Abstract
The launch of Public Money & Management in
1980 coincided with an important watershed
in criminal justice policy. Up to the late
1970s, criminal justice policy in the UK was
based on a bipartisan consensus around the
crime prevention benefits of increasing
welfare provision and the potential for
rehabilitating offenders. As optimism on both
these counts began to ebb, political debate
on how to tackle crime intensified.
