Crime, Criminology and Criminal Justice in Scotland

Lesley McAra

University of Edinburgh, UK, lesley.mcara{at}ed.ac.uk

This survey of Scotland reviews: core Scottish criminal justice institutions; statistical trends in crime and punishment over the past 40 years; the history and politics of Scottish criminal justice; and the emergence of a distinctively Scottish criminology. In particular, it highlights the cross-cutting modalities of power and identity that have shaped both institutional and policy development and made strong linkages between knowledge and politics.

Key Words: Civic Culture • Penal Welfarism • Political Capacity-Building • Scotland
