This book offers a critical analysis of the origins, theories and philosophy of community justice within the UK and the employment of practices that place the ‘community’ at the heart of responding to offending behaviour.
Community justice both as a practice and as a subject of criminological concern has become an issue of increasing significance over the past few years. While ideas and initiatives about such matters as community policing have been commonplace for several decades, the more synoptic concept of community justice has become a key part of government policy in the 21st century for both the Labour and Coalition administrations. Until now, most books on community justice have focused exclusively on the US.

Doing Justice in the Community fills this gap and brings together an analysis of the origins, theories and practices of community justice within the UK. The book provides a timely opportunity to engage critically with the practice and philosophy of community justice, and thereby to better understand the consequences for crime, control and society of employing approaches that place the ‘community’ at the heart of responding to offending behaviour.
