Recent patterns and trends in UK dog theft
The last few years have witnessed growing concerns in the UK over the offence of dog theft. Despite this comparatively little has been written on the phenomenon of dog theft in the UK. The aims of this article are (1) to identify variation in the extent of dog theft in the UK for the period 2020–2022 and (2) to determine patterns of dog theft during this period. To achieve these aims, the article presents an analysis of Police FOI data for the pe…
(No) Pets on University Campuses
Rising pet ownership in advanced economies such as the United Kingdom has coincided with growing demand for pet‐friendly environments, reflecting the deepening significance of human and companion animal relationships. Universities have increasingly acknowledged the therapeutic potential of domesticated animals for student well‐being, yet institutional recognition of pet‐friendly policies remains limited and often anthropocentric. This paper explo…
An Exploration of Dog-Related Policy Through a Legal Animal Geographies Lens
This article employs a legal animal geographies lens to redefine dogs as more-than-property, focusing on the UK's legislative shift from the Theft Act 1968 to the Pet Abduction Act 2024, recognising their sentience. We explore how evolving societal values reshape legal frameworks, emphasising dogs' emotional and social significance in human-dog relations. The study examines three legislative approaches - controlling out-of-place animals, regulati…
Religiosity and Fear of Crime Victimization
In this study, we developed three hypotheses about the role of religiosity in fear of crime victimization. Noting that religiosity and fear of victimization vary significantly by gender, we also examined to what extent religiosity affects fear of victimization by gender. We utilized Wave 2 of the Chapman University fear study. We developed three measures of religiosity: salience, service attendance, and biblical literalism. We used factor analysi…
Too hot to handle”
Pets are socially, culturally, emotionally, and economically entangled in human lives. For humans, pets are loved, and the bond between human and pet extends beyond companionship to incorporate emotional and mental health benefits. Pet theft is a crime that exploits these emotional relationships with pets being stolen for ransom, reward, resale, and breeding. In this paper we explore the emotional geographies of online search/ing for missing and …
Experiences of dog theft and spatial practices of search/ing
Public responses to an 'upward trend' in recorded dog theft offences in England and Wales led to the creation of the Pet Theft Taskforce in May 2021, followed by a policy paper recommending the development of a new 'pet abduction' offence. Despite this, the experiential nature of dog theft, what impact this has on victims, and how they go about searching for their stolen dogs have been overlooked. Building on interdisciplinary research on dog the…
The welfare of wildlife
Wildlife trade-both legal and illegal-is an activity that is currently the focus of global attention. Concerns over the loss of biodiversity, partly stemming from overexploitation, and the corona virus pandemic, likely originating from wildlife trade, are urgent matters. These concerns though centre on people. Only sometimes does the discussion focus on the wildlife traded and their welfare. In this article, we make the case as to why welfare is …
The effect of large-scale anti-contagion policies on the Covid-19 pandemic
Gerald “Jerry” Goldstein (1931–2017)
Presents an obituary of Gerald "Jerry" Goldstein (1931-2017). Jerry passed away at his home in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, on April 8, 2017. Goldstein was famous for his contributions to the establishment of clinical neuropsychology as a science and professional specialty. In addition to his extraordinary service to the specialty, he made important contributions to the neuropsychology of alcoholism and schizophrenia, as well as to neuropsychologica…
Contact After Adoption
This chapter delves into the intricate dynamics of the mother-child bond during and after maternal incarceration, using Ethiopia as its locus. It examines the various forms of contact—permanent, partial, and broken—between incarcerated mothers and their children, analysing the implications through the lens of attachment theory. The harsh conditions of Ethiopian prisons, characterised by overcrowding and inadequate resources, are explored for thei…
An incredibly vile sport’
Otter hunting was a minor field sport in Britain but in the early years of the twentieth century a lively campaign to ban it was orchestrated by several individuals and anti-hunting societies. The sport became increasingly popular in the late nineteenth century and the Edwardian period. This paper examines the arguments and methods used in different anti-otter hunting campaigns 1900–1939 by organisations such as the Humanitarian League, the Leagu…
Mere Equals
In the New Testament, the book of Timothy instructs all readers to "[l]et the woman learn in silence with all subjection" (Chapter 2, verse 11).The early national period in the United States proved to be an era that extended political and education opportunities to populations that was previously denied them.However, if, as Gordon Wood argues (1991), the revolutionary generation and the early national period that followed were seminal eras in Ame…
A Review of Critical Quality Inquiry
In an age of growing concern over issues of social justice, Gaile S. Canella, Michelle Salazar Perez, and Penny A. Pasque offer a refreshing examination of the process and purpose of conducting Critical Qualitative inquiry. A series of essays from noted scholars examine the researcher paradigm in a novel paradigm: globalization and social justice. The reviewer examined the collection of essays as someone who has had little experience with this fo…
Research, When You Know What You’re Doing
Maria J. Mayan’s publication of Essentials of Qualitative Inquiry (2009) provides a broad introduction to the scope and process of conducting qualitative research. The author used many of the same concepts in his dissertation and continues to conduct qualitative inquiry, often times using Mayan’s book as a useful resource in structuring his research. The book outlined qualitative philosophies, methodologies, and data analysis procedures used in q…
Learning Autoethnography
Tony E. Adams, Stacy Jones, and Carolyn Ellis’ publication of Autoethnography explains the scope and process of conducting autoethnographic research and its uses of self-examination and society. As a recent graduate, the author examined his own experiences in graduate school and the debates over quantitative and qualitative research methodologies as he read the text. The book outlined the purposes, procedures, and methods to determine validity in…
A Life-Style Physical Activity Intervention and the Antibody Response to Pneumococcal Vaccination in Women
OBJECTIVE: To assess whether a life-style physical activity intervention improved antibody response to a pneumococcal vaccination in sedentary middle-aged women. METHODS: Eighty-nine sedentary women completed a 16-week exercise (physical activity consultation, pedometer, telephone/e-mail prompts; n = 44) or control (advisory leaflet; n = 45) intervention. Pneumococcal vaccination was administered at 12 weeks, and antibody titers (11 of the 23 con…
Organic Public Geographies
A new field of “public geographies” is taking shape (Fuller 2008) in geography's mainstream journals. While much is “traditional”, with intellectuals disseminating academic research via non- academic outlets (Castree 2006; Mitchell 2008; Oslender 2007), less visible is the “organic” work and its “more involved intellectualizing, pursued through working with area-based or single-interest groups, in which the process itself may be the outcome” (War…
