Synopsis

This volume presents a comprehensive analysis of how various criminal justice systems throughout the world compare. It reflects trends and information on topics such as international crime control and corrections. By using a topical approach (examining various aspects of each system, such as policing, drugs, sentencing, and juvenile justice) rather than a country-by-country approach, the book gives students a realistic understanding of the similarities and differences of each system. Six model countries (China, England, Germany, Japan, Saudi Arabia, and France) are used to provide specific examples and explore historical, political, economic, social, and cultural influences on each system.
