Details

Australian Courts: Challenges, Controversies and Change brings together scholars and practitioners in a comprehensive and unique exploration of courts in Australia. It identifies existing controversies and challenges associated with Australian courts, and proposes a suite of reforms within various Australian jurisdictions. As the first comprehensive edited collection to canvas the diversity of courts in Australia, this book provides a critical analysis of contemporary issues, debates and reforms. Adopting an interdisciplinary approach, it considers courts across state, territory and national jurisdictions, including the coroners court, family court, criminal, civil court, Indigenous sentencing courts and problem-solving courts. It also considers an array of issues, such as the relationships between parliaments and the courts, the place of victims, the impacts of justice delayed, and the role of the media - all matters which arise for court users and practitioners in different court settings.
