Crime and punishment in late 20th century Scotland: Judicial sensibilities

Research output: Contribution to journalArticlepeer-review

Abstract / Description of output

This paper is concerned with judicial narratives of a personal kind; the
‘stories, words and talk’ (Cohen, 1983) of conversation with judges about
crime, punishment and the experience of judging. Judicial narratives of other
kinds abound, particularly the cultural and societal sort - our repertoire of
stories about judges - but the life world of the judge has drawn remarkably
little attention from public and academic commentators alike.
