Feminist criminology in an era of misogyny†

In this address I make the case for continuing to focus criminological research on gender, sexism, and racism within our lives and within our profession. I also provide a brief case study of a topic many would feel falls well outside our field: reproductive rights. Data are reviewed to reveal the impact of gender on the lives of women—notably the devaluation of work done by women, particularly if the work is deemed feminist. Afterward, recent data on the persistence of both sexism and racism in our field are reviewed. Despite gains made by women (notably in the membership of the field), the highest positions in our professional association are held by men, particularly by White men. Data on the importance of reproductive rights to women are then considered, notably the fact that nearly one third of women will need abortion services by the time they reach middle age. Finally, I review recent efforts by conservatives to recriminalize abortion, specifically through the passage of laws making abortion difficult to arrange, or even outlawing the provision of abortion services. These efforts directly involve the criminal justice system in the criminalization of women's bodies.

Exploring sexual harassment and related attitudes in Beninese high schools: a field study

Sexual harassment severely impacts the educational system in the West African country Benin and the progress of women in this society that is characterized by great gender inequality. Knowledge of the belief systems rooting in the sociocultural context is crucial to the understanding of sexual harassment. However, no study has yet investigated how sexual harassment is related to fundamental beliefs in Benin or West African countries. We conducted a field study on 265 female and male students from several high schools in Benin to investigate the link between sexual harassment and measures of ambivalent sexism, gender identity, and rape myth acceptance. Almost half of the sample reported having experienced sexual harassment personally or among peers. Levels of sexism and rape myth acceptance were very high compared to other studies. These attitudes appeared to converge in a sexist belief system that was linked to personal experiences, the perceived probability of experiencing and fear of sexual harassment. Results suggest that sexual harassment is a societal problem and that interventions need to address fundamental attitudes held in societies low in gender equality.     

The Friendly Media Phenomenon: A Cross-National Analysis of Cross-Cutting Exposure

We hypothesize that in the real world, as opposed to the lab, the norm is for people to experience friendly media that favor their political predispositions when political favoritism is perceived at all. For this reason, media are generally limited in their ability to create cross-cutting exposure. We test this hypothesis using representative survey data drawn from 11 different countries with varying media systems. We further hypothesize that television will contribute more to cross-cutting exposure than newspapers. Finally, and most importantly, we test the hypothesis that the more the structure of a country's media system parallels that of its political parties, the more that country's population will be dominated by exposure to like-minded views via mass media. We find confirmation for all 3 of these hypotheses and discuss their implications for the role of mass media in providing exposure to cross-cutting political perspectives.     

Relational Victimization,Callous-Unemotional Traits,and Hostile Attribution Bias Among Preadolescents

The aim of this study was to investigate the association of callous-unemotional traits, hostile attribution bias, and relational victimization experiences among 228 Greek preadolescent students attending the last two primary school grades. No significant gender differences were found. Correlations showed positive associations among relational victimization, callous-unemotional traits, and hostile attribution bias. Multiple regression indicated that preadolescents with high callous and unemotional traits and hostile attribution bias who experienced physical aggression were more likely to be relationally victimized. Results emphasize the role of both personal and social-cognitive factors in relational victimization, and are discussed in terms of their practical implications.     

抵御宗教渗透是稳定发展的关键

在现阶段,利用宗教进行政治渗透和思想渗透是西方敌对势力对我国实施"西化"、"分化"、"和平演变"政治图谋的重要方式和手段.我们要认清西方敌对势力利用宗教渗透搞分裂活动的本质,支持宗教界坚持独立自主、自办教会的方针,坚决抵制境外敌对势力利用宗教进行政治渗透和思想渗透.这是做好宗教工作的中心任务.     

敌对势力利用境外非政府组织渗透活动及其对策 ——以公安网络监管为视角

西方敌对势力利用境外非政府组织谋求政治利益,将网络作为渗透破坏我国的平台;积极开发互联网新技术,以"网络无国界"为由,改变着网络意识,抨击主流网络文化;纠集境外非政府组织炒作热点敏感问题,并以"维权"相号召,不断进行攻击污蔑、造谣生事,煽动民众同党和政府产生对立情绪;线上培养意见领袖,支持、参与、策划街头政治、民族分裂等活动,试图破坏我国社会稳定和国家安全。网络渗透和反渗透斗争中的胜利,决定了我国未来网络空间主权。公安机关在应对以境外非政府组织为媒介的网络渗透过程中也暴露出手段、技术上的瑕疵。针对这些问题,公安机关应当顺应信息化警务发展,弥补部门情报系统、舆情监测、网络设备、技术人才等不足,细化公安机关职责,加大对境外非政府组织的监管力度,防范和抵御西方敌对势力借助境外非政府组织对我国策动"颜色革命"的图谋。     

论恶意诉讼

近年来,恶意诉讼案件在我国一直呈上升趋势。该现象的出现是由某些人道德素质低下、诉讼不可避免的负面效应以及法律制度的内在缺陷等几方面原因所致。参酌域外相关的立法例,在分析现有相关法律的局限之后,总结了区分恶意诉讼与一般诉讼的识别标准,并提出了规制我国恶意诉讼的立法建议。     

Evaluating Stranger and Acquaintance Rape: The Role of Benevolent Sexism in Perpetrator Blame and Recommended Sentence Length

In most jurisdictions, the law does not recognize the distinction between stranger and acquaintance rape. However, these two types of rape seem to elicit different responses from both lay observers and legal practitioners. Two studies investigating the role of benevolent sexism (BS) in accounting for participants' responses to acquaintance vs. stranger rape perpetrators are reported. Participants were presented with vignettes describing either an acquaintance rape or a stranger rape. As predicted, relative to low-BS individuals, participants who scored high in BS attributed less blame (Study 1) and recommended shorter sentences (Study 2) for the acquaintance rape perpetrator. Benevolent sexism was unrelated to reactions to the perpetrator in the stranger rape condition.
