Conclusions & Considerations for the Future of Rape Justice. 330 $aIn light of ongoing concerns about the treatment of survivors, Rape Trials in England and Wales critically examines court responses to rape and sexual assault. Using new data from an in-depth observational study of rape trials, this book asks why attempts to improve survivor experiences at court have not been fully effective. In doing so, Smith identifies deep-rooted barriers to survivor justice and, crucially, introduces potential avenues for more effective reform. This book provides a comprehensive examination of the practicalities of court, use of rape myths and sexual history evidence, underlying principles of adversarial justice and the impact of inequalities embedded within English and Welsh legal culture. This engaging and highly significant study is essential reading for anyone seeking to understand the criminal courts and their responses to rape, including practitioners and students of criminology, sociology, and law. . 606 $aVictimology 606 $aTrials 606 $aSex and law 606 $aCriminal justice, Administration of 606 $aCritical criminology 606 $aSex crimes 606 $aVictimology$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/1B1040 606 $aJuries and Criminal Trials$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/1BB040 606 $aGender, Sexuality and Law$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/1BB030 606 $aCriminal Justice$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/1BB010 606 $aEthnicity, Class, Gender and Crime$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/1B1030 606 $aSexual Offending$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/1BG020 615 0$aVictimology. 615 0$aTrials. 615 0$aSex and law. 615 0$aCriminal justice, Administration of. 615 0$aCritical criminology. 615 0$aSex crimes. 615 14$aVictimology. 615 24$aJuries and Criminal Trials. 615 24$aGender, Sexuality and Law. 615 24$aCriminal Justice. 615 24$aEthnicity, Class, Gender and Crime. 615 24$aSexual Offending. 676 $a364.1532097509034 700 $aSmith$b Olivia$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0911377 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910299861503321 996 $aRape Trials in England and Wales$92040969 997 $aUNINA
