Download or read book Criminal Justice Systems in Europe The Netherlands written by Peter J P Tak and published by Martinus Nijhoff Publishers. This book was released on 2023-09-20 with total page 64 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Dutch criminal justice system has, for some time, been famous for its mildness. This mildness, which has been reflected for example in a strikingly low prison rate has both impressed and shocked foreign criminal law scholars and criminal justice officials. This traditional mildness is now at stake. Crime has increased considerably and so has the prison rate. Major changes have taken place in Dutch society, and these require a new criminal justice policy. In 1985 the Minister of Justice submitted to the Parliament a new policy plan called Society and Crime, and a policy plan called Law in Motion was published in 1990. These new criminal policy plans propose a step-by-step approach in order to raise the level of criminal law enforcement and to intensify crime prevention. The statutory powers of the police to investigate organized crime will be expanded, the efficiency of the prosecution service will be improved, the capacity of prisons will be increased, and crime prevention programmes will be intensified. Whether the relative mildness of the Dutch criminal justice system will be maintained in the future or not, is a difficult question to answer. However, since the mildness is built into the system itself (as is demonstrated in this criminal justice profile) it is most probable that this mildness will be at least partly preserved in the future as well.

Download or read book The Reform of the Dutch Code of Criminal Procedure in Comparative Perspective written by M.S. Groenhuijsen and published by Martinus Nijhoff Publishers. This book was released on 2012-09-28 with total page 236 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During the last decades of the 20th century, a consensus has emerged that the Dutch Code of Criminal Procedure (CCP), which had entered into force in 1926, had become dysfunctional in connection with both main objectives of criminal procedure. The research project ‘Strafvordering 2001’ aimed at answering the question how a CCP would look which meets contemporary needs and corresponds to state of the art doctrinal views, and is coherent in the sense that it offers a systematic criminal procedure approach. The Dutch government responded to the research findings by means of the introduction of several legislative acts. The contributions in this book discuss the question of whether the legislator has succeeded in improving the law of criminal procedure.

Download or read book Introduction to Dutch Law written by Larissa van den Herik and published by Kluwer Law International. This book was released on 2022-01-27 with total page 696 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A standard legal resource since its first edition in 1978, this matchless book has proven itself the ideal overview of Dutch law for foreign lawyers. This Sixth Edition fully updates its systematic description of the legal sources, institutions, and concepts in all major fields of law. Recent developments covered include the progressive implementation of standards set by international conventions, the reorganization of the judiciary, the statute on environmental law, and the (re)codification of private international law. The continuing influence of European law is evident in many fields, perhaps most notably in family law. The various chapters are written by experts - scholars and lawyers - in particular fields, and provide an authoritative overview of each field. The historical sources of Dutch law are discussed, as well as Dutch legal culture, legal philosophy, judicial organization, legal education, and the legal profession. These chapters are followed by introductions to essential issues of private and public law and labour law. The last chapter examines financial law. The only resource of its kind available, this book is unmatched as a thorough guide to further research. It offers practitioners, particularly foreign lawyers, a quick and reliable way into any area of Dutch law that they may be required to research. It will also be of great value to comparatists (especially those studying the influence of European law on national legal systems), scholars, and students. Like previous editions, the Sixth Edition has been prepared under the auspices of the Netherlands Comparative Law Association.

Download or read book Democracy in the Courts written by Marijke Malsch and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-05-13 with total page 248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Democracy in the Courts examines lay participation in the administration of justice and how it reflects certain democratic principles. An international comparative perspective is taken for exploring how lay people are involved in the trial of criminal cases in European countries and how this impacts on their perspectives of the national legal systems. Comparisons between countries are made regarding how and to what extent lay participation takes place and the relation between lay participation and the legal system's legitimacy is analyzed. Presenting the results of interviews with both professional judges and lay participants in a number of European countries regarding their views on the involvement of lay people in the legal system, this book explores the ways in which judges and lay people interact while trying cases, examining the characteristics of both professional and lay judging of cases. Providing an important analysis of practice, this book will be of interest to academics, legal scholars and practitioners alike.
Download or read book Dutch Prisons written by Miranda Boone and published by Boom Juridische. This book was released on 2007 with total page 334 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the international penitentiary world, the Dutch prison system has long been seen as a shining example. In the last decades, however, prison provisions were demolished rapidly. In 30 years, the prison rate increased fivefold which is, in relative numbers, comparable to the growth in the United States. This increase in numbers came together with substantial changes to typical aspects of the Dutch prison system - the legal position of detainees, rehabilitation efforts, and medical care. This volume presents an overview of these changes in different sectors of the prison system including adults, youth, the mentally disturbed, alien detainees, and persistent offenders. The book provides insight from both inside as well as outside the system and presents an international perspective as well.
