Punishment Under Pressure: The Probation Service in the Inner City

by Bob Broad and R. A. Broad

Arguing that while certain aspects of the probation service community developments are suitable for addressing social problems in inner city areas, progressive probation practices retain innovatory status. The book examines the construction and presentation of Social Inquiry Reports, anti-racisim, group work, probation clients and unemployment, the disproportionate number of black people in custodial institutions and inter-agency work.
