Ethics in Criminal Justice

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

Recognizing that contemporary criminal justice professionals require strong moral standing, Ethics in Criminal Justice provides students with an essential guide to ethics in practice. Opening chapters outline the ways in which the criminal justice system can change as a result of political and historical forces; underscore how ethics education can enhance the quality of public service for criminal justice professionals; describe the development of modern social thoughts and perspectives; and illustrate how the culture of society shapes the behavior of its members. Students learn about virtual ethics, hedonism, and stoicism; three contemporary branches of ethics, including metaethics, normative ethics, and applied ethics; the concept of morality; and key theories of ethics. Dedicated chapters examine ethical issues in policing, criminal procedure, and punishment and corrections. The final chapter addresses the role of universal benevolence in criminal justice and the ways in which ethics can make a difference in police training. Comprehensive in nature, Ethics in Criminal Justice is an essential resource for courses and programs in criminal justice.
