Bringing together philosophical, psychological and sociological accounts of blame, this is the first detailed criminological account of the role of blame. The authors present a novel study of the legal process of blame attribution, set in the context of criminalisation as a social and political process.Item Open Access The Continuing Chronology of Confusion: Crime Prevention, Welfare and the Why of Youth Justice(SAGE, 2018-07-30) Antonopoulos, Irene; Dingwall, Gavin; Hillier, TimInternational human rights law states that child well-being must be paramount. The aims of the Youth Justice System in England and Wales should reflect this, but the present system fails to do so as its aims are various and lack coherence. This article argues that this incoherence emanates from an apparent conflict between welfare and crime prevention. The authors argue that this dichotomy is false if one recognises that crime will only be prevented by prioritising the welfare and well-being of the child offender. Adopting this approach would satisfy international obligations and reduce the risk of offending and re-offending.Item Metadata only Criminal Justice and the Pursuit of Truth(Bristol University Press, 2021-06-16) Dingwall, Gavin; Hillier, TimCan the criminal justice system achieve justice based on its ability to determine the truth? Drawing on a variety of disciplinary and interdisciplinary perspectives, this book investigates the concept of truth - its complexities and nuances - and scrutinizes how well the criminal justice process facilitates truth-finding. From allegation to sentencing, the chapters take the reader on a journey through the criminal justice system, exposing the marginalization of truth-finding in favour of other jurisprudential or systemic values, such as expediency, procedural fairness and the presumption of innocence. This important work bridges the gap between what people expect from the criminal justice system and what it can legitimately deliver.Item Metadata only A crisis of legitimacy : conflicting notions of justice in responding to war crimes.(2011) Dingwall, Gavin; Hillier, TimItem Metadata only Ethics first: Reflections on the role of research ethics at the initial stages of an investigation into taxi drivers' experiences of crime.(A B Academic Publishers, 2009) Denscombe, Martyn; Dingwall, Gavin; Hillier, TimItem Metadata only International Criminal Tribunals and their penal philosophies.(2007) Hillier, Tim; Dingwall, GavinItem Metadata only Researching taxi drivers' experiences of crime : some issues of ethics and methodology.(2007) Dingwall, Gavin; Denscombe, Martyn; Hillier, Tim
