Reshaping probation and prisons

Angebote / Angebote:

The UK government has embarked on a program of radical reform for the probation and prison services. A National Offender Management Service (NOMS) is being set up with the aim to make the two services work more effectively together, and to promote private sector involvement in corrections work. Reshaping Probation and Prisons comprises six papers that take a critical look at the different aspects of the NOMS proposals, at a time when the government is still working out the detail of its reforms. No other academic publication has scrutinized the NOMS proposals so closely. The contributors to this book are leading experts on probation and criminal justice and they have assembled an authoritative critique of a set proposals that could go badly wrong. Reshaping Probation and Prisons identifies the risks attached to NOMS, assesses the prospects of success, and provides ideas for reshaping government plans.
