| dc.description | This book is for anyone who is worried about the state of democracy. It is likely to be of particular interest to students and researchers of criminology who are wondering what role their field of inquiry might play in helping to combat the kind of shallow, image-obsessed politics of crime and justice exemplified in the short historical episode recounted above. It is also likely to be of interest to anyone concerned about the adequacy and democratic efficacy of survey-based approaches to capturing ‘public opinion’. These issues were a central focus of mine when, for three years from 2006 to 2009, I was employed as a ‘Knowledge Transfer Partnership Associate’ (KTP Associate) on a three-year programme of research. The research aimed to provide strategic and practical insights into how criminal justice organisations should approach the requirement that they increase ‘public confidence in the criminal justice system’. The final report (Turner et al. 2009) highlighted the failure of existing conceptualisations and measures of public confidence to provide a meaningful way of gauging the extent to which members of the public see the criminal justice system as legitimate and are willing to engage with it. | - |
