The analysis of DNA samples to solve crimes is something widely oberved in films and fiction series, however, does this really happen in everyday life? The present work consists of a bibliographical review, the objective of which is to provide a historical review of the development of Molecular Biology, its use in the forensic field and the main techniques used by it. In this sense, it is noted that the development of this science, as well as the techniques and methodologies it carries out, accompany the technological development and tools available to it. The use of DNA, which once began with the aim of identifying immigrants, is now used in a variety of techniques to blame or discriminate against criminal suspects. Although it is advanced and this work describes some of the techniques used by molecular biology, many others can be characterized to understand the future of this science within criminal investigation.

the social conditions of Indians as Native Americans for the treatment of white people who are immigrants from Europe in America. This research explores aspects of the reality of Indian relations with European immigrants in America that have an impact on discriminatory actions against Indians in John Steinbeck's novel The Pearl. Social facts are traced through fiction as part of the genetics of literary works. The research method used is genetic structuralism, a literary research method that traces the origin of the author's imagination in his fiction. The imagination is considered a social reality that reflects events in people's lives. The research data consist of primary data in the form of literary works, and secondary data are some references that document the background of the author's life and social reality. The results of this research indicate that racist acts as part of American social facts are documented in literary works. The situation of poor Indians and displaced people in slums is a social fact witnessed by John Steinbeck as the author of the novel The Pearl through an Indian fictional character named Kino. Racism is an act of white sentiment that discriminates against Native Americans, namely the Indian community.

The chaos that has occurred in several countries has resulted in population displacement aimed at finding new safe and conducive places to live. For example, this chaos is like war, bloody conflict, genocide, and so on. So that many people from conflict countries migrate to other countries to achieve a better standard of living. However, sometimes they do the migration without following the procedure or they are called illegal immigrants. Indonesia is one of the developing countries and transit countries where the geographical condition of Indonesia which is in the form of an archipelago makes access to and out of the country more freely and open. With this, the potential for transnational (transnational) crime increases. The potential of the Indonesian state in the occurrence of transnational crimes is an interesting matter to discuss. In this paper, the authors use normative legal research methods with qualitative data collection juxtaposed with descriptive analysis techniques so that the existing problems regarding transnational crimes can be presented comprehensively and informatively. So to deal with this problem, countries in ASEAN are demanded to be able to play an active role in taking preventive steps to prevent and minimize transnational crime in ASEAN countries and Indonesia.

This article analyses significant examples of slavery fiction published in Britain by writers who have family links to Africa and the Caribbean. As children of immigrants who had come to Britain after World War II, Caryl Phillips, David Dabydeen, Fred D’Aguiar, Andrea Levy and Bernardine Evaristo shared the uncertainties of coming of age in a society that offered no space for their identities as individuals with roots in other continents. This article reviews some of their fictions and considers them as a group in their re-creation of British involvement in the slave trade and slavery. They refocus the lens of history and present the perspectives of African enslaved and free individuals in stories of human suffering but also of agency and resistance. These fictions reconstruct the role of slavery in the British past as they write against traditional abolition-oriented narratives of the nation.

Crimes under international criminal law (icl) are complex and are necessarily committed by complex nets of perpetrators with different degrees of responsibility. Claims have been raised against icl as a mechanism overly focused on the legal fiction of an individual perpetrator, obscuring the true collective dimension of the crimes. Despite these criticisms, icl has incorporated a mechanism to address this collective dimension, at least on the side of the victims: collective reparations. However, the emerging use of collective reparations faces important challenges in an avenue based on an individual-perpetrator logic. Here, I identify current difficulties in the early practice of collective reparations in international criminal justice. These difficulties relate mainly with procedural issues and the role of the ‘adjunct mechanisms’ such as the Trust Fund for Victims (tfv). I submit that these difficulties reflect the inherent tensions present in the asymmetrical treatment of the collective dimension of the crimes

