Description:
This book is based on an in-depth conversation with Julian Roberts, Professor of Criminology at the University of Oxford. Julian Roberts is an international expert on sentencing throughout the common-law world and is strongly involved in connecting scholars with practitioners as well as promoting greater public understanding of sentencing. This thought-provoking conversation covers a wide range of topics related to criminal justice, including plea bargaining, the involvement of victims in criminal sentencing procedures, victim impact statements, parole, sentencing multiple and repeat crimes, community-based sentencing, alternate dispute resolution, rehabilitation, and more.

This carefully-edited book includes an introduction, Copping a Plea, and questions for discussion at the end of each chapter:

I. Sentencing and Deterrence - Considerable ambiguity

II. Plea Bargaining - Reasonable or worrying?

III. Involving the Victim - An additional perspective

IV. Punishment - Parole, prisons and philosophy

V. Comparing and Contrasting - Best and worst practices

VI. Towards the Future - Progress?
