With a topical, rather than country-by-country approach, this book discusses how various countries around the world have organized police, courts, and corrections agencies. The text provides the rationale for studying other systems of justice and sets down the specific approach to be used.
Now in its third edition, Comparative Criminal Justice Systems offers an expanded and updated look at how criminal justice is practiced around the world. With topical coverage of how different countries handle police, courts, and corrections, author Philip Reichel contrasts the American CJ system with several others around the globe, and offers suggestions for change.
A must-read for any serious criminal justice student, Comparative Criminal Justice Systems is a book that can be read and appreciated internationally.
