Julian V Roberts: Sentencing Guidelines and Commissions, Gebunden

Klappentext

In Sentencing Guidelines and Commissions, Julian V. Roberts, Arie Freiberg, and Rhys Hester synthesize existing literature on commissions and guidelines, identify key issues and problems, and clarify the future of commissions and guidelines since the creation of the first commissions in 1980. Drawing upon almost fifty years of additional developments and accumulated research on guidelines, commissions, and councils, the authors explore the benefits of sentencing councils and commissions and sentencing guidelines. Further, the authors look back to the cumulative experience since the first guidelines were created and propose model regimes for legislatures to consider, based on the American, English, and Australian approaches.
