It discusses cases from criminal, civil and international law to parse the impact of forensic evidence and expertise in different European countries. The contributors show how modern forensic science and technology are inextricably entangled with political ideology, gender norms and changes in the law and legal systems. Discussing fascinating case studies, they highlight how the ideology of authoritarian and liberal regimes has affected the practical enactment of forensic expertise. They also emphasise the influence of images of masculinity and femininity on the performance of experts and on their assessment of evidence, victims and perpetrators. This book is an important contribution to our knowledge of modern European forensic practices.MEDICAL / Forensic Medicinebisacshcrimes of passionexpertiseforensic medicineforensic psychiatryforensic sciencegenderinfanticidelawmurdersexual assaultMEDICAL / Forensic Medicine.363.25094Adam Alisonctbhttps://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/ctbBergers Laractbhttps://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/ctbBergers Laraedthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtDirven Paulinectbhttps://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/ctbDirven Paulineedthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtDixon Rachelctbhttps://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/ctbGaribian Talinectbhttps://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/ctbMartínez Sara Serranoctbhttps://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/ctbOrlandi Francoctbhttps://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/ctbParfenchyk Volhactbhttps://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/ctbRuberg Willemijn1975-ctbhttps://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/ctbRuberg Willemijn1975-edthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtSantos Filipectbhttps://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/ctbSerrano Martínez Saraedthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtSkålevåg Svein Atlectbhttps://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/ctbWard Tonyctbhttps://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/ctbWolffram Heatherctbhttps://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/ctbDE-B1597DE-B1597BOOK9910987827103321Forensic cultures in modern Europe3875493UNINA
