Book excerpt: Institutional abuse of children: Legal remedies and redress in Australia examines the recently amended 'common law' framework. These reforms include removal of limitation periods, reversal of the onus of proof, extending vicarious liability to persons akin to employees, requiring institutions to identify a proper defendant when necessary, and permitting some earlier settlements and judgements to be revisited. The unique fixed term National Redress Scheme for historic child sexual abuse in institutional settings is also examined, in the context of the underlying policy to offer an alternate redress pathway which aims to be more flexible, less formal, faster, cheaper, and involving less trauma and conflict for survivors. As the first detailed analysis of the new legal framework relating to compensation and redress for child sexual abuse in Australia, this book makes an original contribution to knowledge and understanding of the law in this complex area, which continues to develop at a rapid pace as additional legislation is enacted across Australia and as the courts begin to construe these new legislative provisions. Features ¿ Analyses the new legal framework governing claims for compensation and redress arising out of sexual abuse of children in institutional settings in Australia ¿ Examines the relationship between the National Redress Scheme and civil claims ¿ Provides a practical understanding of how to work through the intersecting laws and redress systems to best advise clients

Book excerpt: This handbook engages key debates in Australian and New Zealand criminology over the last 50 years. In six sections, containing 56 original chapters, leading researchers and practitioners investigate topics such as the history of criminology; crime and justice data; law reform; gangs; youth crime; violent, white collar and rural crime; cybercrime; terrorism; sentencing; Indigenous courts; child witnesses and children of prisoners; police complaints processes; gun laws; alcohol policies; and criminal profiling. Key sections highlight criminological theory and, crucially, Indigenous issues and perspectives on criminal justice. Contributors examine the implications of past and current trends in official data collection, crime policy, and academic investigation to build up an understanding of under-researched and emerging problem areas for future research. An authoritative and comprehensive text, this handbook constitutes a long-awaited and necessary resource for dedicated academics, public policy analysts, and university students.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Child Sexual Abuse Reported by Adult Survivors is a wide-ranging and timely critical history and analysis of legal responses to ‘historical’ or ‘non-recent’ child sexual abuse (NRCSA) in England and Wales, Ireland and Australia, each of which represents an evolving and progressive approach to this important and complex issue. The book examines the emergence of NRCSA as a distinctive social, political and legal phenomenon in each country and explores the legal responses developed to address its unprecedented challenges. Courts and parliaments in each country have reformed existing doctrine and practice and have created new ways of holding state and private actors accountable and new ways of addressing survivors’ injuries. Criminal law, tort law, public inquiries and state reparations have all been to the forefront of these new legal responses, which have transformed law’s engagement with NRCSA survivors and understandings of justice itself. However, despite this undeniable progress, the book identifies ways in which the legal responses developed in each country fail to deliver accountability and recognition to NRCSA survivors and argues that such failures betray the law’s inherent ambivalence to delivering justice for these survivors. Creating new insights into legal responses to this complex contemporary legal, social and political problem, this book will be of great interest to academic lawyers, political scientists and historians, as well as those working on related topics in criminology, sociology, social policy, cultural studies and gender studies.
