Description

Explore the complex processes behind judicial sentencing in Decisions to Imprison: Court Decision-Making Inside and Outside the Law. Published by Routledge as part of the New Advances in Crime and Social Harm series, this book provides a deep look into the formal and informal norms that drive imprisonment decisions. Author Rasmus Wandall utilizes a combination of quantitative and qualitative research methods based on studies conducted in Denmark. The text examines how courtroom participants organize decision-making processes to move beyond formal legal frameworks while maintaining legal validity and staying within the boundaries of the law. By applying Niklas Luhm's theory of law's operational closure, the work offers a unique perspective on how sentencing procedures function in real-world settings. This academic resource is essential for students, legal professionals, and researchers interested in the sociological and legal mechanics of the courtroom. It provides a detailed investigation into how ideologies and norms influence the way justice is administered and how legal systems maintain their operational integrity.
