This edited book explores prison masculinities, drawing from a wide range of international researchers to highlight how masculinities may divert from the ""hypermasculine"" or macho typology typically found in the prison masculinities literature. The book includes a diverse selection of writing on masculinities ""in"" and ""of"" prison; masculinities experienced by those living within, working, and experiencing prison as well as historical and critical accounts of masculinities from around the world. The contributors highlight how masculinities are experienced in a multitude of ways as is evidenced in both qualitative and quantitative research with men before, during, and after imprisonment; with correctional officers and staff; in the analysis of public records, in the critical examination of Sykes' seminal work; and in historical and contemporary Australian society. Evidenced in writing drawn from Australia, the Dominican Republic, Ukraine, Hong Kong, the United States, Scotland, and the Netherlands, the contributors acknowledge that rather than being fixed, discourses around prison masculinities now include sexuality, gender identity, and diverse understandings around masculinities as strategic, hegemonic, and ever changing. Prison Masculinities is important reading for students and scholars across disciplines, including criminology, sociology, gender studies, law, international relations, history, health, psychology, and education

Technology is quickly becoming an integral part of care systems across the world and is frequently cited in policy discourse as pivotal for solving the 'crisis' in care and delivering positive outcomes. Exploring the role of technology in Europe, Canada, Australia and Japan, this book examines how technology contributes effectively to the sustainability of these different care systems, which are facing similar emergent pressures, including increased longevity, falling fertility and the consequences of the COVID-19 pandemic. It considers the challenges and opportunities of embedding technologies in care systems and the subsequent outcomes for older and disabled service users, carers and the care workforce

Arbitrajul privat voluntar nu mai este o metoda alternativa de solutionare a litigiilor. Acesta a devenit o metoda uzuala de solutionare a disputelor, o mentalitate de interpretare a textelor legale si, poate, un mod de viata. La prima vedere, lucrarea are un caracter exclusiv juridic. Resorturile scrierii acestei lucrari nu au fost numai juridice. De altfel, a scrie despre arbitrajul privat voluntar numai din perspectiva juridica echivaleaza cu neîntelegerea finalitatii acestuia. Solutionarea litigiului arbitral nu este un mestesug, ci este si devine permanent o arta. Aceasta din urma perspectiva a constituit adevaratul resort al scrierii prezentei lucrari. Elementul de noutate al lucrarii îl constituie analiza pragmatica, dar livresca si, totodata,exclusiva a textelor procesual-civile romane referitoare la arbitrajul privat voluntar.
