SCIENCE & TECHNOLOGY Comparative & International Criminal Justice Systems Policingjudiciaryand Corrections 1996 Edition by Obi Ebbe
Specifically covering the police, the judiciary and corrections, this book studies the justice systems of countries in Africa, Asia, the Middle East, Europe, and North and South America in order to establish which deterrents and correction methods are most effective in lowering crime rates. The study of diverse criminal justice systems and their agencies of social control has taken on an essential role in establishing which deterrents and correction methods are most effective. This book explores in depth the criminal justice systems of various countries and compares and contrasts effective systems with those proven less than adequate. It is useful for studying the philosophical and utilitarian ideals that motivate the criminal justice goals of countries with low crime rates.
