The State, the Legal Profession, and the Defence of the Poor
In this paper we seek to explain how and why institutional lawyers arise in a market structured by the state but traditionally dominated by private producers in capitalist societies. Although the literature on the sociology of the legal profession has concentrated very heavily upon the private sector's market dominance, increasingly institutional lawyers have taken over the defence of poor people charged with criminal offences. This has been, of …

Criminal Juries
The jury represents the very cornerstone of the Anglo-American legal system, and a massive literature has built up over the course of this century as testimony to this fact. Three important sets of empirical questions can be isolated: whether the jury is a competent fact finder, able to assess evidence, understand legal instructions, and reach appropriate results; whether juries are representative of the communities from which they come and, wher…

Plea Bargaining and the Court of Appeal
Plea Bargaining and the Research Dilemma
Plea bargaining has been traditionally assumed to play no part in the administration of criminal justice in England. Research conducted by the authors casts serious doubts on this assumption. Their report on this research provoked a vituperative response from leaders of the English legal profession who attempted to suppress its publication. Some implications of this reaction for the independent conduct of research are examined in this article
Plea Bargaining and Plea Negotiation in England
In this paper, some recent findings about the nature of plea negotiation in the Birmingham Crown Court in England are discussed. These findings, to which the legal profession in England reacted with hostility, raise doubts about traditionally accepted assumptions concerning the role of plea bargaining in English criminal justice
Trial by Jury
The authors of this article attempt to examine jury performance by collating and comparing views on the jury's verdicts drawn from other participants in the trial. This research is based on a study of jury trials heard in the Crown Court at Birmingham, England, together with additional material drawn from a sample of cases in London. It shows that doubts about both acquittals and convictions by jury were expressed with a surprising frequency. An …
