The Future of Correctional Rehabilitation Moving Beyond the RNR Model and Good Lives Model Debate

The Future of Correctional Rehabilitation Moving Beyond the RNR Model and Good Lives Model Debate

In the aftermath of Martinson’s 1974 nothing works doctrine scholars have made a concerted effort to develop an evidence-based corrections theory and practice to show what works to change offenders. Perhaps the most important contribution to this effort was made by a group of Canadian psychologists most notably Donald Andrews James Bonta and Paul Gendreau who developed a treatment paradigm called the Risk-Need-Responsivity (RNR) model which became the dominant theory of correctional treatment. This approach was more recently challenged by a perspective developed by Tony Ward Shadd Maruna and others called the Good Lives Model (GLM). Based in part on desistance research and positive psychology this model proposes to rehabilitate offenders by building on the strengths offenders possess. GLM proponents see the RNR model as a deficit model that fixes dynamic risk factors rather than identifying what offenders value most and using these positive factors to pull them out of crime. Through a detailed examination of both models’ theoretical and correctional frameworks The Future of Correctional Rehabilitation: Moving Beyond the RNR Model and Good Lives Model Debate probes the extent to which the models offer incompatible or compatible approaches to offender treatment and suggests how to integrate the RNR and GLM approaches to build a new and hopefully more effective vision for offender treatment. A foreword by renowned criminologist Francis T. Cullen helps put the material into context. This book will be of much interest to scholars and students studying correctional rehabilitation as well as practitioners working with offenders. | The Future of Correctional Rehabilitation Moving Beyond the RNR Model and Good Lives Model Debate

He uses a Five Sector Model which focuses on the state corporate financial labour and foreign sectors to identify the core of East Asian model and examine the variants in Korea Japan and China. He also outlines the distinctions between the East Asian model and Western development models including the Anglo-American Rhine and Nordic models.

Legal Ethics for Lawyers A New Model

Legal Ethics for Lawyers A New Model

This book proposes a new model of professional ethics enabling lawyers to advise clients upon both the law and ethics. This will better protect clients and society and enhance lawyers’ professional obligations. The current model of legal ethics developed in the 19th century specified that the role of lawyers was only to interpret the law not also to give ethical advice. This was acceptable to lawyers clients and society at that time. However this is not the case now and legal ethics no longer reflects the needs of modern legal practice. This book draws on moral philosophy to present a new model of legal ethics that explains the analytical process to include ethical advice. It analyses the potential harm of the present model to the legal profession who have duties to the law and justice that may compete with demands by clients to serve them. Further lawyers’ duty to clients to act in their best interests is sometimes not adequately fulfilled as legal ethics does not permit lawyers to give ethical advice even if it may be in clients’ best interests to do so. The work includes a detailed case study of corporate law practice to show why a new legal ethics is required. Other case examples are provided to demonstrate that lawyers practicing in all areas of law encounter ethical issues and they too will benefit from a new legal ethics. The book will be essential reading for students academics lawyers and professional bodies. | Legal Ethics for Lawyers A New Model

A Kryptic Model of the Incarnation

A Kryptic Model of the Incarnation

The Incarnation traditionally understood as the metaphysical union between true divinity and true humanity in the one person of Jesus Christ is one of the central doctrines for Christians over the centuries. Nevertheless many scholars have objected that the Scriptural account of the Incarnation is incoherent. Being divine seems to entail being omniscient omnipotent and omnipresent but the New Testament portrays Jesus as having human properties such as being apparently limited in knowledge power and presence. It seems logically impossible that any single individual could possess such mutually exclusive sets of properties and this leads to scepticism concerning the occurrence of the Incarnation in history. A Kryptic Model of the Incarnation aims to provide a critical reflection of various attempts to answer these challenges and to offer a compelling response integrating aspects from analytic philosophy of religion systematic theology and historical-critical studies. Loke develops a new Kryptic model of the Incarnation drawing from the Greek word Krypsis meaning ’hiding’ and proposing that in a certain sense Christ’s supernatural properties were concealed during the Incarnation.

Treating Trauma and Addiction with the Felt Sense Polyvagal Model A Bottom-Up Approach

Treating Trauma and Addiction with the Felt Sense Polyvagal Model A Bottom-Up Approach

In sharp contrast with the current top-down medicalized method to treating addiction this book presents the felt sense polyvagal model (FSPM) a paradigm-shifting bottom-up approach that considers addiction as an adaptive attempt to regulate emotional states and trauma. The felt sense polyvagal model draws from Porges' polyvagal theory Gendelin's felt sense and Lewis' learning model of addiction to offer a graphically illustrated and deeply embodied way of conceptualizing and treating addiction through supporting autonomic regulation. This model de-pathologizes addiction as it teaches embodied practices through tapping into the felt sense the body’s inner wisdom. Chapters first present a theoretical framework and demonstrate the graphic model in both clinician and client versions and then teach the clinician how to use the model in practice by providing detailed treatment strategies. This text’s informed compassionate approach to understanding and treating trauma and addiction is adaptable to any school of psychotherapy and will appeal to addiction experts trauma specialists and clinicians in all mental health fields. | Treating Trauma and Addiction with the Felt Sense Polyvagal Model A Bottom-Up Approach

Intellectual Disability and Being Human A Care Ethics Model

Intellectual Disability and Being Human A Care Ethics Model

Intellectual disability is often overlooked within mainstream disability studies and theories developed about disability and physical impairment may not always be appropriate when thinking about intellectual (or learning) disability. This pioneering book in considering intellectually disabled people's lives sets out a care ethics model of disability that outlines the emotional caring sphere where love and care are psycho-socially questioned the practical caring sphere where day-to-day care is carried out and the socio-political caring sphere where social intolerance and aversion to difficult differences are addressed. It does so by discussing issue-based everyday life such as family relationships media representations and education in an evocative and creative manner. This book draws from an understanding of how intellectual disability is represented in all forms of media a feminist ethics of care and capabilities as well as other theories to provide a critique and alternative to the social model of disability as well as illuminate care-less spaces that inhabit all the caring spheres. The first two chapters of the book provide an overview of intellectual disability the debates surrounding disability and outline the model. Having begun to develop an innovative theoretical framework for understanding intellectual disability and being human the book then moves onto empirical and narrative driven issue-based chapters. The following chapters build on the emergent framework and discuss the application of particular theories in three different substantive areas: education mothering and sexual politics. The concluding remarks draw together the common themes across the applied chapters and link them to the overarching theoretical framework. An important read for all those studying and researching intellectual or learning disability this book will be an essential resource in sociology philosophy criminology (law) social work education and nursing in particular. | Intellectual Disability and Being Human A Care Ethics Model
