Offending behaviour is one of the most talked about issues in
contemporary society. What can be done to stop people reoffending?
What can be done to help people escape their criminal lifestyles?
This book aims to review and analyse the different ways in which
these questions are addressed in practice, drawing upon the
expertise of academics and practitioners. The book provides a
critical reference text for practitioners, students and researchers
interested in devising the most effective means of addressing
offending behaviour. Its focus is on the actual work undertaken
with offenders, and draws upon generic issues of practice
applicable across the voluntary, community and statutory sectors.
Addressing Offending Behaviour aims to bridge the gap between
practice and research. It explores a wide range of innovative
techniques for offender intervention, along with some of the most
challenging academic theories. It also considers the wider social,
political and legal context in which this work takes place, and
explores the values and bias which operate at both individual and
institutional levels. It will be key reading for both students and
practitioners involved in the fields of criminology and criminal
justice, law, policing, probation, prisons, youth justice and
social work.
