The often-tenuous relationship between law enforcement and
communities of color, namely African Americans, has grown
increasingly strained, and the call for justice has once again
ignited the demand for criminal justice reform. Rebuilding the
trust between the police and the citizens that they have sworn to
protect and serve requires that criminal justice practitioners and
educators collaborate with elected officials and commit to an open,
ongoing dialogue on the most challenging issues that remain
unresolved but demand collective attention and support. Reform
measures are not limited to policing policies and practices, but
rather extend throughout the criminal justice system. There is no
denying that the criminal justice system as we know it is flawed,
but not beyond repair. Global Perspectives on Reforming the
Criminal Justice System provides in-depth and current research
about the criminal justice system around the world, its many
inadequacies, and why it urgently needs reformation. Offering a
fully fleshed outline of the current system, this book details the
newest research and is incredibly important to fully understand the
flaws of the criminal justice system across the globe. The goals of
this book are to improve and advance the criminal justice system by
addressing the glaring weaknesses within the system and discuss
potential reforms including decreasing the prison population
(decarceration) and improving police/community relations.
Highlighting topics that include accountability, community-oriented
policing, ethics, and mass incarceration, this book is ideal for
law enforcement officers, trainers/educators, government officials,
policymakers, correctional officers, court officials,
professionals, researchers, academicians, and students in the
fields of criminal justice, criminology, sociology, psychology,
addictions, mental health, social work, public policy, and public
administration.
