Summary, etc. |
Covers police, courts and other criminal justice sub-disciplines. Features thematic articles on the sociology of street crime.Specifically, it covers entries concerning the major actors (criminals and victims) affected by street crime. It also identifies and analyzes the variety of perpetrators (from street gangs to organized crime) and those who get involved after the fact when the street crimes were reported, from private citizens groups (such as the Guardian Angels and vigilantes) to publicly-chartered criminal justice agencies (for example police, courts and jails). The encyclopedia also reviews important figures who have attempted to control and/or respond to street crime in America (William Bratton, Rudolph Giuliani, etc.) The volume also looks into some of the major criminal justice initiatives to study and monitor street crime (for example, Kerner Commission and the Kansas City Preventive Patrol Experiment). It also highlights some of the most celebrated street crime cases in New York that garnered public attention such as 1964 murder of Kitty Genovese, the 1987 Tawana Brawley "assault" and the 1989 Central Park Jogger. Featured also are theories and debates concerning street crime causation as Broken Windows Theory. Trends and major players on street crime in largest cities in the Unites States were also given emphasis. Lastly, it reviews history and dynamics of street crime and scholarship. This title is considered the most up-to-date work on the subject which criminologist, criminal justice practitioners, students of criminology/criminal justice, members of the media, and politicians may find valuable resource material. |
