitude of many members of Congress on the constitutionality of such a measure. These Congressmen either hold or hide behind the opinion that lynching is murder and, therefore, the Federal Government has no more constitutional right to step into a state and punish lynching than it has to do likewise and punish murder.

Abstract:
Abstract As knowledge of the legionary articles spread, defending Eliade’s innocence became more difficult, and continuing to do so threatened Culianu’s reputation for intellectual independence. To resolve the dilemma—and the contradictory demands of scholarly integrity and personal loyalty—he sought to publish Ricketts’s translation of those articles, along with others that could be characterized as philo-Semitic, accompanied with an interpretive apparatus that would construe the problematic evidence as exculpatory. Although he sought to hide this initiative from Mrs. Eliade, she learned of it, took legal steps to block it, and began viewing him with suspicion. Notwithstanding her ferocious opposition, Culianu made three attempts to bring out such a volume, and papers related to it were on his desk at the time of his death. Many theories have been about who was responsible for his murder, which most attribute to the Romanian secret service or to former legionaries living in Chicago. While both theories are plausible, there are serious problems with both. Culianu’s desperate wish to preserve the translated legionary articles suggests they were somehow connected to the threats on his life. The possibility emerges that Christinel Eliade, enraged at what she experienced as a profound betrayal, voiced her outrage to someone who decided to solve the problem for her.

Abstract:
Chapter 4 further unspools the historical thread for covert action. It focuses initially on the Eisenhower administration’s adoption of assassination as a means of advancing US interests in Africa. On the heels of a chilling initiative in the Congo came the first major setback for covert action in the modern era, a paramilitary operation at the Bay of Pigs in Cuba during the Kennedy administration. This chapter examines the many CIA assassination attempts against the life of Cuba’s leader, Fidel Castro. All of them failed, even when the CIA hired US mobsters as professional hitmen—a low moral point in the US government’s choices of foreign policy options. The chapter also examines efforts by the Nixon administration to overthrow the regime of Salvador Allende in Chile.
