Book Synopsis Criminal Justice by : Matthew Delisi

Download or read book Criminal Justice written by Matthew Delisi and published by . This book was released on 2011-07-07 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "I sought to write a criminal justice textbook whose central theme showcases the ways that criminal justice systems operate according to the at time conflicting, and at times complementary, goals of crime control and due process. With these models in mind, students can learn that the police, courts, and correctional systems can: strive toward the goal of repressing crime or ensuring procedural safeguards, focus on police power or judicial oversight, operate with efficiency and finality or skepticism and deliberation, employ a law and order or civil libertarian mentality, operate with a presumption of guilt or a presumption of innocence, be likened to an assembly line or obstacle course, appear to be conservative or liberal. Using Packer's classic formulation of the criminal justice system, Criminal Justice: Balancing Crime Control and Due Process (3rd Edition) can help students improve their critical thinking skills and evaluate why criminal justice practitioners make the decisions they do when processing criminal offenders. It is my hope that the crime control and due process models will help students organize and understand criminal justice as a system that is often characterize as decentralized, disorganized, and even chaotic."--Xiii, (Preface).
