Description
Criminal Justice in England and the United States, Second Edition has been fully updated to include the latest information on criminal justice policy and administration in England and the United States. The author team's direct experience working in the English and American criminal justice system provides students with unbiased viewpoints on the objectives and effectiveness of each system. Using a theoretical framework for the comparison of these uniquely distinct criminal justice systems, this text helps students understand the differences and similarities in values, laws, crime rates, and other factors that exist between the two countries. Students are encouraged to assess the structure and operation of these two criminal justice systems as well as examine how policies are made and implemented. Concluding with an evaluation of the English criminal justice system, this text presents timely lessons for both England and the United States and encourages both countries to work closely together to improve the field of criminal justice.
