The Routledge International Handbook on Decolonizing Justice focuses on the growing worldwide movement aimed at decolonizing state policies and practices, and various disciplinary knowledges including criminology, social work and law. The collection of original chapters brings together cutting-edge, politically engaged work from a diverse group of writers who take as a starting point an analysis founded in a decolonizing, decolonial and/or Indigenous standpoint. Centering the perspectives of Black, First Nations and other racialized and minoritized peoples, the book makes an internationally significant contribution to the literature. The chapters include analyses of specific decolonization policies and interventions instigated by communities to enhance jurisdictional self-determination; theoretical approaches to decolonization; the importance of research and research ethics as a key foundation of the decolonization process; crucial contemporary issues including deaths in custody, state crime, reparations, and transitional justice; and critical analysis of key institutions of control, including police, courts, corrections, child protection systems and other forms of carcerality. The handbook is divided into five sections which reflect the breadth of the decolonizing literature: • Why decolonization? From the personal to the global • State terror and violence • Abolishing the carceral • Transforming and decolonizing justice • Disrupting epistemic violence This book offers a comprehensive and timely resource for activists, students, academics, and those with an interest in Indigenous studies, decolonial and post-colonial studies, criminal legal institutions and criminology. It provides critical commentary and analyses of the major issues for enhancing social justice internationally.

An Introduction to Sociological Criminology

Crime, Deviance and Society

Have you ever wished that you had a play book or manual for being a stepparent? I know I have! I am a Bonus Momma to two incredible Bonus Kids that I absolutely love and adore. We have an amazing relationship, but it was not always easy, and it took a lot of time to build. Early on I wished that they came with a book, a step-by-step guide if you will. A Rule Book of what "to do" and what "not to do" in a blended family. What I really wanted to know was what is expected from us "Evil Wicked Step Moms". After many years of struggles, making mistakes and building the relationships I wanted with my Bonus Kids, I decided that I wanted to help. My hope is to help other Bonus Mommas figure everything out a little faster than I did and maybe avoid some mistakes I made. In this book you will find some helpful tips on making the situation the best you can. You will learn to control the things you can and let go of the things you can't. Each chapter will go over a topic that I struggled with or a topic that a lot of Bonus Moms have shared that they really had a hard time navigating. Most of all, I want to tell you that you shouldn't be too hard on yourself. You are already doing great by simply trying to learn more and do better!
