Explaining attitudes to the justice system in the UK and Europe

The aim of this study was to analyse citizens' attitudes towards the justice system and their determinants, both in the UK and internationally. Based on a literature review and an analysis of existing opinion data, it maps common reasons for dissatisfaction with the justice system in a number of Western countries and summarises long-term trends in this context. The authors are Steven Van de Walle and John W Raine of the School of Public Policy, University of Birmingham.
