Tamar, Rahab, Ruth, “she of Uriah” and Mary all initially occupy places on the margins and consequently represent both those who are outsiders to Israel and those on the margins within Israel. The inclusion of these women in Matthew's gospel serves to signal the importance of those on the margins in the ministry of the Messiah and to anticipate Matthew’s rhetoric concerning the broadening of Israel’s boundaries to include Gentile outsiders.

In the last two decades, maternal scholarship has grown exponentially. Despite this, however, there are still numerous areas which remain under-researched, one of which is the experiences of marginalised mothers. Far from being a sentimental, feel-good account of mothering, this collection speaks with the voices of mothers through the application of a matricentric lens. In particular, it speaks with the voices of those mothers who feel alienated or stigmatised; mothers who have been rendered ...

The Gospel of Matthew opens with a patrilineal genealogy of Jesus that intriguingly includes five women: Tamar, Rahab, Ruth, 'she of Uriah', and Mary. In a gospel that has a strongly Jewish and male-orientated outlook, why are women incorporated? Particularly, why include these four Old Testament women alongside Mary? Rejecting traditional as well as feminist views, E. Anne Clements undertakes a close literary reading of the narratives to discern how each woman is characterised and presented. All are significant scriptural figures on the margins of Israelite society. From this intertextual world established by Matthew, Clements explores why Matthew may have named these women in the opening genealogy and what implications their inclusion may have for the ongoing gospel narrative. Mothers on the Margin? argues that Matthew's Gospel contains a counter narrative focused on women. The presence of the five women in the genealogy indicates that the birth of the Messiah will bring about a crisis in Israel's identity in terms of ethnicity, marginality, and gender. The women signal that Matthew's Gospel is concerned with the construal of a new identity for the people of God.

"In patriarchal societies, there is a connection between being a woman and being a mother. It is assumed that not only will women want to be mothers, but that they will practice intensive mothering tactics (Hays 1996). In other words, mothers will spend massive amounts of time and energy on their children, they will buy their children anything they want and they will sacrifice their wants and needs for those of their children. If women participate in intensive mothering, they are evaluated as good mothers. These standards of behavior, however, have been found to be virtually impossible to maintain, especially for women who are in financial straits ad who are not able to spend large quantities of time with their children. The noncustodial mother is one such woman. Using one-on-one semi-structured interviews, this dissertations examined sixteen noncustodial mothers' experiences with motherhood as non-normative mothers. Findings indicated that the relinquishment of custody, whether voluntary or involuntary, is a difficult life event for mothers. The mothers in this study experienced drastic changes in their mothering lives as they transitioned from custodial to noncustodial caregivers, including changes in contact with and control over children, changes in the mothering role, and the experience of stigmatization due to their 'deviant' mothering status. Despite the changes in their mothering role, the majoring of the mothers still tried to maintain intensive mothering strategies. Some succeeded, others failed. As a result of attenpting to maintain these standards, the mothers experienced depression and guilt. The findings of this dissertation have sociological and policy implications. Findings demonstrate the need to redefine what it means to be a family and more specifically, what it means to be a mother. Recommendations are made regarding how to make these changes happen, as well as for future research on this population."--Abstract.

Virginia E. Schein shatters the stereotype of mothers on welfare. The women she interviewed in cities, towns, and rural areas talked to her about their deep committment to the children they are raising in poverty, about the abuse they have endured, about their eagerness for meaningful work, and about their inventiveness in stretching scarce dollars. In a policy debate increasingly dominated by shrill, punitive voices, Schein argues that the experiences and collective wisdom of these women cannot be ignored.

The Latin America and Caribbean (LAC) region has the undesirable distinction of being the world's most violent region, with 24.7 homicides per 100,000 inhabitants. The magnitude of the problem is staggering and persistent. Of the top 50 most violent cities in the world, 42 are in LAC. In 2010 alone, 142,302 people in LAC fell victim to homicide, representing 390 homicides per day and 4.06 homicides every 15 minutes. Crime disproportionately affects young men aged 20 to 24, whose homicide rate of 92 per 100,000 nearly quadruples that of the region. The focus of Crime Prevention in Latin America and the Caribben is to identify policy interventions that, whether by design or indirect effect, have been shown to affect antisocial behavior early in life and patterns of criminal offending in youth and adults. Particular attention is devoted to recent studies that rigorously establish a causal link between the interventions in question and outcomes. This publication adopts a lifecycle perspective and argues that as individuals progress through different stages of the lifecycle, not only do different sets of risk factors arise and take more prominence, but their interactions and interdependencies shape human behavior. These interactions and the relative importance of different sets of risk factors identify relevant margins that can effectively be targeted by prevention policies, not only early in life, but throughout the lifecycle. Indeed prevention can never start too early, nor start too late, nor be too comprehensive.
