Book Synopsis Community Penalties by : Anthony Bottoms
Download or read book Community Penalties written by Anthony Bottoms and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-01-11 with total page 273 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Community penalties are punishments that, in the courts' sentencing tariff, come between imprisonment and fines. They include electronic tagging, supervised unpaid work, and compulsory participation by offenders in treatment programmes. Recent years have seen many changes in England in the field of community penalties. These have included the rapid development of accredited offending behaviour programmes, and some new court orders such as the Referral Order for juveniles, based on the principles of restorative justice. Organisationally, too, the year 2001 sees a major change with the establishment of the National Probation Service for England and Wales. Community Penalties: change and challenges addresses the key issues facing community penalties at this critical time. Topics covered include the recent history of community penalties, partnership work, cognitive behavioural approaches to changing offenders' behaviour (and the need to look beyond these), compliance theory, accountability to the public and to the victim, accommodating difference and diversity in the delivery of community penalties, the use of technology in community penalties, and community penalties and issues of public safety. Community Penalties: change and challenges brings together many leading authors in this field. Together, they provide an authoritative review of a vital field of public policy.

Book Synopsis Reforming Community Penalties by : Sue Rex
Download or read book Reforming Community Penalties written by Sue Rex and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-01-11 with total page 192 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book sets out to explore the role of community penalties in sentencing, arguing that the absence of a strong intellectual framework or underpinning has hampered their development in policy and practice. The research undertaken for this book involved asking people with a particular stake in criminal justice what the point of punishment was and what the courts were trying to achieve in sentencing offenders. It identifies the role of communication as crucial, and looks at ways in which 'communication' can be used to make punishment more constructive, exploring the role of restorative processes and considering the implications of the custody-community provisions in the Criminal Justice Act 2003. Reforming Community Penalties is a major contribution to penological theory and thinking about sentencing and role in criminal justice, and will be essential reading for all with a practitioner or academic interest in this subject. Its findings are likely to play a key role in aiding the development and practice of community penalties, and enabling them to command greater support, and to become a genuine alternative to the increasing use of custody in sentencing and punishment.
Book Synopsis Understanding Community Penalties by : Peter Raynor
Download or read book Understanding Community Penalties written by Peter Raynor and published by Open University Press. This book was released on 2002 with total page 164 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This title provides a concise and critical understanding of community sentences in relation to policy, practice and research. Coverage of these three contexts is a distinguishing feature of the book, which takes a comprehensive approach informed by the authors' long involvement in this field. It begins by examining the role and function of community sentences, and how they challenge the framework of thinking about punishment in the criminal justice system. The book then traces the historical development of the theory and practice of community supervision, and shows what impact the first wave of research into its effectiveness has had on policy and practice.

Book Synopsis Punishment and reform by : Great Britain: Ministry of Justice
Download or read book Punishment and reform written by Great Britain: Ministry of Justice and published by The Stationery Office. This book was released on 2012-03-27 with total page 64 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the 2010 green paper, Breaking the cycle (Cm. 7972, ISBN 9780101797221), the Government set out plans for overhauling the way sentences served in the community are used, to increase the public's confidence in them and to tackle the continuing problem of reoffending. This consultation explores in more detail how that can be achieved and sets out proposals for radical reforms to the way in which sentences served in the community operate. Victims and society have a right to expect that wrongdoing results in punishment, and that they will be protected from further reoffending. Ultimately the goal must be to reduce crime and see fewer victims. Community orders need to be demanding and rigorously enforced so that they are as punitive and effective as a custodial sentence. The Government is clear that short prison sentences have their place, and this consultation does not seek to replace them with community sentences. But where an offender is on the cusp of custody, sentencers should have a genuine choice. Views are sought here on how that can be done through a tough package of requirements. A Consultation on effective probation services is publishing simultaneously (Cm. 8333, ISBN 9780101833325)

Book Synopsis Community Punishment by : Gwen Robinson
Download or read book Community Punishment written by Gwen Robinson and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2015-10-16 with total page 277 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Community Punishment: European perspectives, the authors place punishment in the community under the spotlight by exploring the origins, evolution and adaptations of supervision in 11 European jurisdictions. For most people, punishment in the criminal justice system is synonymous with imprisonment. Yet, both in Europe and in the USA, the numbers of people under some form of penal supervision in the community far exceeds the numbers in prison, and many prisoners are released under supervision. Written and edited by leading scholars in the field, this collection advances the sociology of punishment by illuminating the neglected but crucial phenomenon of ‘mass supervision’. As well as putting criminological and penological theories to the test in an examination of their ability to explain the evolution of punishment beyond the prison, and across diverse states, the contributors to this volume also assess the appropriateness of the term ‘community punishment’ in different parts of Europe. Engaging in a serious exploration of common themes and differences in the jurisdictions included in the collection, the authors go on to examine how ‘community punishment’ came into being in their jurisdiction and how its institutional forms and practices have been legitimated and re-legitimated in response to shifting social, cultural and political contexts. This book is essential reading for academics and students involved in the study of both community punishment and comparative penology, but will also be of great interest to criminal justice policymakers, managers and practitioners.

Book Synopsis Invisible Punishment by : Meda Chesney-Lind
Download or read book Invisible Punishment written by Meda Chesney-Lind and published by The New Press. This book was released on 2011-05-10 with total page 370 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In a series of newly commissioned essays from the leading scholars and advocates in criminal justice, Invisible Punishment explores, for the first time, the far-reaching consequences of our current criminal justice policies. Adopted as part of “get tough on crime” attitudes that prevailed in the 1980s and '90s, a range of strategies, from “three strikes” and “a war on drugs,” to mandatory sentencing and prison privatization, have resulted in the mass incarceration of American citizens, and have had enormous effects not just on wrong-doers, but on their families and the communities they come from. This book looks at the consequences of these policies twenty years later.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book aims to provide a critical analysis of both political and professional developments in policy and practice relating to non-custodial penalties, taking full account of recent developments and the creation of a National Probation Service in 2002. Its aim is to unravel the complex institutional goals (the role of community punishment in the criminal justice system), professional goals (what can be achieved by community punishment) and political goals (the packaging and 'sale' of community punishment to the law-abiding public). The central focus is on principles and politics of community punishment, and on the changing role of the probation service.
