- W4297850087 abstract "Within the criminal justice system of England and Wales, the Crown Court is the arena in which serious criminal offences are prosecuted and sentenced. On the basis of ethnographic research findings, this book provides a detailed description of what it is like to attend Crown Court as a victim, witness or defendant; the interplay between the various participants at court; and the extent to which the court process is viewed as legitimate by those involved in it. The findings reveal that appearing at court can be a frightening, upsetting and frustrating experience, and that there are many aspects of the court process that are chaotic and confusing. It is, moreover, a process characterised by profound incongruities: high levels of formality are mixed with informality; the most intimate, personal and often sordid details of individuals’ lives are publicly recounted in elaborate fashion; matters of greatest seriousness are discussed alongside trivialities; and grief and (black) humour coincide. Notwithstanding the inherent and often immense contradictions and difficulties of the court experience, the vast majority of victims, witnesses and defendants alike are highly compliant in the courtroom: they come to court when told to do so (albeit sometimes late); they sit or stand as instructed; they answer the questions posed to them and in the required manner; and they conduct themselves according to the social rules of the courtroom. This ‘reluctant conformity’ of court users appears to reflect an implicit belief in the legitimacy of the court process and its outcomes." @default.
