In many jurisdictions it has led to compensation schemes funded by the state, support for victims of crime to help them recover from their ordeal, and involvement of victims in decisions as to how offenders should be dealt with. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis book examines developments in support for victims of crime in Asia.
