* Backed by the Magistrates' Association * Coincides with the 650th
anniversary of JPs. * Essential reading for criminal justice
practitioners. * The key text at a critical time for government and
the courts. * Supported by a substantial media campaign. * A
celebratory volume and collection piece. After 650 years justices
of the peace find themselves at a crossroads. This book looks at
the role of one of the UK's oldest institutions in a rapidly
changing world. Well-informed, thought-provoking and published at a
critical time when government is looking to find ever more
efficient and cost-effective ways to deliver justice, this book by
leading commentators from the courts, universities, the media and
the magistracy itself sets examines the options for the future. It
looks at economic and other pressures as well as demands for new
kinds of community justice and changing ideas about public and
voluntary service. It's sheer breadth, expertise and diversity of
views means it will be in demand across the criminal justice system
as the best word on the subject. What is the modern-day role of the
magistracy and how might it better serve the citizen's to whom it
ultimately belongs? From an age-old institution as a bastion of
democracy to the idea that there should be fresh avenues of
engagement and a greater sense of a fairness and transparency, each
of the distinguished contributors' chapter is valuable within what
is a highly innovative and readable work. With a Foreword by Lord
Dholakia.
