This text offers a comprehensive and holistic overview of the criminal justice process from the commission of an offence to resettlement or community supervision and formal exit from the process.

A Practical Introduction

The Criminal Justice Process

Across the Aisle

This balanced book illuminates Republican and Democratic responses and attitudes toward crime, police work, sentencing, incarceration, and rehabilitation in the USA. A broad array of law enforcement and criminal justice issues are examined, including mass incarceration, sentencing disparities, anti-drug efforts, marijuana legalization, death penalty, mandatory minimums, civil asset forfeiture, prison privatization, rape and other crimes in prison settings, women in prison, support for therapeutic/educational programs, sentencing for juvenile offenders, harsher penalties for hate crimes, and voting rights for ex-felons. The focus is on specific and timely topics in criminal justice that are most susceptible to legislative policies. Readers will benefit by developing an appreciation for how politics impacts the criminal justice system, and how the parties have developed laws that impact their lives, dictate acceptable behavior, and legislate appropriate responses for violators. The emphasis of the series is contemporary, but it includes historical perspective to provide a sense of how each party's positions and actions have evolved over time.

International Criminal Court (ICC) 14 November 2019 - 3 February 2021

Annotated Leading Cases of International Criminal Tribunals - volume 77

Drawing on broader legal-political discourses within the party-state and institutionalised academia, this book shines a light on one of the most controversial legal principles in Chinese criminal justice: the presumption of innocence. It argues the reasons why there is no presumption of innocence in China, tracing the curve, or evolution, of academic discourse about presumption of innocence against the backdrop of changing politics, or varying emphases on national conditions, from Mao Zedong to Xi Jinping. The book deepens our understanding of the trajectory of criminal justice reforms in the party-state and shows how the more open and liberal phases of the reform era opened up some space for pluralist views and constructive criticism. In comparison, the second wave of autocratisation of the system influenced the conception of the criminal and paved the way for an illiberal turn.

Fraud: A Practitioner's Handbook

This book explores how different legal systems handle a particularly difficult type of corporate wrongdoing: Catholic dioceses' responsibility for child sexual abuse. Usually, when people think about corporate wrongdoing, they think about tax fraud, insider trading, and similar 'white-collar' crime. As corporations, dioceses' responsibility for child sexual abuse exists separately from that of individual perpetrators, and this corporate responsibility is the focus of this book. Through an analysis of cases involving dioceses that have significant documented histories of priests abusing children, this book illustrates how criminal law, canon law, tort law, bankruptcy law and an Australian Royal Commission have responded (or why they have not). The cases involve the Diocese of Ballarat, in Victoria, Australia, and the Diocese of Gallup, in northern Arizona and New Mexico, in the United States. Each diocese faced similar claims in a diverse field of legal systems, so very different legal systems were handling, in essence, the same cases in dissimilar contexts. Employing a novel interdisciplinary approach, the book traces the theories, purposes, doctrines, procedures, and logistics of engaging with these different legal systems - evaluating what they can and cannot do. Revitalising theories of responsive law, the book demonstrates that it is possible for legal systems to better hold not just Catholic dioceses, but corporations more generally, to account for wrongdoing, but we may need to rethink how those systems are structured.

Catholic Dioceses, Legal Systems, and Corporate Accountability

This book explores the foundations of the principle of altruism and its relationship to the criminal law, examining the contrasting justifications for the duty of easy rescue and the duty of tolerance, both of which are based on altruism. Since the days of Lord Macaulay and James FitzJames Stephen, it has been said that English law does not usually punish omissions, and that altruistic duties are incompatible with the spirit of the common law. This book aims to show that this is not an accurate description of English criminal law, and that there is a strong case to be made for the opposite understanding, based on principles advanced by authors such as Adam Smith, Jeremy Bentham, John Stuart Mill and others. By analysing the duty of easy rescue - which imposes on individuals a duty to take steps to rescue a person in danger if this can be done without risk to the rescuer, or at least a duty to call the emergency services - and by comparing it with the well-known duties arising in cases of extreme necessity, it can be shown that altruism has plenty to say in different parts of the criminal law. Having established the case for criminalising the failure to provide a simple rescue, a detailed analysis is made of the form that this criminalisation should take, bearing in mind the basic principles of English law and considering the strengths and weaknesses of the duty of easy rescue as it is formulated in various continental systems, including the German, French, Spanish and Italian criminal codes.

Duties of Rescue and Tolerance

Altruism and the Criminal Law

This cutting-edge collection is a riposte to the deep assumption that law should be written exclusively for and by the reasonable person, as the person to whom law is addressed and by reference to whom laws are designed and calibrated. The book looks at how the social dimension of the human experience is central to human existence: connections with other people shape our lives in profound ways. While law confers formal status on certain relationships and intervenes to remedy serious injustices that occur, it does not generally concern itself with the individual as a person formed through those and other relationships. It is most often addressed to the individual, on the assumption that individuals are rational autonomous agents. It poses a deep challenge to that assumption. First, the collection opens space for conversation on the social dimension of the human experience in the context of law by critically considering existing conceptual tools that could support such a conversation, e.g., community, solidarity, associations,collective rights, and cosmopolitan law. Second, the collection takes an inventory of the extent to which law currently takes the social dimension of personhood into account in fields as diverse as criminal culpability, natural resources law, human rights, company lawand administrative justice. In moving beyond the fields that have already been the subject of post-individualist and post-autonomy discourse, such as family law and medical law, this collection is a vital contribution to igniting a broader conversation about the relationship between the sociable person and the law.
