This book examines the impact and implications of the relationship
between risk and criminal justice in advanced liberal democracies,
in the context of the 'revolt against uncertainty' which has
underpinned the rise of populist politics across these societies in
recent years. It asks what impact the demands for more certainty
and security, and the insistence that national identity be
reasserted, will have on criminal law and penal policy. Drawing
upon contributions made at a symposium held at Victoria University
of Wellington, New Zealand in November 2018, this edited collection
also discusses the way in which risk has come to inform sentencing
practices, broader criminal justice processes and the critical
issues associated with this. It also examines the growth and making
of new 'risky populations' and the harnessing of risk-prevention
logics, techniques and mechanisms which have inflated the influence
of risk on criminal justice.
