商品簡介
商品簡介
Our justice system, once the envy of the world, is in a state of cardiac arrest. Crime has risen to record levels; serious violence, including knife crime, drug-related behaviour and gang activity are out of control. Social media and the internet are fuelling criminal activity by providing places for criminals to operate and influence young people.
In this book one of the UK’s leading criminal defence barristers, Chris Daw QC, provides an insider’s view of the justice system – complete with fascinating real-life accounts – and proposes radical solutions to some of the biggest challenges it now faces.
After a brief introduction and outline of the history of justice in the UK and abroad, Chris presents his manifesto for the twenty-first century: he examines the use of prisons, both in the UK and the US on Alabama's 'Death Row'; he argues passionately for the legalization of drugs to destroy the criminal networks who traffic in their supply; he speaks to young people who are the perpetrators and victims of crime, delving into the epidemic of youth knife crime and huge increase in reports of university rape cases, and he examines the role of the internet in facilitating crime and what can be done to police it. Finally, he asks us to move beyond the binary of ‘good and evil’, to adopt a more pragmatic and humane approach to justice – one that could allow Britain to have the lowest crime rate on Earth.
