The new trend in problem-solving courts-specialized courts utilized
to address crimes not adequately addressed by the standard criminal
justice system-is examined in this thorough and insight-filled
book. At least since the late 1980s, with the development of the
first drug court in Dade County, Florida, the justice system has
undergone what some believe is a revolution-the movement toward
problem-solving courts. Problem-Solving Courts: Justice for the
Twenty-First Century? provides a concise, thorough,
well-documented, and balanced foundation for anyone interested in
understanding this phenomenon. Detailing the "promise and potential
perils" of problem-solving courts, the authors represented here
examine the development of the problem-solving court movement, the
rationale for the courts, the approaches they take, and their
anticipated benefits and potential pitfalls. Using case examples
and looking at various types of problem-solving courts, the book
offers "foundational" information about the specific types of
problem-solving courts, their goals and philosophies, their
organization and operation, their variation in structure and
procedures, and the extensiveness of the court. It draws
conclusions about the relative merits or disadvantages of such
courts and considers prospects for the future.
