Paul Rock's intellectual history over the last fifty years has run parallel to and in conversation with the evolution of the discipline of sociological criminology. His classic journal articles brought together here reflect two of his preoccupations, theoretical and empirical, and form part of what has been, in effect, a running series of comparative ethnographies of government decision-making about the role of the victim in and around the criminal justice system.
