Examining Crime and Justice around the World (Global Viewpoints)

Janet P Stamatel

4.9/5 (25047 ratings)

Description:This book offers a detailed look at ten "hot topics" in crime and punishment that are shared by many countries. Some of these topics are well- established within the field of criminology, such as patterns of criminal behavior, juvenile delinquency, drug trafficking, policing, and punishment; but others are emerging topics that have not been well studied across a variety of countries, such as violence against women, hate crimes, and gun control.Within each topic, the book explores how eight countries experience the issue, highlighting similarities across different places as well as unique treatments of the problem. The chapter on punishment addresses the widespread use of incarceration as criminal punishment, but also considers different philosophies with respect to the purpose of incarceration and whether or not this strategy is effective in the face of large-scale criminal events, such as mass atrocities. The country narratives provide historical context for understanding the particular crime or punishment issue, current trends, and relevant statistical data for describing the extent of the issue and changes over time, in addition to contemporary examples of the issue.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
