Milk and meat consumption patterns and the potential risk of zoonotic disease transmission among urban and peri-urban dairy farmers in Ethiopia
Creating awareness about the risk factors for zoonotic transmission of diseases through training and media campaigns, improving meat hygiene through better abattoir services, and inducing behavioural change around meat sourcing, raw meat and raw milk consumption, are all crucial to the successful prevention and control of the spread of zoonotic diseases, including bTB
North American Genocides: Indigenous Nations, Settler Colonialism, and International Law
When and how might the term genocide appropriately be ascribed to the experience of North American Indigenous nations under settler colonialism? Laurelyn Whitt and Alan W. Clarke contend that, if certain events which occurred during the colonization of North America were to take place today, they could be prosecuted as genocide. The legal methodology that the authors develop to establish this draws upon the definition of genocide as presented in …

Domestic Abuse and Elder Abuse in Wales: A Tale of Two Initiatives
The abuse of older people in domestic settings is both a public health problem and a human rights issue. In 2013, the Welsh government used its new legislative powers and embarked upon two initiatives in the areas of adult safeguarding and domestic abuse, leading to the introduction of two pieces of primary legislation. The first was the Social Services and Well-being (Wales) Act 2014, which placed safeguarding ‘adults at risk’ on a statutory bas…
Power, Construction and Meaning in Festivals
The Finnish housing fair is an event that promotes the quality of housing and living conditions in Finland by displaying building products and buildings in a different city across the country each year. It attracts more than 110,000 visitors steadily since five decades. This chapter details how this community event is planned, constructed and valued since its inception in 1966. The focus on processes shows that early strategy, flexibility and ada…

Access to Justice for Victims/Survivors of Elder Abuse: A Qualitative Study
Elder abuse can be conceptualised as a social problem, a crime problem and a human rights issue. This article presents the findings from an evaluation of the ‘Access to Justice’ Pilot Project for victims/survivors 1 of elder abuse, which was launched in 2010 as part of the Welsh Government's six-year integrated strategy for tackling domestic abuse. It was designed to address the needs of older people in domestic settings and facilitate their acce…
Exploring Community Festivals and Events
Book abstract:This book for the first time explores the role and importance of ‘community’, ‘culture’ and its impact through festivals and events. Split into two distinct sections, the first introduces key themes and concepts, contextualises local traditions and culture, and investigates how festivals and events can act as a catalyst for tourism and create a sense of community. It then questions the social and political nature of festivals and co…
Making Safe’: A Coordinated Community Response to Empowering Victims and Tackling Perpetrators of Domestic Violence
This article describes an exploratory study of the Making Safe Scheme, which is a multi-agency initiative designed to provide a coordinated and integrated response to domestic violence by focusing on both victims and perpetrators. A key feature of the intervention is that it enables victims to remain in their own homes, provided it is considered safe to do so, and re-houses perpetrators. Consequently, the wrong-doer leaves the home and practition…
From ‘Rights to Action’: Practitioners' perceptions of the needs of children experiencing domestic violence
Not only has research over the past decade documented the emotional and behavioural consequences for children who witness domestic violence, but a number of studies have used children as participants thus, giving them an opportunity to describe their experiences in their own words. In policy terms, there has been a growing emphasis on children's rights and the importance and understanding of children's perspectives on their own lives. Consequentl…

Crime, capital punishment, and knowledge: Are criminal justice majors better informed than other majors about crime and capital punishment
Criminal justice agencies increasingly seek better educated employees, who should have greater knowledge of criminal justice issues. This has lead to an increase in the number of students majoring in criminal justice. This study employed a non-random, convenience sampling design of 730 college students of various ranks and majors at a mid-sized, 4-year public university in Michigan to determine what impact a criminal justice education had on know…

Policing the past: Cold Case Studies, Forensic Evidence and Retroactive Social Control1
In this article an empirically grounded study of the police practices used when conducting cold case reviews of unsolved homicides is used to illuminate the key features of what is termed 'retroactive social control'. It is suggested that this mode of social control, that works by placing past events under new descriptions, is an increasingly important feature of how social control is being imagined and delivered, and is predicated upon the capac…

Local Enterprise Boards: The Short History of a Radical Initiative
Local enterprise boards were first developed as radical initiatives For economic intervention in the early 1980s. Despite the closeness of their dates of birth, however, and the apparent similarity of the organizational forms (and titles) which they adopted, the differences between the boards were as significant as their shared features. The ambitions of each of the five first‐wave boards were quite distinct. Some were more radical than others: s…

Early Adversity and Adoptive Solutions
A belief that early experience has profound influences on later development has been common for hundreds of years, reinforced in the middle of the last century by the early work of John Bowlby. Such views were rapidly transformed by research on the mainly good outcomes for children rescued from severe adversity. Ann and Alan Clarke have researched this field for more than 40 years and sample here some relevant research findings and their implicat…

The Uncertainty of Crisis in Professional Football
The field of leisure studies has gained from interdisciplinary approaches to the subject. This trend is now being threatened by the introduction of a narrowly defined economic approach. With this view becoming increasingly pervasive, the authors attempt to highlight some of the limitations of such an approach. By concentrating on professional football in England, the authors hope to demonstrate the difficulties raised by such work in a way which …
The limitations of economic analysis — the case of professional football
The analysis of sport and leisure is being increasingly conducted from an economic perspective, thereby endangering some of the benefits the field of leisure studies has gained from an interdisciplinary approach. We feel that this problem is reinforced by the introduction of a narrow definition of this economic approach. This article attempts to highlight some of the limitations of an orthodox economic focus on professional football in England, a…

United We Stand: Differences Between White and Nonwhite College Students in Their Views on Terrorism and Punishment of Terrorists
On September 11, 2001, almost 3000 people died due to terrorist attacks on U.S. soil. Almost all Americans were shocked and saddened by these attacks and agreed that those responsible must be brought to justice. However, not everyone had the same views. College students at two midwestern universities were surveyed. On 13 of 21 questions, there were significant bivariate differences between White and Nonwhite students. Generally, the differences b…
The forensic science needs of law enforcement applicants and recruits: A survey of Michigan law enforcement agencies
Many colleges and universities offer forensic science courses ranging from a single introductory class to majors. Previous research has not addressed how valuable these courses are to undergraduate criminal justice students who aspire to enter the law enforcement field. A random sample of law enforcement agencies in Michigan were surveyed. Seventy-eight percent of respondents agreed that knowledge of forensic science was important and 46% preferr…