Abstract This article reexamines the political dynamic within Manila’s Parián (Chinatown) in the early eighteenth century, challenging the “conventional” paradigm of Christian Chinese monopolization of power. The centerpiece of my research focuses on a judicial case initiated by the Chinese community against Pedro Barredo, a Spanish official charged with committing a variety of sadistic crimes against Chinese merchants and their families in 1701. It also analyzes the psychological rationale undergirding Spain’s systemic racism against Chinese immigrants responsible for the colony’s economic prosperity. Utilizing unpublished documents from the Archivo General de Indias in Seville, Spain, and the National Archives of the Philippines in Manila, this new perspective fills in significant details missing from scholarly literature regarding the Chinese Overseas experience in Manila prior to 1800.

Heeding Patrick Murphy's call to critics, in his book, Ecocritical explorations in literary and cultural studies: fences, boundaries and field, to study “nature-oriented mystery novels … in order to understand the degree to which environmental consciousness and nature awareness has permeated popular and commercial fiction” (2009: 143), this article examines how highly successful author, Deon Meyer, has employed crime fiction to popularize ecological issues and debates in South Africa. In this article, Meyer's first “nature-oriented” novel, the crime thriller, Blood safari (2009), is analysed. The main question asked is whether South African crime fiction deploys ecocritical discourse for mercenary reasons or whether its engagement with environmental issues constitutes a bona fide sub-category of ecocritical literature. The same rationale – understanding how “environmental consciousness and nature awareness” manifest in one of the most popular and commercially viable genres of fiction in South Africa today – informs the broader study from which this article is drawn. Some of the findings of this study, which includes a reading of Meyer's second “nature-oriented” novel, Trackers (2011), Jane Taylor's Of wild dogs, Margaret von Klemperer's Just a dead man, and Ingrid Winterbach's literary detective novel, The book of happenstance, are referred to briefly. To conclude, the contribution of “nature-oriented” crime fiction to a “localised ecocriticism” is assessed

Resumo:

This thesis comprises a novel entitled 'Ellipsis' and an exegesis entitled 'Ellipsis: Ambiguous genre, ambiguous gender'. The novel blends archival records and fiction into two woven narratives, one contemporary, one historical. In the contemporary narrative, set in 2004-2005, Willa Samson, flayed by guilt and grieving the loss of her daughter, is a hermit, unable to work, communicating with the world mainly through the Internet. But her desire to research a fragment of local history that has haunted her for years gently forces her back into the world. Willa is convinced that in the story of a nineteenth-century murder she can see an unlikely parallel with her daughter: that, like Imogen, the victim was intersexed. The historical narrative is a speculative telling of the life of the murder victim, known as Little Jock. Imogen's story, which unfolds through Willa's memories, dramatises the devastating though well-intentioned protocol established by twentieth-century medicine for dealing with intersex births: 'normalising' surgery to fashion the newborn into the sex deemed to be appropriate, followed by hormone treatment, rigid social conditioning and an aura of secrecy to silence any confusion or hint of difference. Imogen grows up suspecting that she is different, but no one will tell her the truth. Little Jock must also keep bodily truth hidden, for in the nineteenth century intersexuals-then termed 'hermaphrodites'-were often exploited as freaks. After leaving Northern Ireland during the Potato Famine, the child who becomes Little Jock finds, in the tenement slums of Glasgow, a place to disappear. A series of petty crimes results in his transportation to Western Australia-one of the nearly ten thousand convicts plucked from English prisons and sent to the Swan River Colony. The authorities believed all of them were male. Willa's research leads her to Scotland and Northern Ireland, and finally to Western Australia's South West, helped along the way by genealogists-people who cherish the bonds of family and history. And in the search for Little Jock, she draws closer to understanding what has happened to Imogen. The exegesis, after outlining the provenance of the novel's research, is structured as two essays linked by the themes of ambiguity and classification. The first, on ambiguous genre, sets out to investigate the framing (that is, in the form of an explanatory note) of hybrid sub genres of fiction, novels that draw directly or indirectly on people, events and issues that are part of the historical record. In considering what authors should say about 'what is real and what is not,' the essay canvasses ethics and reader expectations, the right to speak and the freedom to create, and the ways books are marketed, classified and read. The second essay, on ambiguous gender, draws on historical aspects of the classification of intersexed people, along with gender theory, to consider 'Ellipsis' in terms of the social forces acting on the ambiguous bodies of Little Jock in the nineteenth century and Imogen in the twentieth century, and how these characters survive in bodies that pose a challenge to deeply held cultural norms.

