Criminal Justice Theory examines the theoretical foundations of
criminal justice in the modern era, whilst also considering legal
philosophy and ethics, explaining criminal behaviour, and
discussing policing, the court process, and penology in the context
of contemporary socio-economic debates.
Throughout the book, a realist theoretical thread acts as a
guide interlinking concepts of social progress, conflict, and
cerebral models of criminal justice, whilst also recognizing our
collusion in the creation of an increasingly pervasive culture of
socio-control which now characterizes contemporary society.
The complex theoretical issues tackled in this book are
addressed in an accessible style, making this a relevant and
comprehensive introduction to criminal justice theory for students
on a wide range of undergraduate criminal justice modules. It is
also a helpful guide for those commencing postgraduate studies in
the disciplines of criminal justice, criminology, and law.
