What About Us

Nos últimos trinta trinta anos, houve profundas mudanças na forma como compreendemos o crime e a justiça criminal. O crime tornou-se um evento simbólico, um verdadeiro teste para a ordem social e para as políticas governamentais, um desafio para a sociedade civil, para a democracia e para os direitos humanos. Segundo David Garland, professor da Faculdade de Direito da New York University, um dos principais autores no campo da Sociologia da Punição e com artigo publicado na Revista de Sociologia e Política , número 13, na modernidade tardia houve uma verdadeira obsessão securitária, direcionando as políticas criminais para um maior rigor em relação às penas e maior intolerância com o criminoso. Há trinta anos, nos EUA e na Inglaterra essa tendência era insuspeita. O livro mostra que os dois países compartilham intrigantes similaridades em suas práticas criminais, a despeito da divisão racial, das desigualdades econômicas e da letalidade violenta que marcam fortemente o cenário americano. Segundo David Garland, encontram-se nos dois países os “mesmos tipos de riscos e inseguranças, a mesma percepção a respeito dos problemas de um controle social não-efetivo, as mesmas críticas da justiça criminal tradicional, e as mesmas ansiedades recorrentes sobre mudança e ordem sociais”1 (GARLAND, 2001, p. 2). O argumento principal da obra é o seguinte: a modernidade tardia, esse distintivo padrão de relações sociais, econômicas e culturais, trouxe consigo um conjunto de riscos, inseguranças e problemas de controle social que deram uma configuração específica às nossas respostas ao crime, ao garantir os altos custos das políticas criminais, o grau máximo de duração das penas e a excessivas taxas de encarceramento.

新書介紹－－Learning as Transformation: Critical Perspectives on a Theory in Progress

This core belief, which unites members of the TJ community, is that the law has an agency, which may be either helpful (therapeutic) or harmful (anti-therapeutic). In saying that it has “agency,” we conceive of law not simply as an inanimate, reactive and abstract set of rules and processes, shaped and driven by external forces, but as a dynamic, organic and proactive social force, implemented by actors who have significant power and discretion to influence the extra-legal consequences of their legal work in both designing and applying law (for general discussion of the concepts of the therapeutic design of law (TDL) and therapeutic application of law (TAL), see Wexler 2015; this volume, Chapter 1). In characterizing that agency as “therapeutic,” we mean that, in its capacity as a social force of this nature, it can have both positive and negative consequences for the emotional and psychological wellbeing of all the individuals who come into contact with it and for all the human relationships it touches. By being aware of the existence, causes and consequences of these therapeutic and anti-therapeutic effects, even relatively small changes in how law is designed and applied can significantly improve its effectiveness and the way it contributes to a healthier and more resilient community.

Therapeutic jurisprudence-A strong community and a maturing discipline

This paper presents a brief overview of emerging issues in domestic violence research. Specifically, it sets out a research agenda in the context of rural and remote communities; gay, lesbian, bisexual, transgender and intersex (GLBTI) communities; domestic violence amongst the elderly, those with disabilities and in culturally and linguistically diverse (CALD) communities; domestic violence and homelessness; the impact on children; and perpetrator programs. This agenda does not purport to be exhaustive; in particular, it focuses on male perpetrators and the need for more research in relation to family violence in Indigenous communities should not be overlooked. Nonetheless, this paper aims to serve as a point of focus for the criminological community for future research in this context.

Domestic Violence: A Research Agenda

Same-sex couples are becoming parents in increasing numbers through the use of IVF and alternative insemination, and to a lesser degree through surrogacy and adoption Often these couples form their families using a sperm or egg donor whom they know, and who they have agreed will play an active role in their children’s lives In these circumstances, children may have more than two people who are their parents Birth certificates have not kept pace with all these changes in family structures Although every Australian state and territory allows children with two lesbian mothers to have both mothers registered on their birth certificates, there is no provision allowing for more than two parents to be recorded This article analyses the purpose of birth certificates, and the domestic and international law relating to these important documents It also considers what other countries are doing to ensure that children in same-sex families can have all their parents recorded on their birth certificates It concludes with recommendations about how Australia should modernise its birth certificates to allow for the recording of up to four parents

Outcome measures for evaluating the efficacy of juvenile justice programs

With growing prisoner and parole numbers, Australia is demonstrably failing to reduce recidivism and facilitate desistance from crime. This paper examines Australia’s parole compliance regime through the lens of therapeutic jurisprudence (‘TJ’), which we argue provides a valuable perspective for understanding how these laws can operate to break or further entrench the cycle of recidivism. Our analysis indicates that these laws are not currently ‘TJ-friendly’, as parole boards have little engagement with offenders, breaches of parole conditions are often subject to disproportionate responses and there is no legislative obligation for jurisdictions to integrate support services for parolees.
