 TITLE
JUSTICE COMMUNITY AND CIVIL SOCIETY: A CONTESTED TERRAIN
 ABSTRACT
This book addresses the contested relationship between criminal justice and the public and the disquiet that has arisen over the past decade and that has been expressed in a variety of ways (the feeling that state criminal justice has drifted too far apart from the needs and concerns of ordinary people, that the police have been attending to the wrong priorities, that the state has failed to reduce crime). The authors reveal how different the cultural attitudes in relation to criminal justice are across Europe, for example in France, Germany, the Netherlands, Ireland; and in some non European countries, such as Canada. ||
