Child Trafficking in the EU Policing and Protecting Europe’s Most Vulnerable

Child Trafficking in the EU Policing and Protecting Europe’s Most Vulnerable

Drawing on empirical research conducted with police in the UK and Romania Child Trafficking in the EU explores the way in which the ‘who’ and ‘how’ we police and protect as trafficker and trafficked is related to Western notions of innocence guilt childhood and of the status of ‘deserving’ victim.

This book explores core contextual themes surrounding the commission response to and origins of child trafficking and presents empirical research into the investigation of child trafficking within the EU situating the authors’ findings against broader social cultural political policy and judicial contexts. The authors conclude with a synthetisation of the key themes and arguments to situate pan-EU child trafficking within political criminal justice organisational cultural and social contexts and consider the degree to which such criminality can be can adequately addressed by current and emerging approaches given such enduring and persistent structural issues. This book will be of interest to scholars and students within the fields of criminology sociology political science and law as well as a key resource for practitioners and activists. | Child Trafficking in the EU Policing and Protecting Europe’s Most Vulnerable

Accessing the Clinical Genius of Winnicott A Careful Rendering of Winnicott’s Twelve Most Influential Clinical papers

Accessing the Clinical Genius of Winnicott A Careful Rendering of Winnicott’s Twelve Most Influential Clinical papers

Donald Winnicott psychoanalyst and pediatrician is viewed by many in the psychodynamic field as the “other genius” in the history of psychodynamic theory and practice along with Freud. This book selects and explores twelve of his most infl uential clinical papers. Winnicott’s works have been highly valued in the decades since they were first published and are still relevant today. Winnicott’s writings on the goals and techniques of psychodynamic psychotherapy have been foundational in that he recast Freudian- and Kleinian-infl uenced thinking in the direction of the more relational schools of psychotherapy that define current 21st-century psychodynamic practice. Winnicott’s writings help us to understand the maturational processes of children certainly. But more than that they help us to understand how best to intervene when the enterprise of childhood leads to compromises of psychological health in later years. Yet despite Winnicott’s influence and continuing relevance his writings while at some level simple are elusive to modern readers. For one thing he writes in the psychoanalytic genre of the 1930s-1960s whose underlying theoretical assumptions and vocabulary are obscure in the present day and for another his writing often reflects primary process thinking which is suggestive but not declarative. In this work Teri Quatman provides explanations and insight in an interlocution with Winnicott’s most significant papers exploring both his language and concepts and enabling the clinician to emerge with a deep and reflective understanding of his thoughts perspectives and techniques. Engaging and accessible Accessing the Clinical Genius of Winnicott will be of great use to anyone encountering Winnicott for the first time particularly in psychodynamic psychotherapeutic training and in the teaching of relational psychotherapies. | Accessing the Clinical Genius of Winnicott A Careful Rendering of Winnicott’s Twelve Most Influential Clinical papers

Pregnancy Delivery Childbirth A Gender and Cultural History from Antiquity to the Test Tube in Europe

Pregnancy Delivery Childbirth A Gender and Cultural History from Antiquity to the Test Tube in Europe

This book reconstructs the history of conception pregnancy and childbirth in Europe from antiquity to the 20th century focusing on its most significant turning points: the emergence of a medical-scientific approach to delivery in Ancient Greece the impact of Christianity the establishment of the man-midwife in the 18th century the medicalisation of childbirth the emergence of a new representation of the foetus as unborn citizen and finally the revolution of reproductive technologies. The book explores a history that far from being linear progressive or homogeneous is characterised by significant continuities as well as transformations. The ways in which a woman gives birth and lives her pregnancy and the postpartum period are the result of a complex series of factors. The book therefore places these events in their wider cultural social and religious contexts which influenced the forms taken by rituals and therapeutic practices religious and civil prescriptions and the regulation of the female body. The investigation of this complex experience represents a crucial contribution to cultural social and gender history as well as an indispensable tool for understanding today’s reality. It will be of great use to undergraduates studying the history of childbirth the history of medicine the history of the body as well as women's and gender history more broadly. | Pregnancy Delivery Childbirth A Gender and Cultural History from Antiquity to the Test Tube in Europe

California’s Recall Election of Gavin Newsom COVID-19 and the Test of Leadership

California’s Recall Election of Gavin Newsom COVID-19 and the Test of Leadership

California went through a political earthquake of sorts when the state recalled Governor Gray Davis in 2003. In 2021 the state faced another political turning point with the threatened recall of Governor Gavin Newsom. Less than two years after Newsom’s overwhelming election victory more than two million Californians signed on to the recall effort hoping to expel him from office in a special election. How could such a monumental turnabout be possible? Normally the political headwinds would be much too strong for a movement to oust a governor who had decisively vanquished his opponent. But-with the COVID-19 pandemic dominating every aspect of society including politics-these weren’t normal times. Organizing a recall election is a demanding enterprise: it takes abundant political energy tremendous amounts of anger with the status quo and mounds of money. Yet for the second time in less than two decades such wheels were set in motion. What is it that makes California so dynamic yet so fragile? This book explains that paradox and in the process enlightens readers about the recall process the challenges of federalism and the pitfalls of direct democracy. It examines the underlying conditions that expose a state with poorly linked institutions a bitterly divided society and a governor who had to act under nearly impossible conditions demonstrating his strengths and vulnerabilities along the way. It’s a story that could happen only in California a state with a history of only stories. Designed to be useful in a variety of college courses this book is the first to unveil the Newsom backstory and will appeal to pundits and politicos as well as interested general readers. | California’s Recall Election of Gavin Newsom COVID-19 and the Test of Leadership
