The research recognizes that despite seemingly very different legal traditions and structures, prosecutors in these systems are similar enough that each system might learn from the others. Drawing upon the experiences of other nations, this research proposes solutions to the problems identified in connection with the position and powers of public prosecutors in the United States. Furthermore, it outlines the problems related to the increase of prosecutorial power and the lessons the European criminal justice systems surveyed can draw from the experience in the US. In terms of methodology, this research not only considers formal legal provisions but also systematic structural factors, academic literature and statistics revealing how the law and governing principles actually work in practice. 000697912 588__ $$aDescription based on online resource; title from PDF title page (SpringerLink, viewed April 21, 2014). 000697912 650_0 $$aPublic prosecutors$$zUnited States. 000697912 650_0 $$aPublic prosecutors$$zEurope. 000697912 852__ $$bebk 000697912 85640 $$3SpringerLink$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http://dx.doi.org/10.1007/978-3-319-04504-7$$zOnline Access 000697912 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:697912$$pGLOBAL_SET 000697912 980__ $$aEBOOK 000697912 980__ $$aBIB 000697912 982__ $$aEbook 000697912 983__ $$aOnline 000697912 994__ $$a92$$bISE
