There is also the complicating factor that drugs are used for sociological and...

ISBN: 9780195101744 / Angielski / Twarda / 448 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Plea bargaining is one of the most striking features of American courts.

Yet, as Mary Vogel argues in this pathbreaking history, plea bargaining's roots are deeper and more distinctly American than is commonly supposed. During the Age of Jackson, amidst...
