History of Victims of Crime
How they Reclaimed their Rights
«
‘By his thought-provoking historical assessment of victim rights in Ireland, Strauss-Walsh provides an innovative analysis of the empowerment of crime victims in the modern period. The removal and relocation of victims in criminal law and procedure continues to define the contours of justice in the modern trial context, making A History of Victims of Crime a must read for anyone interested in the socio-legal context of victim rights law reform.’
Professor Tyrone Kirchengast, Associate Professor of Criminal Law, University of Sydney Law School, University of Sydney, Australia
‘Tracing the emergence of a new legal culture of inclusion in regard to victims in the Irish criminal process, Strauss-Walsh provides fascinating historical and sociological context. This book is a wonderful addition to our understanding of the fall and rise of the victim in criminal proceedings in Ireland.’
Professor Yvonne Daly, Full Professor of Criminal Law and Evidence, School of Law and Government, Dublin City University, Ireland
