"Transforming Criminal Policy explores 'Spheres of Influence in the USA, The Netherlands and England and Wales during the 1980s', focusing on the activities of three strategically placed individuals: James Q. Wilson, Dato Steenhuis and David Faulkner. Whilst the policy-making process cannot be determined by referenda, it is too important to be left exclusively to experts. In a central argument the author insists on the need for an integrated criminal policy as a means of protecting those values which are fundamental to a liberal democracy. A way forward is outlined which seeks to overcome 'narrow and compartmentalised ways of thinking about crime and what to do about it'."--Jacket.
