This collection examines law and justice on television in different
countries around the world. It provides a benchmark for further
study of the nature and extent of television coverage of justice in
fictional, reality and documentary forms. It does this by drawing
on empirical work from a range of scholars in different
jurisdictions. Each chapter looks at the raw data of how much
"justice" material viewers were able to access in the multi-channel
world of 2014 looking at three phases: apprehension (police),
adjudication (lawyers), and disposition (prison/punishment). All of
the authors indicate how television developed in their countries.
Some have extensive public service channels mixed with private
media channels. Financing ranges from advertising to programme
sponsorship to licensing arrangements. A few countries have
mixtures of these. Each author also examines how "TV justice" has
developed in their own particular jurisdiction. Readers will find
interesting variations and thought-provoking similarities. There
are a lot of television shows focussed on legal themes that are
imported around the world. The authors analyse these as well. This
book is a must-read for anyone interested in law, popular culture,
TV, or justice and provides an important addition to the literature
due to its grounding in empirical data.
