Substance misuse (including alcohol) and mental health problems
constitute a significant proportion of the work carried out in the
criminal justice system. Approaches to these often intractable
problems have seen the rise of a dominant risk paradigm concerned
with public protection and the use of coercion through court orders
to access treatment. This original and valuable book considers
notions of risk and rehabilitation in detail within the practice of
those court orders, whilst contextualising them within a wider
comparative literature and research base. The efficacy of these
approaches, practice issues and innovations including for example
therapeutic jurisprudence are analysed. Risk and rehabilitation
also includes discussions of the implications for partnership
working and the importance of reconfiguring the nature of
rehabilitative relationships. This is a timely book as probation
practice in the UK and elsewhere moves into a post 'what works'
era, providing opportunities to review the evidence base for
effective interventions.
