This book provides a comparative analysis of the process of breach
across ten different European jurisdictions by identifying and
elaborating a number of key analytical themes through which the
different systems can be compared and evaluated. It is informed by
and hopes to advance the research activities of the COST Action
IS1106 on Offender Supervision in Europe, particularly the Action's
work on developing new comparative methodologies to examine the
process of decision-making involved in the breaching of offenders
for non-compliance. This volume consists of country chapters and
thematic chapters. Analyses are based on exhaustive reviews of the
literature available in each jurisdiction as well as the results of
an empirical pilot study to provide a unique and valuable insight
into current practice as well as enhancing our understanding of the
contingencies and vagaries of the processes of breach as they exist
in both civil and common law European jurisdictions. The key themes
and emerging concerns that are explored include: the roles and
responsibilities of the different actors involved in the breach
process; the degree and nature of discretion exercised by
decision-makers; and legitimacy, due process and procedural
requirements of breach processes both from a pan-European and from
a comparative perspective. This book will be of interest to
criminal lawyers and criminologists, policy makers, criminal
justice practitioners, probation workers and students of criminal
justice studies across Europe. Comparative insight into the
decision-making processes of breach across Europe will also be of
interest to American, Canadian and Australian audiences seeking
comparisons with their own systems.
