Abstract:
In 1976 the Leicestershire Probation Service established a two-tier system for its work in the assessment and supervision of offenders. The first tier, the Court Intake and Assessment Team, prepared Social Enquiry Reports on offenders not known or not currently being supervised by the agency. If the court made a supervision order the case was transferred to the Treatment Teams, the second tier, who carried out the supervision. Previous research had only examined the work of the intake team in isolation. The aim of this thesis was to examine the intake team in the context of the treatment teams

Abstract:
This study focuses on the probation service and the changes that are impacting on this part of the criminal justice system. It develops a theoretically distinctive approach, drawing on the literature of gender and organisations, in order to investigate issues relating to the organisational structures and processes experienced by male and female probation officers in three disparate probation areas in England. The opening two chapters examine the development of the organisation in terms of the hierarchical roles within the service and the gendered distribution of probation officer staff across

Abstract:
The role of developmental and situational factors in offender risk assessment and risk management has been largely ignored. This may be due to the fact that developmental and situational theories mainly focus upon explaining how offenders transition in and out of offending yet provide little information regarding the underlying process of change. Offender narratives, on the other hand, may provide insight into the manner in which offenders interpret and make sense of the world around them that may account for that change.

This thesis examines the probation service in England and Wales as a site of regulation or governance. Firstly, and primarily, the thesis examines the changing approach of the probation service toward the regulation or governance of the offenders which it supervises. Specifically, it explores the contention that the dominant approach to offender governance in the probation service has shifted from one concerned primarily with rehabilitation or 'normalisation', to one which is primarily concerned with the management of risk.

This thesis will be submitted in Probation's centenary year. The Probation Service is an organisation that has undergone a tremendous journey of change and transition since its inception as a morally-underpinned voluntary body whose members sought to save the souls of poor unfortunates appearing before the courts. The thesis provides a critical history of probation practice, examining the development of practice during its 100 years.

Abstract:
As a criminal sanction, community service involves unpaid labor on the part of convicted criminal offenders. Community service was created as an alternative to incarceration for low-level offenders. It now appears, however, that community service is rarely used as a true alternative to prison, but rather as an added condition of probation. The body of research on community service in the United States is modest, so relatively little is known about its characteristics and administration.
