Classical victimology has accepted the idea that victims and offenders are different and opposed.
In this line of argument, it seems that victims can obtain satisfaction through the lowering of the
guarantees for suspects and detainees, and the increase of punishment. This perspective has been
promoted by the United States, followed by other countries like the United Kingdom. However
there is at least one model that differs from them: the Swedish case. Facing the lack of research
on the global increase of services for victims, this article intends to clarify this by a comparative
analysis between the United States and Sweden. In the States, the promotion of services for
victims is connected to a harsh punitive criminal policy. By contrast, in Sweden, improving the
rights of victims is related to the idea of human rights, treatment and support. This study shows
different possible approaches to victims and crime, in diverse cultural contexts, as well as realistic
possibilities of applying these policies in other countries. Finally, this text questions the dominant
assumptions about how to help victims in a better way |
