"This book examines the influence of politics and ideology on criminal justice practice. Politics refers to governing decisions about how to deal with social problems and distribute resources in society, and ideology means the beliefs and values that guide political decisions and underlie our societal institutions. The book clearly illustrates that criminal justice practice is directly and meaningfully impacted by politics and ideology, beginning with law-making. The main argument of Criminal Injustice is that politics and ideology distort America''s ideal goals of crime control and due process, oftentimes resulting in ineffective and unfair criminal justice policies. That is, politics and ideology distort the ideals of Americans found in the Declaration of Independence and the U.S. Constitution"--

Why Crime? summarizes the latest empirical evidence with regard to the risk factors that produce antisocial and criminal behavior. The author then meaningfully integrates risk factors identified by more than a dozen academic disciplines that increase the odds of antisocial behavior and criminality. The result is a new interdisciplinary theory that helps break down traditional barriers and overcomes the "disciplinary myopia" that plagues criminological theory. That is, this theory allows us to see beyond the discipline of Criminology. Unlike the typical criminological theory text, Why Crime? actually advances the state of criminological theory as well as the field of criminology. The fourth edition includes summaries of scores of the latest studies on crime from numerous academic disciplines.
