This book presents a comprehensive comparative analysis of the
substantive and procedural aspects of compensation for wrongful
convictions among European countries and the USA, as well as the
standard derived from the case law of the European Court of Human
Rights. The collection draws comparative conclusions as to the
similarities and differences between selected jurisdictions and
assesses the effectiveness of the national compensation schemes.
This enables the designing of an optimum model of compensation,
offering accessibility and effectiveness for the victims of
miscarriages of justice and being acceptable for jurisdictions
based on common law, and civil law traditions, as well as
inquisitorial and adversarial types of criminal process. Moreover,
the discussion of the minimum European standard as established in
the case law of the European Court of Human Rights enables us to
identify how the Strasbourg Court can contribute to strengthening
the compensation scheme. The book will be essential reading for
students, academics and policymakers working in the areas of
criminal law and procedure.
