Legal Provision in the Rural Environment: Legal Services, Criminal Justice and Welfare Provision in Rural Areas (University of Wales Press - Environment and Countryside Law) - Softcover
Synopsis
This collection of papers examines the role of courts, the police, the legal profession and welfare agencies in the rural environment, with a particular emphasis on the situation in Wales. The papers discuss the distinctive problems which are encountered by such bodies in a rural context, and also the implications for rural areas of a situation in which policy is often determined centrally rather than locally and with the typical problems of urban areas in mind. The book also investigates the concept of rurality in the context of research into the operation of the legal system.

About the Author
Dr Christopher Harding is one of the editors of Legal Provision in the Rural Environment. John Williams is Professor of Law at Aberystwyth University.
Review
“Taking as their starting point the fact that socio-legal research has, to date, been carried out in a markedly urban context Harding and Williams argue, in their introductory chapter, for greater attention to the problems of legal provision in rural areas not only because these problems are worth investigating for their own solution but also because these problems lessons of a more general kind may be drawn from examination of the legal system in a different type of environment. . .Whilst the individual chapters are of interest in themselves, its further value is in drawing attention on a more general level to the problems faced by rural environments and placing them firmly on the intellectual agenda.” –Scottish Law Gazette
