This collection brings together international experts to present a
comparative analysis of wrongful conviction and criminal procedure.
The volume takes an interdisciplinary approach with authors drawn
from a broad range of backgrounds including law, psychology,
forensics and journalism. All are experts in their field with
direct experience of the investigation of wrongful conviction in
their own countries. Focusing on the main areas of concern in their
own jurisdiction, each author discusses common themes including:
the extent of the problem; the types of cases that feature in
miscarriages of justice; the legal mechanism for the correction of
a wrongful conviction; compensation for the wrongly convicted;
public awareness and concern about the issue generally and in light
of high-profile cases; and the extent to which wrongful conviction
has driven criminal justice reform. The book will be essential
reading for students, researchers and policy-makers interested in
Comparative Law, Criminology and Psychology.
