Criminal Justice and Political Cultures (eBook, ePUB)

Redaktion: Newburn, Tim; Sparks, Richard

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

As crime increasingly crosses national boundaries, and international co-operation takes firmer shape, so the development of ideas and policy on the control of crime has become an increasingly international and transnational affair. This book is concerned both with the very specific issue of 'policy transfer' within the crime control arena, and with the issues raised by a more broadly conceptualized idea of comparative policy analysis.
