Feminist approaches to justice at Beijing +30
This editorial introduction presents a special monograph issue of Current Sociology titled “Feminist Approaches to Justice at Beijing +30,” guest-edited by Rosemary Barberet, Dawn Beichner-Thomas, and Sheetal Ranjan. The issue marks the 30th anniversary of the Beijing Declaration and Platform for Action (BPfA), a landmark 1995 framework for gender equality that has shaped global advocacy, policy, and research yet remains under-analyzed in contemp…
Beyond victimhood
The Beijing Declaration and Platform for Action (1995) are seminal cornerstones of global gender equality policy that have shaped the work of the Commission on the Status of Women for the past 30 years. They have also served as a basis, benchmark, or ideal for academic researchers to align with global gender equality objectives. However, they have not been the focus of systematic research in feminist criminology. We conducted a systematic content…
Barriers to the Advancement of Women Judges in the Judicial Profession in Spain
Despite women being the majority in the Spanish judiciary, they rarely hold the most powerful positions. The aim of this work is to explore why Spanish women judges fail to occupy such positions. To this end, a cross-sectional, exploratory study with a qualitative design was carried out. Specifically, 29 semi-structured interviews were conducted with judges working in the judiciary in Spain, 11 men and 18 women. Almost all those interviewed asser…

The right to commemoration and “ideal victims”
This article explores the puzzle of victim dissatisfaction with State-led commemoration following 9/11 and 3/11 by offering a cross-national case study through which to view key areas of theoretical debate in the sociology of human rights, cultural trauma and collective memory, and the politics of victimhood. Although State-led commemorative processes are often highly contested, we would expect them to be less so in the cases of 9/11 and 3/11, gi…
UN Rules for the Treatment of Women Prisoners and Non-Custodial Sanctions for Women Offenders (the Bangkok Rules)
In 2010, the United Nations adopted the United Nations Rules for the Treatment of Women Prisoners and Non-Custodial Measures for Women Offenders (the "Bangkok Rules"). This was a landmark step in adapting the 1955 Standard Minimum Rules for the Treatment of Prisoners to women offenders and prisoners, and was an important precursor for the revision of the 1955 rules themselves. As 'soft law', they are human rights principles that recognize that fe…

International Crime and Justice
International crime and justice is an emerging field that covers international and transnational crimes that have not been the focus of mainstream criminology or criminal justice. This book examines the field from a global perspective. It provides an introduction to the nature of international and transnational crimes and the theoretical perspectives that assist in understanding the relationship between social change and the waxing and waning of …
The Legacy of Interpol Crime Data to Cross‐National Criminology
INTERPOL crime data constitute the oldest and most continuous cross‐national data series available to criminologists. Recently, INTERPOL has decided to forego its data collection efforts. This paper, based on a systematic and extensive literature review, will examine how criminologists and other social scientists have used INTERPOL data to examine critical issues in the description and explanation of cross‐national crime. It will end with a criti…
The Internationalization of Criminology? A Content Analysis of Presentations at American Society of Criminology Conferences
This research uses a content analysis of the presentations at the American Society of Criminology conferences in the 1990s to examine the internationalization of American criminology. During this decade, developments external to the American Society of Criminology, as well as internal developments, suggested that the disciplines of criminology and criminal justice were becoming increasingly internationalized. Internationalization is desirable for…
Intimate Partner Violence in Spain
This article summarizes the findings from the first nationally representative survey on intimate partner violence conducted in Spain. Although feminist groups have been very active in the advocacy of solutions for this problem in Spain for the past two decades, it was not until 1997 that the problem received general attention from the public, after a particularly dramatic case of wife abuse shocked Spanish society. The article also raises questio…
A Cross-cultural Comparison of Social Reform
In this exploratory cross-cultural study, we use interview data from representatives of social service, criminal justice, and policy-making agencies in two capital cities (Washington, D.C.) and Madrid, Spain) to compare responses to domestic violence within each country's sociolegal and cultural context. While both countries have patriarchal structures, there is great difference in the history, funding, development, and participants of the batter…
