This book focuses on the role of the community in the American criminal justice system. It provides new insights into the boundaries defining criminality and the operations of the criminal justice system. The text incorporates many "non-judicial routes" in the resolution of disputes, including arbitration, negotiation and mediation. The roles of American judges, prosecutors, and defense lawyers - and strategies such as plea bargaining - are also investigated.
