Justice Gained? by Bill Dixon
This title takes a critical look at the impact of South Africa's transition to democracy on crime, providing a critical commentary on key issues in contemporary South African criminology. At the same time it provides a significant contribution to the wider debate about crime and criminology in societies in transition in other parts of the world.
Bill Dixon grew up in the rural Cotswolds, when the sight of a car was a rare thing. He prepared for the Baptist Ministry at Bristol Baptist College and studied theology at Bristol University. He led churches in Bristol and inner city Birmingham for forty years, also serving on the Prison Parole Board and as Chairman of Mercian Housing Association. After getting Prime Minister Harold Wilson involved with a community regeneration initiative in Birmingham, Bill turned his attention to the growth of the local church. He was instrumental, with others, in introducing the Vineyard Church to Birmingham. This led to a sabbatical at Newport Beach, California, followed by extensive travel in South Africa, Malawi, Mozambique, Siberia, Iraq, Albania, and Lebanon, to deliver mentoring projects. Bill remains a trustee of Birmingham Vineyard Church. He is married to Jennifer and they have one remaining son, Peter.
