Toward Justice : Broadening the Study of Criminal Justice Paperback / softback
by Kristi (University of Missouri-Kansas) Holsinger, Lori Sexton
Paperback / softback
Description
Designed as a text for Criminal Justice and Criminology capstone courses, Toward Justice encourages students to engage critically with conceptions of justice that go beyond the criminal justice system, in order to cultivate a more thorough understanding of the system as it operates on the ground in an imperfect world-where people aren't always rational actors, where individual cases are linked to larger social problems, and where justice can sometimes slip through the cracks.
Through a combined focus on content and professional development, Toward Justice helps students translate what they have learned in the classroom into active strategies for justice in their professional lives-preparing them for careers that will not simply maintain the status quo and stability that exists within our justice system, but rather challenge the system to achieve justice.
