Technology has become increasingly important to both the function
and our understanding of the justice process. Many forms of
criminal behaviour are highly dependent upon technology, and crime
control has become a predominantly technologically driven process -
one where 'traditional' technological aids such as fingerprinting
or blood sample analysis are supplemented by a dizzying array of
tools and techniques including surveillance devices and DNA
profiling. This book offers the first comprehensive and holistic
overview of global research on technology, crime and justice. It is
divided into five parts, each corresponding with the key stages of
the offending and justice process: Part I addresses the current
conceptual understanding of technology within academia and the
criminal justice system; Part II gives a comprehensive overview of
the current relations between technology and criminal behaviour;
Part III explores the current technologies within crime control and
the ways in which technology underpins contemporary formal and
informal social control; Part IV sets out some of the fundamental
impacts technology is now having upon the judicial process; Part V
reveals the emerging technologies for crime, control and justice
and considers the extent to which new technology can be effectively
regulated. This landmark collection will be essential reading for
academics, students and theorists within criminology, sociology,
law, engineering and technology, and computer science, as well as
practitioners and professionals working within and around the
criminal justice system.
