Working with sex offenders in context: Which way forward?

Abstract

This article explores the context and content of behaviour change interventions with sex offenders, giving attention to the contemporary climate, evolving theoretical frameworks and practice realities. Recognizing the highly charged nature of policy and practice in this area, and the potential therein for conformist and collusive practices, the article argues for the adoption of a more candid and critical approach to the development and delivery of policy and practice in this area.
