Within this project, HEUNI has published, for instance, studies on criminal justice in Italy, France, Finland, the Netherlands, Sweden, Ireland, England and Wales, Canada, Spain, Bulgaria, and Greece. As part of the aforementioned project, the Institute of Criminology and Social Prevention also produced such a study on the criminal justice system in the Czech Republic. In order to retain the comparative value of information drawn from various countries, it was necessary, when producing the study, to follow the outline and content delimited by HEUNI. This, of course, predetermined the way the authors approached the study, as well as the aspects of Czech criminal justice they focused on. Since the first publication of this study, almost ten years have passed, marked by the recodification process which is still going on as part of the reform of Czech justice. Several important changes have taken place in the area of criminal justice, too. Especially the adoption of the new Criminal Code can be seen as a major event reflecting the development of the theory and practice of criminal law. Therefore some passages of the original study have been revised or supplemented wherever it was necessary with regard to the changes in legislation, development of statistical data or outcomes of criminological research.
