 About CCLCV
One of the convincing ways to respond to the ever-evolving
criminal justice system is through devising effective public
policy tools in conjunction with the objectives of the state.
Once public policy tools are crafted, in consonance with the
theoretical frameworks, facts and figures governing the
changing nature of crimes and punishment, a dynamic
criminal justice system is supposed to emerge. The society’s
will, thus, gets reshaped into a policy document through an
executive action. This policy will then be converted into laws,
which are implemented by the executive. These laws will
undergo various interpretations and will eventually lead to an
overhaul of the earlier laws, effected through a renewed public
policy document. Criminal law, criminology and victimology
are, therefore, intricately related; every criminal law is, after
all, an extension of a state’s urge to promote certain policies
(governing crimes and punishment) that the society recognizes
and endorses. In the Indian perspective, criminology and
victimology experts always try to heed to the changing
dynamics of the criminal law system. Various policy
recommendations regarding prison reforms, criminal
procedure, due process, etc., are made in light of important
developments and court decisions in the field of criminal law.
Keeping in view the inseparable relationship between
Criminal law, Criminology and Victimology, the Centre
(CCLCV) has been set up to enhance our understanding
towards criminalogy and victimology.
