This edited international collection explores the nature and extent of wrongful convictions, as well as examines the systems in place that attempt to exonerate the wrongly convicted. Inspired by two conventions of legal scholars, jurists, lawyers and law students gathered to examine miscarriages of justice as well as the means to address them, in Israel and Canada, this compilation presents work arising from those workshops as well as newer research dedicated to examining this phenomenon. With a thoughtful and evidence- based approach by leading international legal scholars and jurists, this book offers a timely analysis given the burgeoning interest in the study of miscarriages of justice across the globe.

This book is useful for all those interested in studying miscarriages of justice, why they occur and how to eliminate or minimize them, including students and professionals involved in criminology, criminal law and innocence work, as well as comparative criminology and legal scholars.
