Gendered Responses to Male Offending in Barbados

Patriarchal Perceptions and Their Effect on Offender Treatment

By: Corin Bailey

It is generally accepted that men commit more crimes than women. The widespread acceptance of this view is based primarily on the number of convictions with most jurisdictions reporting considerably fewer incarcerated women/girls than men/boys. This manuscript argues however that decisions made by the various stakeholders that play a role in the incarceration of men are inherently gendered. These decisions are based on patriarchal perceptions and stereotypes related to the familial roles of men and women, and by extension their motivations or offending. Few studies have sought to explore the nature of these perceptions, and the effect these may have on incarceration patterns. Indeed, this form of inquiry remains absent from the research agenda of Caribbean criminologists. Using qualitative data from Barbados, this book analyses the extent to which these factors are taken into consideration not only by the police and members of the judiciary, but by examining the gendered decisions made by shop managers and proprietors in cases involving shoplifting, it seeks to analyse the extent to which these factors are taken into consideration before incidents reach the justice system. Critically, this book seeks also to juxtapose these assumptions against testimony from men incarcerated at Her Majesty’s Prison. The large proportion of males in Caribbean prisons when compared to their female counterparts necessitates an investigation into the factors that may contribute to differential treatment as they move through the justice system. Using data from Barbados, the present study seeks to fill this need.

Polygamy in the Monogamous World

Multicultural Challenges for Western Law and Policy

By: Martha Bailey,Amy J. Kaufman

This fact-filled book on polygamy and plural unions around the world supports an in-depth consideration of policy options for Western countries. Polygamy and plural marriage have become front-and-center issues in Europe, Canada, and the United States, notably on two religious fronts: among some splinter groups of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints and in Islam. Polygamy in the Monogamous World: Multicultural Challenges for Western Law and Policy takes both groups into account as it provides a careful examination of legal polygamy in non-Western countries and plural unions in North America. Comparing these similar, but legally distinct forms of union, it offers a fresh perspective on how Western countries should respond to these relationships. Specifically, the book surveys non-Western countries where polygamy is legally practiced, then provides an overview of plural unions in North America. The problems of polygamy and plural unions are examined, including the potential for tne abuse of wives. The responses of Western governments to such relationships are reviewed, and the most effective solutions are identified to ascertain what policies should be adopted going forward.

The Inducer

By: Bishop James C. Bailey, PhD

THE INDUCER is a Christian / Science Fiction, Parabolic Story, inspired by the word of God and the actions or lack thereof of persons who read the word, or have exposure to the word of God, but perform as if evil is the powerful and ultimate alternate. There are persons who use the power of their minds to desire and wish failure and death upon others. Some have, in their self-righteousness and egotistical pride, set themselves above others based on some remarkable accomplishment or acquired status. Reality is that eternity cannot be bribed or purchased. It brings class and status, rich and poor together through a common medium called, death, and through a common portal, called, the grave. THE INDUCER is not that evil one, but is cast as an emotionless, paranormal character that uses the channels of the human mind to access and control the soul of evil concocting individuals. His purpose is to alter or expedite the wicked thinker's desires to a conclusion; whether good or bad.

Bioassessment of Freshwater Ecosystems

Using the Reference Condition Approach

By: Robert Converse Bailey,Richard H. Norris,Trefor B. Reynoldson

Quantifying the effect(s) of human-induced changes on aquatic ecosystems is a fundamental objective in ecological assessment, and one that often requires the use of a reference condition. Because of the widespread degradation of many aquatic ecosystems, finding pristine or even minimally disturbed reference sites can be a challenging (read frustrating) and costly endeavour. This book gives a comprehensive description of present-day concepts and practices in working with the use of references in quantifying departures from conditions expected with no or only minimal anthropogenic effects.

