Justice, Legality and the Rule of Law: Lessons from the Pitcairn Prosecutions
Oliver
In 2004 six Pitcairn men were convicted of numerous offences against girls and young women, but what right did the British government have to initiate these prosecutions? Was it fair given that no laws had been published on the island? Indeed, what law was there on this island? This book explores the wider issues raised by the Pitcairn case.
