Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The first systematic account of criminal justice in self-governed Wales. Since Wales gained self-governance from the United Kingdom in 1998, its incarceration rate has surpassed any other nation in western Europe. The Welsh Criminal Justice System asks whether these two events are related. Drawing on archival research and in-depth interviews, this first survey of the Welsh criminal justice system represents a new beginning for policy research in Wales and an important intervention in policy debates in Cardiff and London.