The Blood Throughout the 7 Dispensations

The Blood Throughout the 7 Dispensations

By: Bishop James C. Bailey

Clearly something is dreadfully wrong with our society when we compare the inner societal performances against the documented foundational biblical principles on which our nation is purportedly built. It is not just a national problem we face, rather an international crisis due to the absence of understanding of what spiritual repercussions await us for the lack of performance to Gods dictates. We are distracted and sidelined by childish malice over skin color, races, and a stockpile of other nonessentials, as in essence, the angels of God gradually push shut the great stone hinged door of time allotted us to establish true God fearing relationships, in the final hour of this 6th dispensation. God used one blood, His blood in the creation of man upon the face of the earth. The dominion and power of Gods human creatures were bestowed upon and within man by the blessing of the Creator. Mans failure in lack of obedience to God imposed a chronological timeframe upon humankind that was already operating in the reproductive realm, from initiation of pregnancy to full term for birth, but would now directly impact the lifespan of humans, and sub-species, from birth to death. The life of every God conscious creature is in the blood: a transfusable, non-transmutable, generation transcending, God breathed biomaterial. A goodly portion of the God conscious segment of society is visually aware, but functionally asleep. God, who has given us dominion, has also given us time to get our domain in order, to His specifications: in fact He has given us six allotments, or dispensations of time, wherein we have control, to do so. The Lord will attend and manage personally the 7th dispensation, in His vesture dipped in blood. Gods blood has its role throughout all of the 7 dispensations.

Bioassessment of Freshwater Ecosystems

Using the Reference Condition Approach

By: Robert C. Bailey,Richard H. Norris,Trefor B. Reynoldson

Aquatic ecosystem assessment is a rapidly developing field, and one of the newer approaches to assessing the condition of rivers and lakes is the Reference Condition Approach. This is a significant advancement in biomonitoring because it solves the problem of trying to locate nearby control or reference sites when studying an ecosystem that may be degraded, a problem that bedevils traditional approaches. Rather than using upstream reference sites in a river system or next-bay-over reference sites in a lake, an array of ecologically similar, least-exposed to stress sites scattered throughout a catchment or region is used. Once the reference condition has been established, any site suspected of being impacted can be assessed by comparison to the reference sites, and its status determined. The Reference Condition database, once formed, can be used repeatedly.

Popular Culture and Performance in the Victorian City

By: Peter Bailey

This lively and highly innovative book reconstructs the texture and meaning of popular pleasure in the Victorian entertainment industry. Integrating theories of language and social action with close reading of contemporary sources, Peter Bailey provides a richly detailed study of the pub, music-hall, theatre and comic newspaper. Analysis of the interplay between entrepreneurs, performers, social critics and audience reveals distinctive codes of humour, sociability and glamour that constituted a new populist ideology of consumerism and the good time. Bailey shows how the new leisure world offered a repertoire of roles that enabled its audience to negotiate the unsettling encounters of urban life. Bailey offers challenging interpretations of respectability, sexuality, and the cultural politics of class and gender in a distinctive, personal voice.

Chapman's Odyssey

By: Paul Bailey

Harry Chapman is not well, and he doesn't like hospitals. Furthermore, Dr Pereira's wonder drug is causing some strange side effects: he can hear more than the usual quotient of voices. First, it is his mother, acerbic and disappointed in him as ever, but then more and more voices add their differing notes and stories to the chorus, squabbling, cajoling and commenting. Friends from childhood, lovers, characters from novels and poetry, Virginia Woolf and a man who wants to sell him T.S Eliot's teeth. Written with a gentle, effortless generosity, full of delicate observation, Chapman's Odyssey is the work of a master; a superbly rendered act of storytelling and ventriloquism that is both witty and deeply moving.

Do you remember what year Princess Diana died in that car crash in Paris? How many husbands did Elizabeth Taylor divorce in her lifetime? What was that well known British actor who passed away right after David Bowie died? Questions you might hear at the next table of your favourite eatery. Questions you may or may not know the answer to. They Died on My Watch can answer these and many more. It is a comprehensive reference work that should prove itself indispensable to any household.
