Though during the 1980s and 1990s, the Party's emphasis was on "kill many," in the 2000s the direction of policy began to move toward "kill fewer." This book details the policies, institutions, and story behind the reform of the death penalty.Palgrave Series in Asian GovernanceEthnologyAsiaEthicsLawPhilosophyLawCorrectionsPunishmentAsian Culturehttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/411040Asian Politicshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/911110Ethicshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/E14000Theories of Law, Philosophy of Law, Legal Historyhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/R11011US Politicshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/911180Prison and Punishmenthttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/1B9000AsiaPolitics and governmentUnited StatesPolitics and governmentEthnologyEthics.LawPhilosophy.Law.Corrections.Punishment.Asian Culture.Asian Politics.Ethics.Theories of Law, Philosophy of Law, Legal History.US Politics.Prison and Punishment.364.660951364.660973Trevaskes Sauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut1559068BOOK9910790307803321The Death Penalty in Contemporary China3823959UNINA03953nam 22004575 450 991079681730332120230823004445.01-5036-0568-X10.1515/9781503605688(CKB)4100000004835219(MiAaPQ)EBC5430368(DE-B1597)564905(DE-B1597)9781503605688(OCoLC)1178769717(EXLCZ)99410000000483521920200723h20202018 fg 0engurcnu||||||||txtrdacontentcrdamediacrrdacarrierHow to Be Sort of Happy in Law School /Kathryne M.

Each new crop experiences startlingly high rates of depression, anxiety, fatigue, and dissatisfaction. Kathryne M. Young was one of those disgruntled law students. After finishing law school (and a PhD), she set out to learn more about the law school experience and how to improve it for future students. Young conducted one of the most ambitious studies of law students ever undertaken, charting the experiences of over 1000 law students from over 100 different law schools, along with hundreds of alumni, dropouts, law professors, and more. How to Be Sort of Happy in Law School is smart, compelling, and highly readable. Combining her own observations and experiences with the results of her study and the latest sociological research on law schools, Young offers a very different take from previous books about law school survival. Instead of assuming her readers should all aspire to law-review-and-big-firm notions of success, Young teaches students how to approach law school on their own terms: how to tune out the drumbeat of oppressive expectations and conventional wisdom to create a new breed of law school experience altogether. Young provides readers with practical tools for finding focus, happiness, and a sense of purpose while facing the seemingly endless onslaught of problems law school presents daily. This book is an indispensable companion for today's law students, prospective law students, and anyone who cares about making law students' lives better. Bursting with warmth, realism, and a touch of firebrand wit, How to Be Sort of Happy in Law School equips law students with much-needed wisdom for thriving during those three crucial years.Law studentsUnited StatesPsychologyLaw schoolsUnited StatesSociological aspectsLaw studentsPsychology.Law schoolsSociological aspects.340.071/173Young Kathryne M.authttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut1579715DE-B1597DE-B1597BOOK9910796817303321How to Be Sort of Happy in Law School3859994UNINA
