- W2259199372 abstract "Nearly 1700 are currently in planning or operation in the United States. These specialized, alternative courts form at intersections of criminal justice and social policy. While drug courts comprise an overwhelming majority of these courts, specialized courts also address issues of mental health and domestic violence. These courts, collectively known as courts, share a central principle: endorsement of the use of judicial power to coerce various programs of treatment. The courts represent a dramatic change in the function of the criminal courts, incorporating an experimentalist theory of governance, where evolving standards, continuous monitoring and collaboration replace existing structures. The procedural due process protections accorded to criminal defendants and traditional barriers to the use of coercion are eliminated, as the adversarial process is abandoned in favor of a collaborative endeavor involving the judge, prosecutor, defense attorney, probation officer, treatment provider and defendant. Significantly, the judge becomes part of the treatment team, rendering decisions not based on law or fact, but on a program of clinical treatment. What happens when a judge changes from the traditional role of neutral arbiter to a new role as active participant in an ongoing process? Experimentalist governance offers an attractive and pragmatic solution to vexing social problems; when applied to the criminal justice system, legitimacy becomes critical to both the acceptance and the success of institutional reform. This paper describes the problem-solving court model, outlines the experimentalist features, and notes the similarities between current models and original juvenile courts one hundred years ago. The legitimacy challenges faced by the juvenile courts forecast impending difficulty for the courts, and an analysis of the legitimacy of courts questions the long-term viability of the current problem solving mutation of the criminal courts. Finally, a case study of a recently implemented court suggests that the experimentalist structure of these courts can, and should, be utilized to enhance the legitimacy of the courts." @default.