This chapter tells the story of the silencing of crimes committed against Africans from international criminal law’s founding moment at Versailles in 1919. While British ‘Atrocity Blue Books’ were central to the call for criminal prosecutions of Germans after the war, the two Blue Books concerning crimes committed against Africans were inexplicably excluded from the report of the Commission on the Responsibility for the Authors of the War. This chapter explores the conditions of their erasure—both at Versailles and in the subsequent histories of the First World War and international criminal law—and considers what might happen if they were included within the fields’ dominant historical narrative. In both respects C.S. Forrester’s 1935 novel The African Queen and its myriad afterlives, in fiction, non-fiction, and film, prove a productive analogue as these texts intersect in interesting ways, both in content and form.

By the middle of the twentieth century, television had replaced literature as the principal means by which American children were acculturated. Juvenile fiction, meanwhile, became less avowedly imperial. “Empire’s nursery” partially collapsed under the weight of testimonials penned by nonwhite peoples unwilling to remain silent about the crimes committed against them in the name of US imperialism. Children’s literature increasingly avoided the subject of foreign relations as America’s global image became tarnished following the disaster in Vietnam.

Abstract Chinese businesspeople are often characterized by journalists as powerless victims frightened into silence by ruthless Chinatown gangs (Howe and Pak, 1972; Penn, 1980; Kerber and Gentile, 1982; Louttit, 1982). According to media accounts, many Chinese merchants are so often exploited by gangs that the merchants see themselves as hapless victims, and the majority not only comply with gang demands but also seem disinclined to report such demands to the police. Even those who do reach out to the police are assumed to be reluctant to testify in court out of fear of gang vengeance. Since most business owners remain silent about the crimes committed against them, it is assumed that in Chinese communities gang extortion is not only pervasive but also grudgingly tolerated. Police claim rather defensively that Chinese immigrants are unwilling to report crimes to authorities (U.S. Senate, 1992). The police believe that a substantial number of Chinese are robbed in the subways by non-Chinese, but few com plaints about these incidents reach the police. Law enforcement officials theorize that Chinese are targeted by robbers because the Chinese ethnic group has a reputation for being generally compliant and unlikely to contact authorities.

Since the 2008 election of the first African American President of the United States, Barack Obama, racial hatred has been on the rise. During the 2016 presidential election, right-wing extremist groups like the Ku Klux Klan and Ultra-Right groups have become more vocal resulting in civil rights organizations like the Southern Poverty Law Center reporting a significant rise in hate crimes and threats. Unfortunately, President Donald Trump helped to stoke the fears of these hate groups with his incendiary campaign rhetoric of hate mostly against immigrants. This chapter provides a historical overview of racial hate and its manifestation of homegrown terrorism in America. Additionally, this chapter examines how hatred and fear became the source of lynching and race riots in America from the 18th to the 21st century. Understanding the past and present history of hatred directed at racial, ethnic and gender groups can help to bring a factual and more truthful point of view that can help reduce the recurrence of homegrown terrorism.

