Gendered Justice: Women, Trauma and Crime - Lucy Baldwin

Descriere Gendered Justice: Women, Trauma and Crime - Lucy Baldwin

\nGendered Justice seeks to enhance knowledge and practice in relation to criminalised women and anyone affected by their imprisonment. It calls for compassionate trauma-informed, and gender-specific approaches. As editor Dr Lucy Baldwin explains, 'How society engages with women coming into contact with the Criminal Justice System can have a profound and lasting effect on their lives, so it is important to ensure that the impact is an informed and positive one'.\n \nIn chapters by experts from diverse backgrounds, the book examines a carefully selected mix of developments including in topical areas such as women's rights, help and support, stigma, domestic abuse, sentencing, racism, disadvantage, poverty, deviance, labelling, homelessness, stereotyping, missed opportunities, silencing, fairness, prison visits, desistance from crime, unmet needs, and making a difference.\n \n \n\n
