An evidence-based roadmap for how the American criminal justice
system can be reformed This important volume brings together
today's leading criminal justice scholars and practitioners to
offer a roadmap for those who want to change the face of the
American criminal justice system. This collection of essays
addresses thirteen significant issues in justice reform, starting
from a suspect's first interaction with the police and continuing
to gun violence, prosecutorial innovation, sentencing reform,
eliminating bail, recidivism and re-entry, collateral consequences
of crime, and eliminating false convictions. A common theme emerges
in this volume: the American criminal justice system is riddled
with weaknesses that cause harm and require greater accountability.
Each chapter is both educational and prescriptive, helping readers
to understand the problems that plague the criminal justice system,
how those problems can be addressed, and who should take
responsibility for them. Part scholarly research, part account of
the justice system's workings and failings, and part agenda for
action, Transforming Criminal Justice aims to educate and move
readers to effect change.
