Why have many victim-centred policy initiatives met with so little
success? How have those initiatives unfolded differently in
different global jurisdictions over different periods of time? This
book aims to address these questions. Building on a major research
project exploring victims' access to justice over time and place,
Victims' Access to Justice considers the potentialities for
victims' participation in criminal justice systems and in victim
programmes both in historical and comparative context. It considers
a range of topics: ways of identifying and accommodating victims'
needs and senses of justice; the impacts for criminal justice
systems of seeking to accommodate these; and the ways in which
adversarial criminal justice systems, in particular, may enable or
inhibit victim participation. This is essential reading for all
those engaged in understanding and working with victims of crime.
