Förlagets beskrivning
In this book, based on papers originally presented at a recent Cambridge
Cropwood conference, a group of leading authorities address the key issues
surrounding the future of sentencing in Britain, in the light particularly of
the highly influential Halliday Report. These proposals for reform amount to
the single most ambitious and comprehensive set of proposals for reconstituting
the sentencing system of a common-law country, and include proposals to replace
existing sentencing statutes, the establishment of a sentencing commission and
sentencing guidelines, and the creation of a sentence review function in the
judiciary. The book also explores the broader set of policy problems and implications
which are raised by the Halliday Report, drawing upon experiences of reform in
other jurisdictions and contexts, particularly that of the USA. This book
should be useful reading for anybody with an interest in the future of
sentencing or the future direction of the criminal justice system. This title addresses the major issues raised by the Halliday Report and
then explores the broader set of policy problems and implications which are
raised, drawing upon experiences of reform in other jurisdictions and contexts,
particularly that of the US.
