Restorative Justice for Drug Crime in Indonesia
While Southeast Asian countries have long been key combatants in the international ‘war on drugs’, drug treatment centres have recently proliferated across the region, targeted at those who commit minor drug offences deemed undeserving of prison. In Indonesia, these centres are the focal point of a ‘restorative justice’ programme intended to reduce both drug use and prison overcrowding through compulsory treatment. Our research sought to understa…
Necropolitics and state-sponsored drug violence
This paper invites the reader to zoom out from the typical focus on violence within the drug trade to consider punishment - judicial and extrajudicial - as a form of state-sponsored, necropolitical violence, part of the continuum of 'drug-related violence' rather than simply a matter of penal policy
Diversion or death? The moral framework shaping bifurcated punishments for drug offences in Indonesia
Background As the UN urges states to move from harsh punishments for drug offences towards treatment programmes, Indonesia has adopted a bifurcated penal policy. Most of those convicted are sentenced to imprisonment or death, but some ‘minor’ offenders are diverted to drug treatment centres. We explore the moralities that shape drug policy, justice professionals’ interpretation and application of laws and policies, and judgements about who is des…
Abolishing the Death Penalty in Zimbabwe
In December 2024, Zimbabwe abolished the death penalty, two decades after its last execution. Drawing on decades of expertise, working with advocates around the globe to reform, restrict and abolish the death penalty, we explicate how the methods applied to bring about abolition in Zimbabwe might form a theoretical and practical basis for fostering change elsewhere in relation to death penalty advocacy, but with possible wider applicability to ot…
Migratory dependency and the death penalty
This article focuses on the cases of 664 foreign nationals, the majority of whom are migrant workers, under sentence of death across the Gulf states (including Jordan and Lebanon) between 2016 and 2021. The features of these cases suggest that they are inextricably linked to migrant workers’ dependency under the kafala system, with examples of migrants duped into smuggling drugs across the border by their migrant broker, and once in country, acco…
A Disproportionate Risk of Being Executed
Many labour migrants in the Arab Gulf countries are from South Asia. Necessary to local economies, they enjoy few rights and protections from host states, particularly when accused of serious crimes. Our original empirical data suggests a disproportionate number of Pakistanis sentenced to death and executed in Saudi Arabia and we explore explanations within a wider discussion of the place and experiences of South Asian migrants in the Gulf. Our d…
The shifting landscape of post-conviction review in New Zealand
Concerns about the lack of integrity in the criminal process, and resulting miscarriages of justice, dented public confidence in the New Zealand justice system and its limited post-conviction review procedures. In turn, this generated an appetite for a Criminal Cases Review Commission, modelled on the English and Scottish Commissions. This article draws on evidence from the English Commission to consider the prospects for the New Zealand Commissi…
Reasons to Doubt
This book reveals what happens to applications for post-conviction review when those in England and Wales who consider themselves to have been wrongfully convicted, and have exhausted direct appeal processes, apply to have their case assessed by the Criminal Cases Review Commission. It presents the findings of the first thorough empirical study of decision-making and the use of discretion within the Commission. It shows how the Commission exercis…
Forensic Science and Expert Testimony in Wrongful Convictions
The Criminal Cases Review Commission reviews possible wrongful convictions in England, Wales and Northern Ireland, referring back to the Court of Appeal cases where there is a ‘real possibility’ that the conviction is unsafe. This article presents findings from a four-year empirical study of decision-making within the Commission. It explores how Commission staff exercise their discretionary powers in identifying and investigating possible wrongfu…

Family justice centres
The London Borough of Croydon, in the south of England, established, in December 2005, a Family Justice Centre (FJC) to respond in a flexible way to meet the varied needs of those abused in intimate relationships. The FJC brings together some 33 agencies under one roof. This article draws on a small, grounded pilot study of the Croydon FJC – the first study of a FJC in the UK − to consider if the co-location and cooperation of services to victims…
What is Criminology?
Criminology is a booming discipline, yet one which can appear divided and fractious. The chapters in this book respond to a series of questions designed to investigate the state, impact, and future challenges of the discipline: What is criminology for? What is the impact of criminology? How should criminology be done? What are the key issues and debates in criminology today? What challenges does the discipline of criminology face? How has crimino…
Labelling the Victims of Sex Trafficking
In this article we discuss findings from a small scoping study into the experiences of victims of trafficking and those who work with them. We use testimonies from our interviews to examine issues of choice, slavery and escape. We challenge some of the current language and terminology in the literature on trafficking and call for a more nuanced appreciation of the relationship between agency and victimization
Exploring the everyday world of hate victimization through community mediation
For some time, hate crimes were conceptualized as acts of hatred committed by strangers – typically as violent attacks against people perceived to be different from the attacker. Considering hate as an aggravating feature resulted in increasingly punitive and exclusionary criminal justice and sentencing legislation. Left out of this picture were the messier, sometimes intractable disputes between people known to one another – neighbours, colleagu…
Researching Trafficked Women
This article exposes methodological barriers we encountered in a small research project on women trafficked for the purpose of sexual exploitation and our attempts, drawing on feminist and emergent methods, to resolve them. It critically assesses the role of institutional gatekeepers and the practical challenges faced in obtaining data directly from trafficking victims. Such difficulties, it suggests, spring at least in part from lingering disagr…
Debating Restorative Justice
Debating Law is a new, exciting series that gives scholarly experts the opportunity to offer contrasting perspectives on significant topics of contemporary, general interest. In this first volume of the series Carolyn Hoyle argues that communities and the state should be more restorative in responding to harms caused by crimes, antisocial behaviour and other incivilities. She supports the exclusive use of restorative justice for many non-serious …
Abolishing the Death Penalty Worldwide
The number of countries to abolish capital punishment has increased remarkably since the end of 1988. A “new dynamic” has emerged that recognizes capital punishment as a denial of the universal human rights to life and to freedom from tortuous, cruel, and inhuman punishment, and international human rights treaties and institutions that embody the abolition of capital punishment as a universal goal have developed. We pay attention to the political…
The Death Penalty
The 4th edition of this study of the death penalty brings up-to-date developments in the movement to abolish the practice worldwide. It draws on personal experience as consultant to the United Nations for the UN Secretary General's five-yearly surveys of capital punishment and on the latest information from non-governmental organisations and the academic literature. Not only have many more countries abolished capital punishment but, even amongst …

Police Response to Domestic Violence
This article explores the neglected question of why victims of domestic violence call the police, and how useful the police response is to them. We found that many women do not seek criminal sanctions because sanctions are unlikely to help to end the violence. This calls into question the value, to victims, of mandatory arrest policies which require prosecution decisions to be based on evidential concerns alone. These policies are based (naively,…
