  • On the Unreliability of Multiple Systems Estimation for Estimating the Number of Potential Victims of Modern Slavery in the UK

    John Whitehead, James Jackson et al.ARTICLEJournal of Human Trafficking2021

    Accurate records of victims of modern slavery identified by various agencies allow investigators to compare different jurisdictions, track fluctuations in prevalence over time and evaluate preventative interventions.

To estimate the number of undetected …

  • Child Sexual Abuse in Fiji

    John Whitehead, James A Roffee et al.ARTICLECurrent Issues in Criminal Justice2016

    While child sexual abuse is a problem worldwide, the risk factors for the perpetration of child sexual abuse within Fiji are unique in their relation to the traditional and communal nature of Fijian society. In this article, culturally relevant dynamic risk factors found within contemporary Fijian society are identified and understood alongside static factors contributing to abuse.

    John WhiteheadBOOKLife of the Rev. John Wesley, M.…2013

    Published in 1793–6, amid controversy following the death of John Wesley (1703–91), this two-volume work vied with others for status as the most authentic biography of the Methodist leader. Wesley had left his papers to his physician John Whitehead (c.1740–1804) and the ministers Thomas Coke and Henry Moore, but Whitehead monopolised the papers in the preparation of his biography, refusing to allow his fellow executors access - the dispute is men…

  • Western Progressives, Old South Planters, or Colonial Oppressors

    John Whitehead, John S WhiteheadARTICLEWestern Historical Quarterly1999

    Territorial Hawaii was controlled economically, and to an extent, politically, by a group of sugar factors known as the Big Five. Mainland journalists and government officials criticized the influence of the oligarchy and made regional comparisons. This article argues that such criticism reflected West Coast prejudices against Hawaii's Asian labor force as much as specific actions of the Big Five
