Description: | Select Guide Rating Providing an approach to criminal justice studies, this book sets out a series of ten dilemmas, presented as debates, designed to provide students with a framework with which to develop their knowledge and analysis. It is designed for lecturers to structure a core unit of their courses around. This innovative new book recognises that, while criminal justice studies is a core component of all criminology/criminal justice undergraduate degrees, it can be a confusing, overwhelming and a relatively dry topic despite its importance. Taking an original approach, this book sets out a series of ten key dilemmas - presented as debates - designed to provide students with a clear framework within which to develop their knowledge and analysis in a way that is both effective and an enjoyable learning experience. It is also designed for use by lecturers, who can structure a core unit of their courses around it. Debates in Criminal Justice provides a new and dynamic framework for learning, making considerable use of the other already available academic key texts, press articles, web sources and more. |
