Abstract:
This paper investigates the use of the anomalous term ‘man robbery’ in historical records relating to convict women in New South Wales. We question its accuracy as a criminal offence and conclude that its use in the 1830s was an administrative code that summarized an assessment not only of the women’s criminality but also of their morality. Its use in the historical records has been accepted uncritically by modern historians. The anomaly was identified through a large-scale study of these records. Often used to trace the histories of individual women for genealogical research, recurring patterns in the records are more noticeable when considering the crimes of some 5000 women transported to New South Wales, especially when their court records held in Britain are compared with those held in Australia. Evidence has emerged that the criminality of the women has been reduced by this gendered criminal offence. Inconsistency in the application of the term ‘man robbery’ led us to question it accuracy. Violence and participation in gangs were airbrushed from the records by the use of a term that implied that the women’s crimes related to their sexuality rather than their skills as criminals.

Abstract:
The failure of rape law to convict more men and to protect more women appears to be attributable to the fact that underlying, and assumed by, the law is a male dominated conception of aggressive and possessive male sexuality and a misunderstanding of the real wrong of rape. The sentencing stage of criminal proceedings offers courts the opportunity to challenge these attitudes. Court of Appeal sentencing decisions in cases of marital and relationship rape are analysed and sentencing principles and practice which endorse and reinforce a male dominated conception of sexuality and the wrong of rape are criticised. So, it is argued, an intimate relationship between the offender and the victim should not be a mitigating factor. Nor should forgiveness be a special mitigating factor in cases of marital rape. And attempts to mitigate rape by explaining it in terms of emotional stress, an excess of seductive zeal or other ways that treat aggressive male sexual behaviour and female passivity as the norm, should not be countenanced. Instead, sentencing guidance should foster attitudes which conceive of sexuality as an expression of equal and sharing relationships.

Abstract:
Now at the acme of her slow-burn career—she turned 72 last year—Claire Denis is producing work that is superlative. Her newest works conjure feelings of an unrivalled intensity and tenderness. This article considers her English-language sci-fi film High Life (2018) and her French rom-com Un Beau Soleil Intérieur [Let the Sunshine In] (2017) in parallel, arguing that the two films converge as forceful meditations on love and death. In the world of Denis, tenderness characterizes the gentlest, most delicate feelings, but is also about vulnerability, a sensitivity to pain. Denis brings these qualities into relief as she contemplates death and a finite future through these two stories of a female artist exploring relationships and of convict passengers on a space ship. Through the roles of actress Juliette Binoche in each film, Denis takes a feminist stance on ageing and sexuality, as she also looks openly at other human feelings.

Abstract:
Objective — assessing the current prevalence of sexually transmitted infections (STIs) and HIV in prisons in the context of a holistic consideration of the problem, and taking into account our own pilot studies on the prevalence of herpes simplex virus infection type 1 (HSV-1) and disorders of the psycho-emotional state of patients. Materials and methods. The search was carried out in accordance with the recommendations of PRISMA 2009, 2020 (The Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic reviews and Meta-Analyses). The data of own research of 33 convicted men and 29 women are also presented. Results and discussion. Among 33 convicted men, IgM HSV-1 markers were diagnosed in 6.7 % cases, and among 29 women — in 4.9 % cases, IgG HSV-1 markers — in 92.8 % and 96.9 % cases, respectively. In the process of assessing the psycho-emotional state of patients with HSV-1 markers, the average scores on the scale of anxiety and depression (HADS) ranged from 7.6 to 8.9 points, which directly correlated with the duration of the disease, the number of exacerbations and rash in the labial, genital and perianal areas (61.9—71.4 %).Despite the difficult material, logistical and sanitary conditions in penitentiaries, they may be more favorable to the vast majority of convicts than the way of life they lived in freedom, given the fact that vulnerable groups often do not have adequate access to health care services. For most of them, imprisonment is an opportunity to get the treatment, preventive measures and basic health information they need. Conclusions. The significant prevalence of STIs/HIV in the penitentiary institutions of the world has been confirmed. Among convicts in Ukraine, serological markers of HSV-1 are quite common.

Abstract:
This thesis explores the moral and sexual anxieties produced by the transportation of male convicts to the penal colonies of Australia. My aims are twofold. First, this study argues that male sexuality lay at the heart of penal and colonial political discourse. The moral anxieties this both reflected and produced directly informed the penal administration of the convict population. This was implicit in the ways that convict bodies were ordered, surveilled, disciplined and accommodated. In this analysis the sexual and behavioural management of male prisoners is considered to be a fundamental dynamic within contemporary perceptions of criminal reformation. Second, this thesis examines the ways that these moral concerns permeated the wider colonial society. Free British settlers took their cultural cargo with them to the colonies. In the context of the penal colonies, they also had to negotiate the specific cultural and social implications of transportation. The moral concerns of colonial society were often played out around the politics of imperial transportation. This is examined through a consideration of the cultural meanings of colonial discourse and the many tensions that lay beneath it. During the slow transition from penal colony to respectable free society, colonists utilised and manipulated their moral and cultural anxieties in a number of political ways. This thesis argues that the moral and sexual anxieties of colonial society were both real and imagined. They informed a variety of discourses that linked the colonial periphery with the metropolitan centre in a relationship that was reciprocal but also antagonistic.

