Criminal Justice and Criminology

Terms, Concepts, and Cases

By: James F. Anderson,Laronistine Dyson,Adam Langsam,Willie Jr Brooks

This dictionary contains criminal justice terms, criminological concepts, and over 100 cases decided by courts in the federal system, including the United States Supreme Court. These cases address aspects of criminal procedures, as well as individual rights in the U.S. Constitution related to the First, Fourth, Fifth, Sixth, Eighth, and Fourteenth Amendments. Using professional terms in an easy-to-read format, this book will provide the reader with a clear understanding of past and present concepts, terms, and case laws that are related to criminal justice and criminology. It serves as a perfect text for criminal justice and criminology programs at the undergraduate and graduate level. It can also be used as a supplemental adoption for these programs since most texts are written in an esoteric manner.

Boot Camps

An Intermediate Sanction

By: James F. Anderson,Laronistine Dyson,Jerald C. Burns

The research examines the operation of boot camps, or shock incarceration programs, examining whether they (a) work as an intermediate sanction, (b) generate more harm than good, (c) prevent offenders from re-entering the criminal justice system, and (d) are cost effective. The authors conclude that shock incarceration reduces the strain on prison budgets, reserves prison bed space for hardened criminals, and offers boot camp participants a chance for rehabilitation. Criticisms of boot camp approaches are also noted.
