Abstract:
In communities across America today, from Ferguson, Missouri, to Flint, Michigan, too many people—especially young people and people of color—live trapped by the weight of poverty and injustice. They suffer the disparate impact of policies driven by, at best, benign neglect, and at worst, deliberate indifference. And they see how discrimination stacks the deck against them. So today, as we discuss the inequality that pervades our criminal justice system—a defining civil rights challenge of the 21st century—we must also acknowledge the broader inequalities we face in other segments of society.

Abstract:
Over the last decade, dozens of states and the federal government have enacted “second chance” reforms that increase the eligibility of individuals arrested, charged, or convicted of crimes to shorten their sentences, clear their criminal records, and/or regain the right to vote. While much fanfare has accompanied the increasing availability of “second chances,” little attention has been paid to their delivery. This study introduces the concept of the “second chance gap,” which it defines as the difference between eligibility and delivery of second chance relief; explores its causes; and appro

Abstract:
Contemporary Queensland has a flourishing GLBTIQ (gay, lesbian, bisexual, transgender, intersex and queer) scene which, although still suffering from discrimination in a society that is premised around a heterosexual norm, is a far cry from the years before 1990 when male homosexuality was a criminal offence. The queer generation has largely moved beyond binaries in gender and sexuality, and at dance parties there is a blending of cultures that knows few of the old boundaries. These new freedoms to express sexuality mean that relationships develop more easily with less fear of opprobrium. Clas

Abstract:
Society has undergone an entire evolution in the field of criminal penalties, as people want to avoid, or ideally to extinguish, crime and consequent victimization. However, the human nature would hardly allow such utopian society to prevail. Hence, as individuals, we do have codes and bylaws that govern our society. The number of male prisoners is considerably higher in comparison to female prisoners. The aim of the present research is to analyze the sex inequality in the Portuguese criminal justice system, as well as to discuss the following questions: (i) Are men suffering from unjustifiabl

This article presents a quantitative survey of the administration of justice in Cheshire between 1840 and 1890. Drawing on a sample of 33,000 cases from assizes and quarter sessions across the county, it explores broad patterns in committals, prosecutions, and sentencing over the fifty-year period. To this end, the article is structured to follow defendants’ route through the criminal justice process; from committal through prosecution to sentencing. The final section of the article thereafter explores the differing patterns of each as it pertained to the sex of the accused.

Abstract:
Stereotypes and prejudices about certain groups in society lead to prejudice-motivated violence, hate speech, and discrimination. To punish crimes that occur because the victim belongs to a certain ethnic group, because of one's sex, gender, disability, religion, sexual orientation or some other protected characteristic that a person enjoys, the law is used today. For this reason, the authors analyze the criminal legal provisions that regulate the institute of hate crimes in North Macedonia, as well as the practice of the police and criminal justice authorities when it comes to recording these

AbstractThe UN Security Council's involvement in the area of international criminal justice raises concerns about judicial independence. Of primary concern in this study is the degree to which this political organ has come to determine and restrict jurisdiction of international criminal tribunals, with the effect of excluding cases involving alleged grave crimes by actors whose presence in situations of which the Council is seized is supported by its permanent members. This control, it will be argued, undermines the basic conditions for a sound administration of justice, as it impedes these tr

Throughout the nineties a range of factors, not least the series of suicides at Cornton Vale women's prison, highlighted concerns about how the criminal justice system deals with female offenders in Scotland. There has been a review of community-based disposals and the use of custody for women (Scottish Office, 1998a), an Inspection of Cornton Vale was conducted (HMI, 2001), and a Ministerial Group on Women's Offending was set up (Scottish Executive, 2002a). Despite this concern the numbers of female offenders being sentenced to custody has continued to rise. This study sought to examine the n

Abstract:
Many of the city’s women civic and political activists supported La Guardia during his many electoral campaigns. The women he appointed to his administration brought into his government the feminist and social justice ideals they had been espousing since the suffrage and progressive reform movements: an end to sex discrimination, an expansion of measures to benefit human welfare, and the achievement of pay equity and more career opportunities for women. They believed that they would carry out the mayor’s modernizing agendas as well as, if not better than, the men he had appointed as commissioners. This chapter highlights five women who made singular contributions to the success of the La Guardia administration: Rebecca Rankin, Eunice Hunton Carter, Jane Bolin, Elinore Herrick, and Anna Rosenberg.

Abstract:
This chapter draws on research commentary, practitioner engagement and lived experience across the authorship to reflect on the pressing issues for sex workers during the COVID-19 crisis in 2020–21. The chapter charts the effects of lockdown for a population who are already marginalized through working in the informal economy, which is partly criminalized and therefore cut off from the safety net of government social protection programmes. Those who have been victims of crime and receive support through the criminal justice process have been placed under additional uncertainty in relation to court attendance and outcomes for their cases. Due to court closures and uncertainty from the Crown Prosecution Service, victims have experienced stress regarding the progress of their cases. These experiences of social isolation and marginalization have compounded stigma and associated discrimination against sex workers. At the same time, support services were faced with changing the nature of their business with immediate effect as they became frontline emergency services, violence intervention workers, housing workers and the first point of contact for many people living in complete isolation with no food or money. This chapter reviews the immediate experiences of the lockdown, how ‘doing sex work’ has been affected and how service provision has used creative ways to respond to those in crisis.

Abstract:
Initially, automated decision-making was seen as a corrective to discrimination: no longer would one biased individual be able to allow his or her prejudices to control decisions about employment, housing, banking, or criminal justice. However, this promise has not been fulfilled. Rather, recent experiences with a variety of platforms and services suggests that algorithms may be reproducing—and in some cases, even amplifying—human biases. This chapter will explore the problem of discriminatory bias in algorithms and propose best practices for minimizing the problem.

Abstract:
Our conclusion questions the utility of an alliance between criminal justice and social services professionals that remains dominated by punitive criminal justice paradigms. The alliance’s ideological focus on changing individual women’s decision-making processes translates into practices that punish street-involved women for decisions they make in the context of the pervasive gender, class, and ethno-racial discrimination that limits their life choices. Hence even when street-involved women receive therapeutic social services in the alliance context, more often than not they return to the same socioeconomic conditions that impelled them to work the street in the first place. Street-based sex trading and the illicit drug use it often supports stem from and take place within the context of women’s complex lives in communities struggling with multiple oppressions. The nuances involved in such situations require pragmatic, evidence-based legislative and policy approaches that reflect these complex realities; without these, the system will continue to fail the very women it aims to assist.
