Crime and Justice, Volume 42 - Crime and Justice in America: 1975-2025

About the author

Summary

For the American criminal justice system, 1975 was a watershed year. Offender rehabilitation and individualized sentencing fell from favor. The partisan politics of "law and order" took over. This book tells how policy and knowledge did and did not interact over time and charts prospects for the future.
