Digital Technology and Justice : Justice Apps
Justice apps – mobile and web-based programmes that can assist individuals with legal tasks – are being produced, improved, and accessed at an unprecedented rate.These technologies have the potential to reshape the justice system, improve access to justice, and demystify legal institutions.Using artificial intelligence techniques, apps can even facilitate the resolution of common legal disputes.However, these opportunities must be assessed in light of the many challenges associated with app use in the justice sector.These include the digital divide and other accessibility issues; the ethical challenges raised by the dehumanisation of legal processes; and various privacy, security, and confidentiality risks.Surveying the landscape of this emergent industry, this book explores the objectives, opportunities, and challenges presented by apps across all areas of the justice sector.Detailed consideration is also given to the use of justice apps in specific legal contexts, including the family law and criminal law sectors.The first book to engage with justice apps, this book will appeal to a wide range of legal scholars, students, practitioners, and policy-makers.

Research Methods for Social Justice and Equity in Education
Research Methods for Social Justice and Equity in Education offers researchers a full understanding of very important concepts, showing how they can be used a means to develop practical strategies for undertaking research that makes a difference to the lives of marginalised and disadvantaged learners.It explores different conceptualisations of social justice and equity, and leads the reader through a discussion of what their implications are for undertaking educational research that is both moral and ethical and how it can be enacted in the context of their chosen research method and a variety of others, both well-known and more innovative. The authors draw on real, practical examples from a range of educational contexts, including early childhood, special and inclusive education and adult education, and cultures located in both western and developing nations in order to exemplify how researchers can use methods which contribute to the creation of more equitable education systems.In this way, the authors provide a global perspective of the contrasting and creative ways in which researchers reflect on and integrate principles of social justice in their methods and their methodological decision making. It encourages the reader to think critically about their own research by asking key questions, such as: what contribution can research for equity and social justice make to new and emerging methods and methodologies? And how can researchers implement socially just research methods from a position of power?This book concludes by proposing a range of methods and methodologies which researchers can use to challenge inequality and work towards social justice, offering a springboard from which they can further their own studies.

'Revenge or Justice?'
Revenge is driven by a desire to inflict harm or suffering on someone in response to a perceived wrongdoing, often without consideration for fairness or due process. Justice, on the other hand, is about restoring balance and fairness by holding individuals accountable for their actions through a fair and impartial legal process. While revenge may provide temporary satisfaction, it often perpetuates a cycle of harm and does not address the root causes of the conflict. Justice, on the other hand, seeks to address the underlying issues and promote healing and reconciliation. Ultimately, justice is a more sustainable and constructive approach to resolving conflicts and addressing wrongdoing.

Gender Justice, Education and Equality : Creating Capabilities for Girls' and Women's Development
This book reframes gender and education issues from a feminist and capabilities perspective through a multi-generational study of women as teachers.It explores how different understandings of gender, equality and education generate a variety of approaches with which to pursue gender equality in education.Through employing the capabilities approach in a critical and innovative way to question justice, agency and well-being and also to evaluate valued functionings and capabilities, freedoms and lack of opportunities in women’s lives in Turkey it highlights the need for constructing a gender-just society.The book takes a closer look at these women’s memories, in order to understand how gender roles were created, negotiated and contested, and how the transition to modern ways of socialising and existing was shaped and women’s emancipation was guided by women teachers as social actors, rather than as passive onlookers or oppressed individuals.It provides important insights and critical evidence to be used in the planning and implementation of education and social/gender policies.
