Analysing the UK setting where the public protection debate has been ‘weaponised’ to create public fear and ‘with us or against us’ positions, authors Mike Nash and Andy Williams chronicle how this form of politics has now extended into a range of policy areas, including Brexit. Emphasising the political context of the evolution of public protection policy over time, the chapters investigate different types of dangerous criminal behaviour, public protection agencies and responses to panic and failure, providing a critical analysis of the use of risk to reshape and reframe public protection policy and practice.
Responding to the need for an updated discussion on public protection and criminal justice legislation that links the past to the present, Politics and Public Protection closely examines the interplay between politics and extreme criminal justice measures.
Mike Nash was previously Head of Department and Professor of Criminology at the SSCJ, University of Portsmouth. As a former senior probation officer, he has worked in prisons, as well as on the early development of what were to become the multi-agency public protection arrangements (MAPPA). Andy Williams is Principal Lecturer in Criminology and Criminal Justice at SCCJ, University of Portsmouth. He has developed academic courses and practitioner training in understanding risk and dangerousness for violent and sexual offenders and has undertaken numerous evaluations of public protection systems.
