Preview The Victim in Criminal Law and Justice

Description:
Utilizing Foucault's genealogical method, this book traces the history and development of the victim from feudal law, arguing that the historical power of the victim to police, prosecute, and punish offenders significantly informed the development of the modern criminal law and justice system. Leading to the repositioning of the victim into the twenty-first century, this book advocates the victim as an agent of change, presenting a new perspective for the relevance of the victim in today's justice system.
