Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not
used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad
quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are
images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to
keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the
original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain
imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made
available for future generations to enjoy.
Racial bias in the U.S. criminal justice system is much debated and
discussed, but until now, no single volume has covered the full
expanse of the issue. In Bias in the Law, sixteen outstanding
experts address the impact of racial bias in the full roster of
criminal justice actors. They examine the role of legislators
crafting criminal justice legislation, community enforcers, and
police, as well as prosecutors, criminal defense attorneys, judges,
and jurors. Understanding when and why bias arises, as well as how
it impacts defendants requires a clear understanding how each of
these actors operate. Contributions touch on other crucial
topics-racialized drug stigma, legal technology, and
interventions-that are vital for understanding how the United
States has reached this moment of stark racial disparity in
incarceration. The result is an important entry into understanding
the pervasiveness of racial bias, how such bias impacts legal
outcomes, and why such impact matters. This is an issue that is as
relevant today as it was fifty-or even one hundred fifty-years ago,
and collection editors Joseph Avery and Joel Cooper provide a
glimpse at how to proceed.
