Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. A timely analysis of Australia's response to the pandemic, which asks what have we learned?Donald Horne famously called Australia 'the lucky country'. So how did we become the locked-up country and how might the future look different?Australia has changed enormously since Horne's 1960s, but its response to the COVID-19 pandemic demonstrates the enduring truth of his thesis that our 'luck' was undeserved and wouldn't last. By closing its borders and imposing a nationally coordinated lockdown, Australia unexpectedly eliminated COVID-19 in 2020, achieving one of the world's lowest excess mortality rates.But as governments proceeded to bungle key planks of the pandemic response, by mid-2021, Australia was 'locked up' - closed off to the world and fragmented along state and territory borders, with its major cities enduring repeated and extended lockdowns. It soon became clear that Australia's regulatory state had let us down. But these failures were not inevitable, and we can manage future crises more successfully.In The Locked-up Country, political experts Tom Chodor and Shahar Hameiri identify the source of Australia's recent challenges and suggest a better way forward. A timely analysis of Australia's response to the pandemic, which asks what have we learned? Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.…

Paperback. Condition: New. Unraveling the Crime-Development Nexus interrogates the claim that crime represents a significant threat to economic development. Combining historical analysis with a unique empirical perspective based on interviews with high-level international crime policy insiders, it accounts for how and why the 'crime-development nexus' has been invoked by international actors, including the United Nations, to advance and secure variations of a global capitalist development agenda since the 19th Century.Drawing on perspectives anchored in critical criminology, International Relations, and development studies, Unraveling the Crime Development Nexus reveals that the international crime policy agenda today remains overwhelmingly responsive to those who benefit from the further expansion of neoliberal globalisation, while simultaneously marginalising subordinate actors throughout the 'developing' world. The book concludes by considering how international organisations, civil society actors, and major donors might support a more equitable and sustainable model of global crime governance that addresses the structural causes of crime and uneven development at a global level.…
