Australian Criminal Justice

This introductory text provides an overview and critical examination of the Australian criminal justice process. It analyzes the influential matters which mould criminal justice, and examines the institutional and administrative features of its operation in Australian jurisdictions. Particular matters covered by the book include the substantive criminal law, trial procedures, the exercise of discretion and the "sites" of power bases underlying all of these. Both procedural justice in the form of written rules and universally recognised rights and protections, and substantive justice in which common sense notions of fairness and equity are dominant, are the subject of detailed discussion.Findlay, Mark is the author of 'Australian Criminal Justice' with ISBN 9780195534870 and ISBN 0195534875.
