The New Criminal Justice : American Communities and the Changing World of Crime Control Paperback / softback

Edited by John (Rochester Institute of Technology, USA) Klofas, Natalie Kroovand (Michigan State University, USA) Hipple, Edmund McGarrell

Part of the Criminology and Justice Studies series

Paperback / softback

Description

Criminal Justice in the United States is in the midst of momentous changes: an era of low crime rates not seen since the 1960s, and a variety of budget crunches also exerting profound impacts on the system.

This is the first book available to chronicle these changes and suggest a new, emerging model to the Criminal Justice system, emphasizing: collaboration across agencies previously viewed as relatively autonomous a focus on location problems and local solutions rather than a widely shared understanding of crime or broad application of similar interventions a deep commitment to research which guides problem assessment and policy formulation and intervention. Ideal for use in graduate, as well as undergraduate capstone courses.
