摘要:

Abstract:The paper is based on an ongoing evaluation of a court‐based diversion scheme for mentally disordered offenders in a busy inner‐London magistrates' court. It begins'with a review of the field, in particular the different decision‐making points at which diversion schemes of this kind might be situated. This is followed by an account of the early experience of the Islington Mentally Disordered Offenders Project which began in the early 1990s. Attention isfocussed on four areas of special need: homelessness; drug misuse; personal violence, and race and ethn

摘要:

Abstract:Research work was carried out in a probation service area, exploring probation practice with drug‐using offenders and looking at the service's response to an initiative undertaken on behalf of drug agencies. A questionnaire survey generated estimates of time probation officers spent in a working week on cases of offenders who were recognised as having a drug problem. As regards partnership between the probation service and drug agencies, there were enthusiasms and worries on both sides. It is concluded that current conceptualisation of and approaches towards drug‐related crime may render future collaborations no easier than what was observed h

摘要:

Abstract:In a recent article, Nellis (1995) undertook a detailed analysis of factors which have served to undermine the ‘traditional’ value‐base of the probation service and outlined a new set of values for the 1990s which, he argued, were more appropriate to the changed role of the service within the criminal justice system and better suited to its changed organisational context. In this reply, the author argues that Nellis has not gone far enough, either in terms of analysing and responding to the changed political context in which criminal justice policy exists or in terms of building on recent developments in criminological theory and that the values he proposes contain and conceal a number of problematic and unresolved tensions and ambiguities. An alternative approach, building on the notion of relational justice, is therefore pro

摘要:

Abstract:Mike Nellis's recent article, ‘Probation values for the 1990s’ (Nellis 1995) is considered to be flawed in that the articulation of anti‐custodialism, restorative justice and community safety locates the probation service as the beneficiary from the rejection of the humanitarian values which underpin probation practice. This response to Mike Nellis suggests that it is those humanitarian values which ensure ‘clients’ are perceived and treated as ‘ends’ rather than as a ‘means’ of transforming the probation service into an agen

摘要:

Abstract:The writer argues for the removal of Rule 47(21) from Prison Rules. It is contrary to the principle o/nulla poena sine lege and also to that of legal certainty. It is unnecessary in that acts constituting offences against good order and discipline may already be punished under other paragraphs of the Rule. An opportunity to review the question will arise with the drafting of new primary and subordinate legislation.
