- Description
- The media has a big influence on the atmosphere in the courtroom, even on the verdict. A research at the Mainz University shows that 9 out of ten lawyers are convinced of that. Gisella Friedrichsen, court reporter from the German magazine 'Der Spiegel', plays a big rol in this. In this Dossier the focus is on two court cases: one concerning honor killings and one about childabuse.

- Description
- The late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries were a revolutionary period in the lives of women, and the shifting perceptions of women and their role in society were equally apparent in the courtroom. This book examines eighteen cases of women on trial for murder from 1870 to 1958. The details of these murder trials, documented in court records and embellished newspaper coverage, mirrored the changing public image of women. Although murder was clearly outside the norm for standard female behavior, most women and their attorneys relied on gendered stereotypes and language to create their defense and sometimes to leverage their status in a patriarchal system. Those who could successfully dress and act the part of the victim were most often able to win the sympathies of the jury. Gender mattered. And though the norms shifted over time, the press, attorneys, and juries were all informed by contemporary gender stereotypes.

- Description
- Abortionhas always been an arena for contesting power relations between women and men. When in 1973 the Supreme Court made the procedure legal throughout the United States, it seemed that women were at last able to make decisions about their own bodies. In the four decades that followed abortion became ever more politicized and stigmatized. This book analyzes what the legal status and political environment have meant for abortion providers and their patients. Schoen sheds light on the experience of performing and receiving abortion care from the 1970s to the rise of the antiabortion movement and the escalation of antiabortion tactics in the 1980s to the 1990s and beyond, when violent attacks on clinics and abortion providers led to a new articulation of abortion care as moral work.

- Description
- Despite the many changes there have been to the law, practice and procedure in the investigation of rape allegations, and support available for victims, victims are still often blamed for their victimization. Only a very small number of perpetrators ever face prosecution, let alone conviction. This book aims to take stock of current thinking and research about rape and the way it is handled in practice within the criminal justice system, and to challenge some of the widely held but inaccurate beliefs about rape. The main focus of the book is on adult victims of rape, with chapters exploring such issues as rape and the media, the use of alcohol and drugs in rape, police decision making on rape cases, conviction patterns in rape trials, and interviewing victims of rape and sexual assault.
