Criminology and the Criminal Justice System is a book for everyone
interested in the historical development of the ideas on crime and
punishment and their impact on the criminal justice system and the
fight against crime more widely. It is as much a book for students,
researchers and policy makers, as it is for lawyers, magistrates,
police officers, public prosecutors and social workers. It is also
a book for a wider readership curious about the origins of the
current approach to issues of crime and criminal justice. Never
before has an introduction to criminology systematically dealt with
its history from the sixteenth century up to the present day, as
well as the institutions of the criminal justice system: the
police, the judiciary, the prison system, rehabilitation and youth
protection. This is the first published study not only to discuss
the development of criminology and the criminal justice systems of
Western Europe (Belgium, the Netherlands, Germany, France, Great
Britain and Italy) but also to delve into the interplay with the
evolution of the system in the United States from the end of the
eighteenth century up to this day. In addition, the extensive
bibliography and numerous illustrations make this textbook ideal
for further study and more in-depth research as well as a pleasure
to read.
