Rehabilitative and Restorative Justice for Juvenile Offenders
The Time Trend of Life Satisfaction in China
How Well do Sentencing Guidelines Work
This article considers the scope and potential of sentencing guidelines specifically in relation to the imposition of financial penalties by the courts. Evidence is presented from research with the judiciary in England on the challenge of ensuring equity (that is, equality of impact) in the burden of such penalties, proportionality in relation to the relative seriousness of different offences, and consistency in the pattern of fine levels between…
Financial Penalties
Against the background of a new emphasis by government on the use and enforcement of financial penalties, this article explores some of the realities and problems that currently associate with this form of judicial and administrative sanction, and highlights some of the operational and practice challenges to be addressed if, indeed, financial penalties are to play a more significant role in the future. The article does this, in particular, by dra…
Beyond Managerialism in Criminal Justice
This article reviews changes which public sector managerialism has imposed upon the criminal justice agencies, especially the courts. It presents both theoretical and empirical evidence to suggest that the relevance of managerialism is now receding as contemporary concerns and conditions are encouraging a focus on new priorities and a post‐managerial style of organisation. Finally, it explores the implications for criminal justice and considers t…
Police Bail With Conditions
This paper reports findings from research on the use of a new power granted to the police to attach conditions to police bail. It explores a range of other issues concerning the new power and its use at three different levels. First is the constitutional level, where the implications are discussed of extending liberty-constraining powers from an independent judiciary into the executive arm of the state. Second is the policy and practice level, wh…
The Imposition of Conditions in Bail Decisions
This article reports results from research on the effects of imposing conditions on defendants' bail. The research, which involved interviews with defendants, magistrates, police and probation officers, prosecuting and defence solicitors, explored the process of decision, the pattern of use of conditions, defendants' perceptions and responses while on bail, and reasons for these. The article concludes by highlighting priorities for more effective…
The Court, Consumerism and the Defendant
This article explores the scope for developing consumerist principles in the context of the courts and their treatment of defendants. An initiative at Bexley Magistrates Court is described as a case-study in this respect involving pre-hearings for defendants where advice and assistance are given in applying for legal aid and in obtaining the services of a solicitor. The article presents some results of research which evaluated the initiative; hig…
Just Bail at the Police Station
Among the miscellaneous provisions of the Criminal Justice and Public Order Act 1994, is a new power for the police to attach conditions to 'police bail', a power hitherto reserved only for the courts.' This new power is of potential significance to defendants, the courts, and criminal justice lawyers alike, as well as to the police. The view within the Home Office is that the measure, which was recommended by the Royal Commission on Criminal Jus…
Organizational Culture and the Scheduling of Court Appearances
Spend a couple of days sitting quietly in the back of any magistrates' court and witness the procession of people come before 'the bench'. The magistrates sit at a raised desk, referred to as the bench, and the clerk sits below, surrounded by books and papers. Members of the Crown Prosecution Service stand with a pile of different case files in front of them; solicitors move between one court and another whilst defendants, witnesses, and victims …

Social Area Analysis and Planning Research
This paper appraises the potential of social area analysis - the identification and description of areas according to their social characteristics - for planning and policy-related research. The development of social area analysis is briefly described, from its roots in pre-war urban sociology into its modern form as a research method based on multivariate statistical techniques, notably principal components analysis and cluster analysis. A numbe…
