| dc.description.notes | This article looks at a US study that examines state action in a specialised court in domestic violence to see if specialised courts are about social control or social change. It considers the roles of social control and social change within domestic violence courts as having implications for critical theories of technocratic justice, for the battered women’s movement and also for democratic theories of the state. According to social control theories of the state, theories of technocractic or rationalised justice, law is about efficiency and speed. However, specialised courts appear to take a social problem approach to crime. A literature overview on the different theoretical approaches is provided. | en |