This chapter will argue that international humanitarian law (IHL) is embedded in narratives that shape its history and meaning. Some international lawyers have argued that these narrative possibilities are necessarily constrained by a Western perspective that limits the potential of the law. Indeed, theories of narrative history consider that the possibilities of any narrative history are limited by prevailing tropes and can only relate a humanist story of ‘man’s’ encounter with the legal order. Nevertheless, alternative aesthetic and theoretical frameworks are beginning to emerge that could facilitate new ways of understanding IHL. Remembrance of Earth’s Past, a science fiction trilogy by Chinese writer Cixin Liu, provides an opportunity to explore a strikingly different vision of law, crimes against humanity, and the very notion of humanity. It suggests how narratives that draw on non-Western, non-anthropocentric ethics might underpin a distinct type of law.

Far-right supporters paint a rosy image of the luxurious lifestyle of the 1950s white middle-class families or the Southern family living in peaceful agrarian communities in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries. In each imagined society traditional white American families lead satisfying, stress-free lives, which they built through honest hard work. The traditional values they embraced offered clear guidance on how to move up in society through hard work and willpower, unburdened by people of color, asylum seekers, illegal immigrants, homeless, or other “inferior free-riders.” This American Phantasy lies at the core of the nefarious ideology that underpins white nationalism in America today and makes far-right extremists look down on non-whites with dehumanizing contempt and explode in hateful fits of rage when they don’t acknowledge their “proper place” in society. The newfound confidence of far-right extremists is partially due to the fact that the president refuses to condemn their hate crimes, but also to the ease of recruiting new members among hard-working people who tire in their struggle against the tide and young people who are increasingly likely to harbor vulnerable dark personalities, making them so thirsty for accolade that extremists specializing in ego-stroking have a good chance of recruiting them.

This chapter explores how genetic information supersedes other technologies as a biometric for migrants lacking proof of identity. It also examines the inherent privacy and societal issues of using genetic evidence as a substitute for human identity. As concerns about border security increase around the world, policymakers are turning to genetic information as a biometric for tracing individuals entering the country, processing refugee claims, and screening for human trafficking. Since many migrants travel without proof of identity, genetic information is useful for establishing identity, particularly for verifying family relationships. The United States has had the authority to collect DNA of immigrant detainees for the criminal database since 2009, in large part to detect repeat border crossers and immigrants who commit crimes in the United States. In addition, recent efforts to thwart immigration fraud and human trafficking include use of DNA relationship testing to verify claims. In the future, immigration courts might consider DNA testing for ancestral origin to verify refugees’ ethnicity claims—an approach that might help a stateless person seeking refuge to provide evidence of country of origin. Each of these expanded uses of genetic information beyond traditional criminal investigations could result in stigmatization of individuals or entire populations if applied broadly. Moreover, the geneticization of families and individuals undermines the social constructs that underlie human relations and self-identity and could lead to discrimination against nontraditional families or revelation of unintentional family secrets that could endanger individuals.

This article proposes an interdisciplinary approach to the discourses surrounding the arrival and settlement of Caribbean immigrants in London. The theoretical approach draws on the interplay between theories on migrant memory (Derrida), discourse (Foucault) and spatial literary studies (Bhabha, Moslund) to examine the role of migration in the creation of the modern multicultural, cosmopolitan city against the racism encoded in the public discourse and the migration crisis reinforced by the British press. The research objective is to investigate the confluence of media representations, life narratives and fictional depictions of Caribbean immigrants in post-war London, as well as the ensuing changes and exchanges within the urban landscape caused by the flow of immigrants, in particular by the arrival of the first generation of Commonwealth immigrants on board the Empire Windrush, which marked the inception of a multicultural London and a superimposition of the cultural and spatial arrangement of the colonizer and the colonized. In addition to the ensuing hybrid spaces of modernity, it is argued that the discursive space generates cognitive maps and geographies of memory that offer an insight into the post-World War II spatial intersections and cultural disruptions, from the �hypermnesia� (Derrida) of the immigrants to their crossing of �landguage� (Moslund) borders. The narrative design rendered through a spatial lens advances an innovative portrayal of the modern city both as a geographical location and as a set of relations anchored in a socio-political reality.
