  • Product Description

    Policies dealing with crime are a central feature of contemporary British political life. Crime and crime statistics receive wide exposure and evoke strong public outcry, and politicians are often judged as much by the speed and tone of their reactions as by their considered responses. In this timely sequel to his seminal work Responses to Crime, Lord Windlesham examines how criminal justice policy is first formulated and then enacted at Parliamentary and Government levels. Drawing upon scholarly material and his experience as a former Home Office Minister, Lord Windlesham identifies the pressures which traditionally and typically influence policy decisions. Emerging from his scholarly and accessible analysis is an appreciation of how the articulation of policy is often less coherent than it seems.
