- Summary:
-
Fifteen newspaper articles about crime and justice in America are contained in this document. As the basis for a 15-week course by newspaper during the fall of 1977, the articles served as the course "lectures." The articles were written by professors of law, psychology, sociology, philosophy, and criminology; attorneys and judges; and researchers. They explore crime in America and consider its causes, theories of prevention, and the institutional means employed to combat it, including police, courts, and corrections. The relationship between sex, race, and crime is examined, as well as historical and future perspectives on criminal punishment. White-collar crime, organized crime, and urban crime are defined. Each article is preceded by a biographical statement about the author. (Author/AV)
