Victims and Plea Negotiations: Overlooked and Unimpressed: Palgrave Studies in Victims and Victimology
Autor Arie Freiberg, Asher Flynnen Limba Engleză Hardback – 3 noi 2020
This book explores victims’ views of plea negotiations and the level of input that they desire. It draws on the empirical findings of the first in-depth study of victims and plea negotiations conducted in Australia. Over the last 50 years, the criminal justice system has seen major changes in both the role that victims play in the justice process and in how the vast majority of criminal cases are finalised. Guilty pleas have become the norm, and many of these result fromnegotiations between the prosecutor and the defence. The extent to which the victim is one of the participating parties in plea negotiations however, is a question of law and of practice. Drawing from focus groups and surveys with victims of crime, Victims and Plea Negotiations seeks to privilege victims’ voices and lived experiences of plea negotiations, to present their perspectives on five options for enhanced participation in this legal process. This book appeals to academicsand students in the areas of law, criminology, sociology, victimology and legal studies, those who practice in the criminal justice system generally, those who work with victims, and policy makers.

Textul de pe ultima copertă
“This comprehensive and meticulously documented book fills a serious gap in available research on victim participation in plea bargaining. It provides a wide-ranging review and analysis including stakeholders’ perspectives and related laws from Australia, New Zealand, the US and the UK. Its most significant contribution is the vivid account of victims’ secondary victimization as they navigate this legal institution, prosecutors’ approaches to victims and the disempowering impact that plea bargaining decision-making processes and outcomes have on victims.”
- Professor Edna Erez, Professor of Criminology, Law, and Justice, University of Illinois at Chicago
“Plea bargaining is the black box of criminal justice decision-making, hidden from the public and victims. In this important study of victims’ reactions to plea bargaining, Freiberg and Flynn expertly prize open the plea bargaining box for victims by asking them about their experiences. Criminal justicesystems worldwide have allowed efficiency to become their super paradigm. This book is a timely reminder about the importance of recognizing that victims are the proxy for the communities they serve and protect.”
- Professor Kathy Laster, Director, Sir Zelman Cowen Centre, Professor of Law, Victoria University, Melbourne, Australia
