JUSTICE FOR VICTIMS OF CRIME - ALBIN DEARING GE...

This book analyses the rights of crime victims within a human rights paradigm  and describes
the inconsistencies resulting from attempts to introduce the procedural rights of victims
within a criminal justice system that views crime as a matter between the state and the
offender  and not as one involving the victim. To remedy this problem  the book calls for
abandoning the concept of crime as an infringement of a state¿s criminal laws and instead
reinterpreting it as a violation of human rights. The state¿s right to punish the offender
would then be replaced by the rights of victims to see those responsible for violating their
human rights convicted and punished and by the rights of offenders to be treated as accountable
agents.
