Crime and Justice, Volume 35
Crime and Justice in the Netherlands
Since 1979, the Crime and Justice series has presented international crime-related research to enrich the work of sociologists, psychologists, criminal lawyers, justice scholars, and political scientists. The eleven essays in Volume 35 provide the first English-language survey of the Dutch criminal justice system, which has been the basis for many important international research initiatives, including many in the United States. Topics covered include Dutch tolerance of drugs, prostitution, and euthanasia; organized crime in the Netherlands; sex offenders and sex offending; and juvenile delinquency.
“Why would anyone outside of the Netherlands be interested in a book on crime and justice in the Netherlands? It is hard to imagine that a book introducing American crime and justice to foreigners would have a chapter entitled ‘American Tolerance’ (unless it was a chapter on tolerating high urban homicide rates, high imprisonment rates, and racial profiling). But after reading the chapter on Dutch tolerance in Crime and Justice in the Netherlands, one understands one of the important principles in the manner in which problems such as these have been responded to in the Netherlands. The Dutch approach to issues such as marijuana use or prostitution forces one to examine how similar behaviors are adjudicated in one’s own country.”—Anthony N. Doob, Centre of Criminology, University of Toronto
“Only by knowing about crime and justice in many countries can we truly understand crime and justice in a single country. This volume is the first in a series of ‘jurisdiction-specific’ volumes in the Crime and Justice series. This one makes the case for why we need more.”—Anthony N. Doob, Centre of Criminology, University of Toronto
