This new book is the product of a six-year association between the Willem Pompe Institute for Criminal Law and Criminology at the University of Utrecht and the Law Schools of the University of Wales. It contains eighteen comparative studies on criminal justice in the Netherlands, England, and Wales, concentrating on the central themes of the convergence of the adversarial (British) and inquisitorial (Dutch) systems of justice, and the increasing "Europeanization" of each by an ever-increasing body of European law. It will be of great interest to scholars and practitioners interested in prison law and prison law reform, as well as lawyers and professionals working in the criminal justice system.

Industry Reviews

'there can be no dispute that greater knowledge of other systems is tremendously valuable, and it is to this growing body of knowledge that "Criminal Justice in Europe" makes an important contribution.' This is an important contribution to the literature...The comparative approach has made the authors look at familiar systems with a fresh eye, with the result that new light is cast on existing research.' `'this is a useful book which will be of interest to lawyers and criminologists alike...the book will serve as a standard work on the topic and, one may hope, an impetus to other comparative studies.'' Times Higher Education Supplement 'the volume is a significant addition to the rapidly growing body of comparative work on criminal justice policy, processes and practice... a most useful and rigorous addition to comparative criminology and criminal justice studies.'
