Paperback. Zustand: Fair. It is conventional wisdom that there is a grave crisis in our criminal courts: the widespread reliance on plea-bargaining and the settlement of most cases with just a few seconds before the judge endanger the rights of defendants. Not so, says Malcolm Feeley in this provocative and original book. Basing his argument on intensive study of the lower criminal court system, Feeley demonstrates that the absence of formal due process is preferred by all of the court's participants, and especially by defendants. Moreover, he argues, it is not all clear that as a group defendants would be better off in a more 'formal' court system, since the real costs to those accused of misdemeanors and lesser felonies are not the fines and prison sentences meted out by the court, but the costs incurred before the case even comes before the judge--lost wages from missed work, commissions to bail bondsmen, attorney's fees, and wasted time. Therefore, the overriding interest of the accused is not to secure the formal trappings of the judicial process, but to minimize the time, and money, spent dealing with the court. Focusing on New Haven, Connecticut's, lower court, Feeley found that the defense and prosecution often agreed that the pre-trial process was sufficient to teach the defendant a lesson. In effect, Feeley demonstrates that the informal practices of the lower courts as they are presently constituted are more just than they are usually given credit for being. . a book that should be read by anyone who is interested in understanding how courts work and how the criminal sanction is administered in modern, complex societies.-- Barry Mahoney, Institute for Court Management, Denver It is grounded in a firm grasp of theory as well as thorough field research.--Jack B. Weinstein, U.S. District Court Judge. a feature that has long been the hallmark of good American sociology: it recreates a believable world of real men and women.--Paul Wiles, Law & Society Review. This book's findings are well worth the attention of the serious criminal justice student, and the analyses reveal a thoughtful, probing, and provocative intelligence.an important contribution to the debate on the role and limits of discretion in American criminal justice. It deserves to be read by all those who are interested in the outcome of the debate. --Jerome H. Skolnick, American Bar Foundation Research Journal.…

Paperback. Zustand: Fair. Between 1965 and 1990, federal judges in almost all of the states handed down sweeping rulings that affected virtually every prison and jail in the United States. Without a doubt judges were the most important prison reformers during this period. This book provides an account of this process, and uses it to explore the more general issue of the role of courts in the modern bureaucratic state. In doing so, it provides detailed accounts of how the courts formulated and sought to implement their orders, and how this action affected the traditional conception of federalism, separation of powers, and the rule of law.…

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - What explains divergences in political liberalism among new nations that shared the same colonial heritage This book assembles exciting original essays on former colonies of the British Empire in South Asia, Africa and Southeast Asia that gained independence after World War II. The interdisciplinary country specialists reveal how inherent contradictions within British colonial rule were resolved after independence in contrasting liberal-legal, despotic and volatile political orders. Through studies of the longue durée and particular events, this book presents a theory of political liberalism in the post-colony and develops rich hypotheses on the conditions under which the legal complex, civil society and the state shape alternative postcolonial trajectories around political freedom. This provocative volume presents new perspectives for scholars and students of postcolonialism, political development and the politics of the legal complex, as well as for policy makers and publics who struggle to construct and defend basic legal freedoms.…
