Описание: Social Problems: Societal Crisis, Capitalism, and Democracy is an anthology that offers students a variety of readings on prominent social problems. The selections feature perspectives from those who have contributed to modern social problems, as well as those who have no power over shaping them. In doing so, the text demonstrates that social problems are two-fold, benefiting some while creating obstacles for others.The selected articles, rigorously analyzed, help identify social problems, social inequalities, institutionalized inequalities, social and physical exploitation, the neglected, and violence and terrorism, not only in the U.S., but worldwide. Students are exposed to important discussions on social movement theories, how financial inequality is negatively affecting the world, and how individuals can get involved to correct the world’s social problems. Social Problems introduces students to a variety of perspectives to provide them with a holistic understanding of pre- and postmodern societal challenges. The text is ideal for undergraduate courses in sociology and anthropology, as well as classes in cognate fields such as policy and political science.

Описание: As a study of Hungary, the author`s book is one of the small but growing number of analyses of Eastern Europe and the Soviet Union which avoid denunciamentos and apologetics. It is a sympathetically critical account (as she says `In social science, there is no neutral act`) from which much can be learned.

This Brief presents new approaches and innovative challenges to address bringing technology into community-oriented policing efforts. "Community-oriented policing" is an approach that encourages police to develop and maintain personal relationships with citizens and community organizations. By developing these partnerships, the goal is to enhance trust and legitimacy of police by the community (and vice versa), and focus on engaging the community crime prevention and detection efforts for sustainable, long-term crime reduction.
The contributions to this volume emphasize the societal implications of new technologies for community-oriented policing goals, such as:
-Strengthening community policing principles through strengthed community feeling and lower feeling of insecurity
- Reducing the fear of crime and enhancing the perception of security in large, urban environments
-Enhancing citizens feelings' of empowerment, belonging, and collective efficacy
Contributions to this volume were developed out of the Next Generation Community Policing (NGCP) International Conference was co-organized by nine contributing research and development projects, funded by the Horizon 2020 SECURITY Program of the European Commission. It will be of interest to researchers in criminology and criminal justice, as well as related fields such as sociology, public health, security, IT and public policy.

Описание: This book elaborates on the distinction between societal innovation and social innovation. It provides eight case studies to illustrate the scope, process, outcome, and impact of societal innovation and social innovation. In addition, the book proposes a model for interested parties to maximize their contribution for the common social good in a systematic and effective way. Case studies are used to illustrate concepts for readers to grasp the real essence of the relatively abstract notions of societal innovation and social innovation. In doing so, the book shows how small efforts can bring big benefits for the under privileged and to society as a whole. This book serves as a helpful resource for government officials, social innovation practitioners, social entrepreneurs, Non Profit Organizations, as well as students who would like to contribute to the common social good.
