The Social World of an English Crown Court is the first
ethnographic study of a Crown Court Centre. It also describes the
origins and early history of a pioneering project to support
victims and prosecution witnesses appearing before the court-the
Witness Support Project. Paul Rock analyses the major divide which
exists in the life of the court between professional insiders and
public outsiders. He describes how this divide created problems for
witnesses and how the project set out to alleviate this. He
provides details of how this division is built into court
architecture, administration, and social relations, and examines
how it stems from the preoccupation of court officials with the
control of knowledge, public order, and emotion.
