If you could change one part of the criminal law, what would it be? In the 2nd volume of this successful series, the same question is put to a new selection of leading academics and practitioners.

The first 9 chapters of the collection present their responses in the form of legal reform proposals, with topics ranging across criminal law, criminal justice, and evidence – including corporate liability, consent to bodily harms, prostitution, domestic abuse, drugs, economic crimes, defendant anonymity, appeal court structures, and the procedures of the Criminal Cases Review Commission.

Each chapter is followed by a comment from a different author, providing an additional expert view on each proposal. Finally, the last chapter broadens the debate to discuss criminal law reform in general, exploring the systemic dynamics of centralisation, austerity, and politicisation. The collection highlights and explores the current reform debates that matter most to legal experts, with each chapter making a positive case for change.
