This book examines how major but often under-scrutinised legal, social, and technological developments have affected the transparency and accountability of the criminal justice process. Drawing on empirical and evaluative studies, as well as their own research experiences, the authors explore key legal policy issues such as equality of access, remote and virtual courts, justice system data management, and the roles of public and media observers. Highlighting the implications of recent changes for access to justice, offender rehabilitation, and public access to information, the book proposes a framework for open justice which prioritises public legal education and justice system accountability.

This unique work of evidence scholarship details the development of marketised forensic science provision in the UK. Exploring the impact that public policy developments have had upon the sector, it delves into the re-structuring of both the governance and delivery of expert scientific evidence.Using first-hand accounts drawn from empirical research, this study analyses the practices and perspectives of forensic experts and criminal justice personnel, with a particular focus on the influence of standardisation, expertise, and regulation on scientific method. Expanding our understanding of the ways in which forensic scientists have responded to policy-driven structural changes, the author highlights the effects of resulting adaptations.Challenging subsisting accounts of law's deference to expert knowledge, this work uncovers the normative and conceptual underpinnings of law and science, to provide an innovative account of the practice of case construction. Using comparative case-study methods, the study highlights the need for a genuine theoretical engagement between the two domains and supports this endeavour with a range of empirically informed discussions, and detailed theoretical analyses. Revisiting the landmark cases, relevant legislative provisions, and government reports, the study offers a trenchant analysis of law's mutable understandings of expertise and scientific method. Marketisation and Forensic Science Provision in England and Wales thus lays the foundations for a more rational and systematic approach to the consumption of expert evidence.

Die Strafrechtler uberlassen es nicht der (kritischen) Kriminologie, nach Strukturen und Motiven von Strafgesetzgebung und Strafrechtsanwendung in Wirtschaftsstrafsachen zu suchen. Sie sehen - wofur die traditionelle Interpretation des Rechts eigentlich keine Handhabe bietet -, dass vieles Ratselhafte oder jedenfalls schwer zu Erklarende bei Staatsanwaltschaften und Gerichten im Umgang mit den Beschuldigten seinen Ursprung in unreflektierten Vorverstandnissen und institutionellen Dynamiken hat.Das Hauptbeispiel ist die Flucht in die abstrakten Gefahrdungstatbestande. Da sie auf das Merkmal eines eingetretenen Schadens - auch in Gestalt konkreter Gefahrdungen - verzichten und die generelle Eignung eines Verhaltens, einen Schaden herbeizufuhren, genugen lassen, reduziert sich die Prufungspflicht der Justiz auf die Frage nach verletzten Pflichten. Sie kann man muhelos in einem Katalog zusammenstellen, weil es auf Folgenkalkulation nicht ankommt. Diese fordert vielmehr, dass man bei den Konkretisierungen der Definitionen das Verhaltnis von Zuschreibung und Zurechnung klart.Die Beitrage setzen sich mit dieser Problematik sowohl grundsatzlich wie im Detail auseinander, unter besonderer Berucksichtigung von Opfermitverantwortung einerseits, Anlageberatung und exzessiver Risikoubernahme andererseits. Der Band schliet mit der Diskussion uber den Vorschlag fur ein Unternehmensstrafrecht.