Full text
Abstract:
This thesis explores the experiences of imprisonment of men held in HMP Stafford, an English medium-security prison for men convicted of sexual offences. Sex offenders constitute a significant proportion of the prison population – almost one in five sentenced adult men have been convicted of a sex offence – but they have been consistently overlooked by prison researchers. In this thesis, I redress this imbalance by exploring the experiences of a hitherto overlooked group, and generate some theoretical insights which will be of relevance to wider studies of imprisonment. The thesis is based on an in-depth ethnographic study conducted over a five-month period. It included 42 long semi-structured interviews with prisoners, 12 shorter semi-structured interviews with prison officers, and extended periods of participant observation of day-to-day life in the prison. It focuses on three areas which were of particular salience to these men, all of which have been explored in detail in existing studies of mainstream imprisonment: first, the ways in which they adapted to their sentence; second, the sorts of social and moral communities they formed amongst themselves; and third, the relationships they formed with staff and the way the prison’s power operated on them. All three of these areas – adaptation, moral community and power – were inflected by two issues of even greater significance: the fact that they were serving sentences for sexual offences, and their resulting social identities as ‘sex offenders’. By drawing attention to this issue, I hope to move on from the conventional mode of understanding the prison, as a disciplinary institution structured solely by power, to one which takes more seriously the moral functions and effects of the prison as a condemnatory institution.

In 2005 the booklet "AIDS and the Churches: A Call to Action," was published by the organisation "Koinonia-Ecumenical Presence and Service" with the aim to motivate, among the Protestant churches, a response, prevention and care about the HIV/AIDS. The Religious Working Group (WG) was created by the State Programme of STD/AIDS in Sao Paulo to be an area in which the various religious traditions could talk and think about prevention strategies with the technical staff responsible for the health of the population. The booklet was published by public funds under the supervision of professionals in the Reference and Training Centre STD/AIDS . Through multipliers workshops for the public of various churches, the "AIDS and the Churches" has been used as a pedagogical tool for orientation and training. We explore the contents of this material, by analysing the most relevant issues, such as their goals and methodology. We emphasize the meaning of the term "therapeutic community" suggested by the ecumenical organisation, as a model of reception and care to people living with HIV/AIDS. We examine how the issues of AIDS, Sexuality and Dogma are related in the publication. We also assess which praxis used by Koinonia in the application of the booklet in the workshops for the multipliers. In the final considerations, we emphasize the cooperation between the State and Koinonia, through the publication of the booklet "AIDS and the Churches: A Call to Action," to overcome stigma and discrimination against people living with HIV / AIDS.
No ano de 2005 foi publicado o Caderno AIDS e Igrejas: um Convite à Ação , idealizado pela organização KOINONIA- Presença Ecumênica e Serviço e tendo como objetivo instigar nas igrejas protestantes, respostas de prevenção e de cuidado diante da pandemia de HIV/AIDS. O Grupo de Trabalho Religiões (GT) foi destinado pelo Programa Estadual de DST/AIDS para ser um espaço no qual as diversas matrizes religiosas pudessem dialogar e pensar em estratégias de prevenção juntamente com técnicos responsáveis pela saúde da população. O Caderno foi publicado mediante recursos públicos com a supervisão dos profissionais do Centro de Referência e Treinamento em DST/AIDS. Através das oficinas de multiplicadores destinadas ao público de diversas igrejas, o AIDS e Igrejas tem sido utilizado como instrumental didático para orientação e formação. Explicitamos os motivos que provocaram a relação entre as entidades envolvidas na publicação do Caderno. Exploramos o conteúdo presente no AIDS e Igrejas analisando os temas mais pertinentes como os seus objetivos e sua metodologia. Destacamos o sentido do conceito comunidade terapêutica sugerido pela organização ecumênica como modelo de acolhimento e cuidado às pessoas que vivem e convivem com HIV/AIDS. Igualmente verificamos como os temas AIDS, Sexualidade e Dogma se relacionam na publicação. Também avaliamos qual a práxis utilizada por KOINONIA na aplicação do Caderno nas oficinas que formam seus multiplicadores. Nas considerações finais ressaltamos a cooperação estabelecida entre o Estado e KOINONIA, através da publicação do Caderno AIDS e Igrejas: um Convite à Ação , na superação do estigma e da discriminação em relação às pessoas que vivem e convivem com HIV/AIDS.

