Was There a Bahraini Genocide? Sovereignty and State-Sponsored Sectarian Violence in 1920s Bahrain
This article explores state-sponsored sectarian violence in 1920s Bahrain and the key characteristics that violence shares with contemporary, sociological definitions of genocide, the most serious of crimes against humanity. Using colonial archives as well as other relevant documentary evidence—but also acknowledging limitations in these sources—the article applies what is known about the sectarian violence to Jacques Semelin's concept of the sub…
Getting Into Deep Water
Isle de Jean Charles is disappearing into the sea. Taking a critical eye to explanations of coastal land loss that focus on climate change as the primary cause, this article illustrates the nuanced drivers of the harm and the ways in which major stakeholders describe it. This case is analysed within the context of coastal land loss in Southern Louisiana. The analysis pays attention to state, corporate and green-cultural crime elements, based on e…
Policing in the Eastern Province of Saudi Arabia
This article examines the historical and political legacy of police–Shi'a relations in the Eastern Province of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. Shi'a form a significant minority population in the Kingdom. The group is oppressed socially, politically and economically by the Sunni, Wahhabi ruling class of the Kingdom, and this has shaped Saudi Arabian police strategies and tactics. Shi'a are nearly unrepresented among the leadership, rank and file of t…
Crime and justice
This special issue of ICJCAJ focuses on crime and justice involving Roma minority groups in the context of various European and North American democratic and democratically developing countries. Ro
Nothing to be done about them without them
This research contributes to police policy formation aiming to confront Roma social and political exclusion in Europe. Since Roma are technically protected by European national constitutions, as well as by the European Convention on Human Rights and Fundamental Freedoms and other human rights declarations, how Roma are handled by national governments, and in particular the police who may regularly encounter them in daily life, becomes an importan…
From colonial policing to community policing in Bahrain
This paper focuses on the history of policing in the Kingdom of Bahrain, a small Arab, Muslim country. The historical discourse about Bahraini policing, though scant, has not adequately confronted the role the police have had in protecting Sunni hegemony in a majority Shī'á majority nation, a residual feature of colonialism. Through colonial records, press accounts, and Bahraini historical sources, the importance of sectarian politics in the deve…
Progressive or Neo-Traditional?
Theoretical models of how policewomen have emerged in modern nation-states—from segregated policewomen's units to full integration—were built without theoretical or empirical contributions derived from the experiences of policewomen in Arab/ Muslim countries. Meaningful analytics for how societies allow for female police, and whether these officers serve in integrated units with policemen, cannot be divorced from a description of cultural process…
Attitudes about gender integration among Bahraini policewomen
This research explored Bahraini policewomen's attitudes towards gender integration of their police force. It tests two duelling hypotheses. The first hypothesis, embracing the modernisation model of the development of women in policing, predicts that younger generations of policewomen will be more likely to show support for gender integration. The second hypothesis is that the shift in the Bahraini culture from a nationalist secular feminism in t…
Policing Housemaids
This research stems from ethnographic observations in 2005 and 2006 of the women's sections of police stations in Bahrain. It uncovered details of a larger social and economic problem in the Arabian Gulf countries involving the unique legal status of the female expatriate guest workers. Housemaids or former housemaids formed the majority of female defendants who were ethnographically observed at Bahrain's local police stations. Observations revea…
Cultural criminology and kryptonite
The current study utilizes a cultural criminological approach to examine paradigms of justice portrayed in American comic books. Based on a review of the literature, we hypothesize that the dominant crimes depicted in comic books are violent street crimes and that the portrayed responses to these crimes are executed outside the rule of law by an avenging protagonist. According to the literature surveyed, comic book protagonists seek to restore pu…
