Overview
This book explores the impact of three decades of donor-sponsored judicial reform in developing countries, and suggests how future efforts might be improved. Responding to a recently articulated thesis, Linn Hammergren argues that claims of the failure of justice reform programs are vastly overstated and based, like the programs themselves, on overly ambitious expectations as to what can be accomplished. Justice Reform and Development argues that the recommended remedies still do not answer the questions of which objectives can reasonably be pursued and suggests justice reform may be more effective if it is not seen as a problem unique to the developing world.
