Labour has embarked upon a root and branch remaking of the criminal justice system in England and Wales, with a mass of new legislation implemented or planned. It has ensured a continuously high profile for criminal justice issues, and they have been at the centre of wider political discourse. Yet the basis and evidence on which these reforms are being introduced is both uncertain and highly controversial. Despite spending tens of millions of pounds of research into the criminal justice system in the name of evidence-based policy, evidence has counted only in relation to lowlevel technocratic

American criminal justice may be one of the best known - and most influential - systems of criminal justice in the world, but also the least understood: countless films and television series portray American police officers, prosecutors and lawyers, but over 95 percent of criminal matters result in guilty pleas, and trials are becoming vanishingly scarce as people accused of crime choose to strike a deal with increasingly powerful prosecutors. Sentencing 'reform' has led to a burgeoning prison population that is by far the highest among economically advanced countries. Meanwhile, American prosecutors have gained increasing (and largely unchecked) power to apply US criminal laws to worldwide corporations and individuals with little or no connection with the country. American Criminal Justice: An Introduction provides a readable, comprehensive review of the American criminal process behind these and other problems.

Out-of-Control Criminal Justice shows that our system of criminal justice is broken; it is out of control. The author writes that a research-based strategy is needed that builds on the insights of those who work within criminal justice or are affected by it. Such a strategy must entail continuous evaluation and improvement, so that what works can be expanded and what does not can be eliminated. Out-of-Control Criminal Justice identifies how systems problems plague our criminal justice systems. It then presents a comprehensive strategy for bringing these systems under control to reduce crime, to increase justice and accountability, and to do so at less cost. The strategy can be used, too, to create greater responsiveness to victims and communities, effectiveness in reducing racial and ethnic disparities, and understanding of the causes and consequences of crime. After describing this new approach, the book identifies the tools needed to implement a systems solution to create a safer and more just society.

Der vorliegende Band vereinigt die Referate eines am 27. Mai 2016 in Gt̲tingen durchgefپhrten Workshops zur Entwicklung des Jugendfپrsorge- und Jugendstrafrechts in Deutschland. Er beobachtet die Entwicklung dieser Rechtsgebiete in vier politischen Systemen vom Kaiserreich پber die Weimarer Republik und den Nationalsozialismus bis in die Bundesrepublik. Auf der Grundlage von sechs Beitrg̃en werden u.a. das Verhl̃tnis von Strafe und Erziehung, die Radikalisierung des Jugendrechts im Nationalsozialismus sowie die personellen Kontinuitt̃en und die Fortfپhrung einzelner Diskurse und Ideen پber das Jahr 1945 hinaus nh̃er beleuchtet. Mehrere Beitrg̃e beschf̃tigen sich zudem mit dem umstrittenen Gt̲tinger Strafrechtler Friedrich Schaffstein und seinen Konzepten zum Jugendstrafrecht seit der Mitte der 1930er Jahre sowie ihren Einflپssen auf die jugendstrafrechtliche Diskussion in der Bundesrepublik.
