Summary:Garland 2000; 2001 suggests that the liberal elite in the United Kingdom and the United States no longer sees itself as isolated from the everyday effects of crime.

Data form national surveys are supportive of the analysis that David Garland presents for the decline in support for rehabilitative, reintegrative, or correctionalist crime control strategies
