  1. Harry Frank Guggenheim Foundation

    Primary sources date February 2009 The Harry Frank Guggenheim Foundation was established by Harry Guggenheim to support research on violence, aggression, and dominance. The foundation writes He was convinced that solid, thoughtful, scholarly and scientific research, experimentation, and analysis would in the end accomplish more than the usual solutions impelled by urgency rather than understanding. We do not yet hold the solution to violence, but better analyses, more acute predictions, constructive criticisms, and new, effective ideas will come in time from investigations such as those supported by our grants. The foundation places a priority on the study of neuroscience , genetics , animal behavior, the social sciences, history, criminology, and the humanities which illuminate modern human problems. Grants are made to study aspects of violence related to youth, family relationships, media effects, crime, biological factors, intergroup conflict related to religion, ethnicity, and nationalism, and political violence deployed in war and sub state terrorism, as well as processes of peace and the control of aggression.

  1. Simon Jones Memorial Campaign

    Refimprove date July 2007 The Simon Jones Memorial Campaign was set up after casual dock worker Simon Jones was decapitated in an industrial accident on April 24, 1998. He was working for Euromin on the south coast of England . The campaign argues that failure to train Simon for a dangerous job was tantamount to murder and that the pursuit of profit was put ahead of life. Simon died on his first day at work and was known to have no experience. Deleted image removed Image Dti2.PNG thumb 300px right Campaigners at the Department of Trade and Industry DTI The campaign, supported by anti casual work casualisation campaigners from the trade union s, initially took its fight to Euromin and the employment agency who offered him the work, Personnel Selection . It has been characterised by direct action six months after Simon s death there was an occupation of his workplace and frequent pickets of the employment agency have taken place. When the Health and Safety Executive refused to take up the issue, protestors blockaded the road for three hours. The incident was taken up by Members of Parliament and a Minister government minister acknowledged that the government plans for protecting workers were not enough . The Crown Prosecution Service decision to not prosecute Euromin was overturned on March 23, 2000 by a judicial review, the first time a judicial review has ever insisted on prosecuting corporate manslaughter. Euromin were ultimately fined 50,000 for breach of safety regulations. The manager was acquitted of manslaughter by a majority decision of the jury. The anti casualisation element of the campaign persists with the slogan casualisation kills , the purple stickers can be seen around various casual employers or agencies. The campaigners do workshops on their methods and support others who have been affected by deaths in the workplace.
