Herbert L. Packer,

Free Will and Agency

In one of the most important contributions to systematic thought about the administration of criminal justice, Herbert Packer articulates the values supporting two models of the justice process. He notes the gulf existing between the Due Process Model of criminal administration, with its emphasis on the rights of the individual, and the Crime Control Model, which sees the regulation of criminal conduct as the most important function of the judicial system.
