Summary: This book appears to provide a comprehensive and comparative analysis of criminal defence at the investigative stage, which is becoming increasingly important in the criminal justice process. The book draws upon original empirical material from England and Wales and the Netherlands, and contrasts the encountered reality of criminal defence with the model role of a lawyer at the investigative stage derived from European norms. By placing the practice of criminal defence within the broader context of procedural traditions, contemporary criminal justice policies, and lawyers' occupational cultures, the book questions the determinative role of procedural traditions in shaping criminal defence practice at the investigative stage. Given its focus on criminal defence practice and its relevance to contemporary criminal justice policies, the book is likely to be of interest to criminal law and justice practitioners, as well as academics focusing on criminal justice, criminology, socio-legal studies, legal psychology, and human rights.
