The probation service in particular has undergone radical changes in relation to professional training, roles and delivery of services, but now operates within a mosaic of a number of inter-agency initiatives. This book provides a critical appreciation of community justice, its origin and direction, and examines debates on the ways in which the trend towards community justice is changing the criminal justice system. At the same time it looks at the inter-agency character of intervention and the developing idea of end-to-end offender management, and it familiarizes the reader with a number of more specialist areas, such as hate crime, mental illness, substance abuse, and victims. |
