This comprehensive book delves into the intricate process of assessing defendants within the criminal justice system, encompassing a wide range of decision-makers such as judges, lawyers, probation officers, parole board members, and those involved in restorative justice. It explores the prevailing attitudes and emotions that these individuals expect from defendants at different stages of the legal proceedings. The book argues that defendants are generally expected to exhibit a willingness to accept guilt and take individual responsibility for their actions, accompanied by a display of appropriate emotions, ideally including genuine remorse.
The significance of these expressions of individual responsibility and remorse is examined in depth, as they hold immense importance for decision-makers and the broader state apparatus. Contributors from diverse geographical regions contribute their insights, offering a rich tapestry of perspectives and fostering new avenues for comparative research.
By examining the expectations and communication of these attitudes and emotions, the book sheds light on the complex dynamics of the criminal justice system and its impact on individuals and society. It provides valuable insights for legal professionals, policymakers, and researchers seeking to understand the intricacies of justice and improve the fairness and effectiveness of the criminal justice process.
