Description

The Irish criminal justice system is vast, heavily regulated, and intensely litigated.

In the last ten years alone, there has been a plethora of new legislation introduced, significantly impacting on the operation of the system.

Within the criminal process, fundamental human rights and core interests of the community and society as a whole come into sharp conflict.

As an area of study, criminal justice and procedure is complex, challenging, and stimulating.

This book provides an accessible yet critical analysis of key themes and stages in the Irish criminal process.

It begins with an overview of the theoretical framework of the process and then analyzes key issues from initial arrest to sentence and post-sentencing appeals.

Controversial questions - such as police powers, the role of the prosecutor, victims' rights, juvenile justice, and miscarriages of justice - are also addressed in a comprehensive and engaging manner.

Irish Criminal Justice: Theory, Process and Procedure incorporates up-to-date developments in domestic legislation and case-law, while integrating the latest developments in human rights law, as they affect the area.

The book will be essential for all students of criminal justice and procedure, at both undergraduate and postgraduate levels.

As a comprehensive account of the Irish criminal process, it will also be a useful resource for practitioners in the area.
