摘要:

Abstract:The United Nations Third Survey of Crime and Criminal Justice (United Nations 1987) contains data on global criminal justice expenditure. The data show that between 1982 and 1986 there was a trend of increased expenditure on criminal justice. At the same time crime rates increased. This paper examines criminal justice expenditure in different parts of the system, in an attempt to discover whether there are patterns to global criminal justice expenditure. The author concludes that criminal justice expenditure is more concerned with political and ideological objectives than with feasible criminal justice outcomes.

摘要:

Abstract:This study focusses on how the media portrays barristers' comments in rape trials. It examines shifts in reporting since the Second World War. The importance of the contributions of the prosecuting counsel is noted. In fact, it is not simply assumptions of the defence taken up by the media which sustain sexist attitudes but on occasions the prosecuting counsel can also be seen as colluding. This has legal and media implications. It not only questions assumptions concerning the adversarial legal systems but also it is argued that an implicit consensus is reflected by unified ‘real‐life’ accounts of the rape

摘要:

Abstract:This article examines the concept, strongly promoted in recent Home Office policy, of partnerships between the probation service and the independent sector. Its aim is to discuss the implications of this concept for probation policy and practice. It is argued first that current debates have tended to lose sight of a long tradition of joint work between the service and the voluntary sector, and examples are given of past partnerships' which may help inform present thinking. Five central issues are then identified ‐ the divisibility of probation tasks, accountability, compatibility of aims, organisation, and funding. It is suggested that their resolution may depend upon enhanced local participation and co‐operation in criminal just

摘要:

Abstract:The aims, administrative stuctures, funding, evaluation requirements and immediate origins of Safer Cities are described. A detailed explanation of each of the major elements of the programme is then attempted, focussing in particular on the complex interrelationships between politics, Home Office sponsored criminology and policy formulation. There follows an analysis of the context and logic of the programme as it has emerged and may develop in the future. A series of summary statements describing the antecedents of concerns with crime prevention as a policy issue and of safer Cities as a particular expression of this reveal the essentially contingent character of the initiative.