Abstract:
State Prosecutor and legal reformer Erich Wulffen used the case study genre for legal and largely didactic purposes. Chapter 4 illustrates the adoption of the conventions of sexological case writing by the legal fraternity in twentieth-century Central Europe, and ways in which Wulffen brought the case study genre from the hidden world of the court to the wider public. In doing this, Wulffen carved a niche for himself as an expert in legal reform and sexology in Wilhelmine and Weimar Germany. He embraced different kinds of case modalities over the course of his professional career, targeting professional, middle-class audiences and the wider reading public during his thirty years in the role of prosecutor. The changing success of Wulffen’s publications highlights the intensifying crisis of the expert case study as a modality able to ‘speak the truth’ about modern sexuality and deviance. While Wulffen’s expert case studies about con men and other criminals were highly successful during the Wilhelmine era, the same approach and model for case writing met a more critical audience after 1918. Wulffen embraced the challenge of a new democratic environment by writing implicitly didactical popular crime novels. However, eventually his criminal subjects literally ‘wrote back’ after their sensationalised trials, using case studies in an attempt to narrate their own versions of events. The accounts of these criminals-turned-writers such as convicted paedophile Edith Cadivec. Thus the popularisation of sensationalist case studies, written, for instance, by perpetrators of crime, was an important factor in the case study genre’s loss of respectability.

Abstract:
This volume makes a contribution to the field of neurolaw by investigating issues raised by the development, use, and regulation of neurointerventions. The broad range of topics covered in these chapters reflects neurolaw’s growing social import, and its rapid expansion as an academic field of inquiry. Some authors investigate the criminal justice system’s use of neurointerventions to make accused defendants fit for trial, to help reform convicted offenders, or to make condemned inmates sane enough for execution, while others interrogate the use, regulation, and social impact of cognitive enhancement medications and devices. Issues raised by neurointervention-based gay conversion “therapy”, the efficacy and safety of specific neurointervention methods, the legitimacy of their use and regulation, and their implications for authenticity, identity, and responsibility are among the other topics investigated. The focus on neurointerventions also highlights tacit assumptions about human nature that have important implications for jurisprudence. For all we know, at present such things as people’s capacity to feel pain, their sexuality, and the dictates of their conscience, are unalterable. But neurointerventions could hypothetically turn such constants into variables. The increasing malleability of human nature means that analytic jurisprudential claims (true in virtue of meanings of jurisprudential concepts) must be distinguished from synthetic jurisprudential claims (contingent on what humans are actually like). Looking at the law through the lens of neurointerventions thus also highlights the growing need for a new distinction—between analytic jurisprudence and synthetic jurisprudence—to tackle issues that increasingly malleable humans will face when they encounter novel opportunities and challenges.

Abstract:
The prophets of the eighth and seventh centuries were social critics and also poets of great power who responded to internal social pressures and external military threats. Amos, Micah, and Hosea convict Israel and Judah of sin through carefully structured oracles and metaphors that fit the contours of particular social situations—and may be misunderstood by readers who do not know the prophet’s social context. Amos pioneers the language of exile. Micah exposes the corruption of Jerusalem’s elite, who stripped peasant farmers of their land, although he also finds hope for the city in YHWH’s vision of faithfulness in Zion. Hosea is the first to use the language of extreme intimacy—sexuality and marriage—to characterize the covenant between God and Israel. The books of Nahum and Jonah take opposing perspectives on the threatened destruction of Nineveh (Assyria); together they attest to the prophetic task of discovering a public voice for reckoning honestly with the hatred of national enemies.

Abstract:
The sexual exploitation of students is a worldwide problem. In the U.S., the problem is three-fold: (1) Ten percent of public school students report being sexually abused by a school employee. (2) There is little in the existing research that identifies and describes the school culture, patterns, and conditions in which educator sexual misconduct occurs. (3) Because no one has systematically documented the school culture and the behaviors and patterns of adults who sexually abuse children in schools, school professionals fail to understand what patterns and behaviors should trigger concern, supervision, investigation, and/or reporting. Stopping sexual misconduct directed toward students means understanding the process that adults use to prepare students to be abused so that they do not tell, do not fight, and acquiesce. This process, called grooming, has the purpose of gaining student trust, as well as the trust of parents and colleagues. This study examines school employee sexual misconduct toward students in school in the United States and is based upon an analysis of 222 cases of school employee sexual misconduct toward a student where a school employee was convicted of student sexual abuse. The findings identify red flag grooming patterns used with students, colleagues, and parents.
