The South African sentencing system faces certain problems. There is a perception that like cases are not being treated alike; that sentencers do not give enough weight to certain serious offences; that South African restorative alternatives are not being provided for offenders being sent to prison for less serious offences; that sufficient attention is not being paid to the concerns of victims of crime; and that, largely because of overcrowding, sentenced prisoners are being released too readily. The Commission has accepted that there is substance to this criticism of the sentencing system and proposes a framework that in its view can remedy these problems to the greatest extent possible.

Public outcries and political platforms based on misinformation and misconceptions about the criminal justice system and current sentencing practice occur all too often in democratic societies. Penal Populism, Sentencing Councils and Sentencing Policy attempts to address this problem by bringing together important contributions from a number of distinguished experts in the field. Penal Populism presents theoretical perspectives on the role of the public in the development of sentencing policy. It places particular emphasis on the emerging role of sentencing commissions, advisory councils or panels in a number of English speaking countries: Australia, New Zealand, the United States, the United Kingdom, Scotland and South Africa. The book explains, expands and develops the existing literature that looks at public attitudes to justice and the role that the 'public' can play in influencing policy. Written in a scholarly yet accessible style, Penal Populism asks the critical questions: should 'public opinion', or preferably, 'public judgment' be relevant to court decision-making, to institutional decision-making and to the political process? And if so, how?

Derived from the renowned multi-volume International Encyclopaedia of Laws, this book provides a practical analysis of criminal law in South Africa. An introduction presents the necessary background information about the framework and sources of the criminal justice system, and then proceeds to a detailed examination of the grounds for criminal liability, the justification of criminal offences, the defences that diminish or excuse criminal liability, the classification of criminal offences, and the sanctions system. Coverage of criminal procedure focuses on the organization of investigations, pre-trial proceedings, trial stage, and legal remedies. A final part describes the execution of sentences and orders, the prison system, and the extinction of custodial sanctions or sentences. Its succinct yet scholarly nature, as well as the practical quality of the information it provides, make this book a valuable resource for criminal lawyers, prosecutors, law enforcement officers, and criminal court judges handling cases connected with South Africa. Academics and researchers, as well as the various international organizations in the field, will welcome this very useful guide, and will appreciate its value in the study of comparative criminal law.

This text reflects the need of criminal justice practitioners who advise sentencers and offenders to have ready access to the law of sentencing and, in particular, to the approach of the Court of Appeal in weighing an offender's culpability in the light of aggravating and mitigating features of the crime in question. The first of two books on sentencing law, principles and practice, Specific Offences details all the common offences likely to be encountered by pre-sentence report writers, from arson to unlawful sexual intercourse, identifying the statutory powers of punishment, the guideline judgments, illustrations of recent judicial approaches to offence analysis, relevant Magistrates' Association guidance, etc. The reader is guided in assessing the seriousness in any particular case, together with the factors contributing to the type and length of sentence. A special chapter explains the kind of factors that can count as personal mitigation.
