The global threat of race in the decomposition of struggle

ABSTRACT

Many of the struggles that emerged in the wake of the 2008 global economic crisis eventually experienced decomposition in the face of multiple internal and external threats. While movement composition and decomposition are inevitable in the natural cycle of popular struggles, this article argues that what David Theo Goldberg has termed “the threat of race” constituted one important factor that brought about the eventual demise of these popular mobilizations. By drawing on the cases of US Occupy Wall Street, European anti-austerity protests, and South African struggles against xenophobia, it points to global continuity in anti-blackness across disparate geographies. As these same regions currently confront the threat of righting authoritarianism, this article argues we must also take a self-reflexive look at the seeds of reaction embedded in otherwise progressive and left-wing formations in order to achieve a more sobering account of our present predicament.     

市郊结合部地区街面治安防控的思考

街面案件主要是指发生在街面和道路上的抢劫、抢夺、诈骗、盗窃等案件。当前,市郊结合部地区街面案件多发,为此,必须明确治安防控的责任主体,强化街面案件的预警机制,强化侦防巡诸警联动、责任捆绑机制,采取针对性的防范措施,公密结合,因地制宜,切实加大对街面犯罪的打击力度。     

浅谈街面犯罪防控机制

近些年来,以"两抢一盗"为主的街面犯罪仍然十分猖獗。因此,必须引起公安机关乃至全社会的高度重视,应建立防控街面犯罪的六种机制。即:建立外来人口和出租房屋的管理机制;建立以快制快、专门打击街面犯罪的集约化队伍新机制;建立以科技信息为支撑的监控机制;建立民众积极参与的群防机制;建立集中整治与常态管理的工作机制;建立标本相结合的综合整治机制。     

对当前新疆反恐怖斗争的认识及对策思考

“三股势力”为实现分裂祖国的罪恶目的,打着“民族”、“宗教”、“人权”等旗号,在境内外实施恐怖破坏活动。公安机关在打击对策上应继续坚持“严打高压”态势;完善反恐怖预案;建立打击“三股势力”有效机制;加强国际合作;制定和完善反恐怖的相关法规。     

把握街面治安顽点 立足街面治安防控

街面治安顽点的形成受各种因素的影响.治安顽点防控的三原则是防范在先原则、区域联防原则和以动制动原则.根据街面治安顽点的成因和防控原则,可制定出五大防控对策.

Analysis of the autopsy,toxicological, and psychiatric reports of Portugal’s first major forensic case: part III

This work presents an odd historical record obtained through more than 14 years of research regarding one of the first major European forensic cases. The presumed homicide of Mário Guilherme Augusto de Sampaio in 1890 was allegedly perpetrated by his uncle, the prestigious doctor Vicente Urbino de Freitas. This famous poisoning had international repercussions for decades, with the participation of several forensic experts that made the history of forensic sciences, namely forensic toxicology and pathology. This third work aims to collect, restore, and analyse all the forensic evidence, particularly from the autopsy, toxicological, and psychiatric forensic reports. Facts regarding the life of Vicente Urbino de Freitas during his exile in Brazil were also recovered, along with a vast and outstanding assortment of forensic medicine photographs from the 19th century.     

Youth Homelessness and Social Stigma

Building upon previous exploratory qualitative research (Kidd SA (2003) Child Adol Social Work J 20(4):235–261), this paper examines the mental health implications of social stigma as it is experienced by homeless youth. Surveys conducted with 208 youths on the streets and in agencies in New York City and Toronto revealed significant associations between perceived stigma due to homeless status and sexual orientation, pan handling and sex trade involvement, and amount of time homeless. Higher perceived stigma was also related to low self esteem, loneliness, feeling trapped, and suicidal ideation, with guilt/self-blame due to homeless status having the strongest impact on mental health variables. Sean Kidd is an assistant professor with the McMaster Department of Psychiary and Behavioural Neurociences. He received his Ph.D. in clinical psychology from the University of Windsor, Ontario, in 2003. His primary research areas are suicide and resiliency among homeless youth and the application of qualitative methodologies in psychological research.
