TEACHSOC: help, please

[Marty Schwartz]

Hi -- for reasons I don't completely understand (I thought you got immunity from new preps after 30 years!), I will be teaching a senior seminar next year on criminal justice and morality (in other words, should these things be against the law).  We will be using a text that covers drugs, prostitution, abortion, pornography, homosexuality and gambling.  I like to have students present at least two sides of issues, and then have a class debate.  Probably I will direct the abortion debate to stem cell theory research, and use queer theory heavily to avoid the homosexuality and deviance quagmire.  If anyone has seen any good articles, short cheap books, videos, class exercises, fuzzy dice or whatever, please let me know.  Has anyone used the video Southern Comfort?  Perhaps I could do sex trafficking, but I'd have to see who is in the class -- I  did a lot on it in my violence against women class last year.  
        I'm sure you could post any answers, but private suggestions to [EMAIL PROTECTED] would be just as appreciated.  Thanks in advance.

Marty
