Paths to Justice in the Netherlands 2014
The 2003 and 2009 Paths to Justice studies provided a quantitative overview of the so-called landscape of disputes as seen from the perspective of Dutch citizens. This provided insight into the extent to which citizens are confronted with justiciable problems and the courses they follow to resolve those prob...
Doel van het onderzoek is inzicht te verschaffen in het niet-gebruik van rechtshulp. De onderzoeksvragen luiden:
1 In hoeverre is sprake van niet-gebruik, in termen van (a) niet-gebruik van rechtshulp en (b) niet-gebruik van juridische procedures? In hoeverre hangt dit niet-gebruik samen met respondent-, probleem- en tegenpartijkenmerken?
2 Welke r...
Burgers en bedrijven kunnen in het dagelijkse leven met verschillende civiel- en bestuursrechtelijke problemen worden geconfronteerd. Bij de aanpak van die problemen kunnen ze al dan niet een beroep doen op allerlei hulpverlenende instanties. In dit hoofdstuk komt de vraag naar verschillende vormen van rechtsbijstand en buitengerechtelijke procedur...
This article is an empirical study of the interrelationship between (subsidized) legal aid and legal expenses insurance (LEI) in the Netherlands. Is LEI a system that is relevant only to the high‐income groups that are not eligible for legal aid? Is it therefore a complement to legal aid? Or is LEI also of interest to lower‐income groups, and can i...
In this paper, we offer an account of the meta-evaluation of a special administrative arrangement, the Dutch Closed Criminal Cases Evaluation Commission (Dutch acronym: CEAS). The CEAS is a provisional evaluation institution meant to investigate alleged missteps during criminal investigation
and prosecution, which may have caused the conviction of...
Laws are important vehicles for policy. They are generally complex and involve various interventions. Despite their pervasive presence and numerous evaluation studies, laws have not been a topic of meta-analytical interest among social scientists. As a result, we lack an overall picture of the type(s) of interventions involved in laws, of the chain...
The ability of political systems to adopt policy reforms contributes to their internal stability. This article analyses 29 anti-corruption reforms in seven sub-Saharan countries. It seeks to explain the level of adopted reform in these countries from conflicts of interests between policy actors. Two groups of policy actors are distinguished: veto-p...

This article provides an analysis of a cross-section of 31 evaluations in one policy field in one country during a period of two years. It offers a national profile of an evaluation effort in law enforcement and demonstrates that this cross-section diverges widely from the typical interventions evaluated under the auspices of the Campbell C...
Current theories of anti-corruption reforms in developing countries highly depend on the assumption that 'vested interests' oppose the interests of more progressive groups in society. However, no systematic description is yet available of the preference space of anti-corruption decision-making in developing countries. Are there consistent alignment...
Over the past decade, the international donor community has come up with a range of initiatives to curb governmental corruption in developing countries. Top-down approaches devise administrative and judicial reforms, whereas bottom-up approaches deal with the process of awareness-raising in civil society. The World Bank currently integrates these t...

... The CEAS is a provisory evaluation organ meant to investigate possible mistakes in the stage of criminal investigation/prosecution, which possibly resulted in a wrongful conviction. 44 The task of the CEAS is to examine, by means of an investigation, whether severe shortcomings arose in the investigation, prosecution and/or presentation of evidence at a court session in a specific criminal case, which prevented the court's impartial evaluation of the case. The methodology combined a process evaluation with an audit approach. ...
... Responsive and realism evaluation (theories used for the general evaluation of legislation) indicate the importance of a contextual perspective when changes in legislation occur [15][16][17][18]. Both theories consider the sometimes complex, capricious and unintended relationship between legislation, on the one hand, and reality, on the other, when changes in legislation occur. ...

... 3). As such, the methodology is common in evaluation and evidence-based policy research (Klein Haarhuis & Niemeijer, 2009;Pawson, 2002Pawson, , 2006Pawson, et al., 2004) although new in higher education research. ...
... We address our questions in the context of the Dutch welfare state, which offers subsidized legal aid to lower income groups and also has a well-established market for private legal expenses insurance. Legal expenses insurance is increasingly popular among all segments of the Dutch population, including low-income households (Van Velthoven & Klein Haarhuis, 2011). ...

... As a result, a wide array of approaches and programmes have been designed and implemented to account for and respond to context-specific needs and requirements in the areas of CT and PCVE. From the perspective of the present study, the variety and breadth of the CT and PCVE spectrum constitutes a challenge that the study's analytical framework must be able to tackle, accounting for the different 85 See: Kleemans et al.

... Polarization reaches its maximum when two equally-sized coalitions of parties (or simply two coalitions) take an opposed position at the extremes of a distribution. The ER-measure was previously applied in policy research by Torenvlied and Haarhuis (2008) and Zhelyazkova and Torenvlied (2009). ...

... These groups keen to maintain the state's deficiencies and block progressive reform agendas, including the anti-corruption agenda. They have the capacity to reduce technocratic competence and thus erode the power of anti-corruption reform policies; manipulate the judicial system; and co-opt the democratic governance machinery and law enforcement institutions to serve and protect their political-economic interests (Geddes, 1991;Haarhuis & Torenvlied, 2006). ...
... Er werd slechts zeer weinig evaluatie onderzoek uitbesteed (zes onderzoeken). Ex-ante evaluaties (evaluatie van de mogelijke gevolgen die een voorgenomen wetswijziging of wetgeving kan hebben) en ex-post evaluatie (evaluatie van de gevolgen van de bestaande wetgeving) zijn in ons land, in vergelijking met ons omringende landen (Haarhuis & Leeuw, 2005) nauwelijks doorgevoerd vanuit het departement Justitie. De categorie "andere" omvat strategisch, historisch en actieonderzoek. ...

... Zo berust het anti-corruptieprogramma van de Wereldbank op trainingsprogramma's waarin vertegenwoordigers van ontwikkelingslanden instrumenten worden aangereikt waarmee corruptie kan worden bestreden. Vervolgens worden de deelnemers gestimuleerd om zelf een 'nationaal actieplan' op te zetten in het land van herkomst (Klein Haarhuis & Leeuw, 2002;World Bank Institute, 1999). Ook in de private sector is sprake van een opkomst van zachte sturing. ...
