Hinter Gittern: Gefängnisse zwischen Strafe und Rehabilitation

Wie das Strafsystem funktioniert, wo es scheitert - und was sich ändern muss

This two-volume set provides insights not only into issues of criminology, but also criminal justice issues that are generally not at the forefront of Caribbean scholarship, for example, remand detention and the Caribbean Court of Justice. This volume focusses on crime, crime trends and criminal justice reform whereas volume II focusses on intersectionality, justice, and vulnerable populations. Using a diverse approach, and tackling topics including, food fraud, human trafficking, gender-based and domestic violence, climate change, and agro-terrorism, these books fill an existing lacuna in the context of specific issues plaguing Caribbean criminological and justice landscapes in the region.

Melland Schill Perspectives on International Law

Why are constitutionalist ideals so prominent in science fiction? Does Independence Day depict self-defence as a legal concept with absolute limits? Is international law lost in space? This innovative interdisciplinary volume represents the first exploration of the relationship between international law and cinema. From Star Wars to Werner Herzog, The Godfather to The West Wing, this book uncovers a diverse range of representations of international law and its norms in film and television. Examining the wider links between international law, cinema and ideology, the contributions not only examine visual representations of international law, but they offer an essential insight into the functions fulfilled by these cinematic representations. Providing an extraordinary introduction to a variety of perspectives on core international legal questions, Cinematic perspectives on international law extends a valuable methodology by which international lawyers can critique the depiction of international law in film.

The US Criminal Justice System

This essential book brings together leading criminology researchers from across the globe to explore the critical role of the 'evidence base' in crime and criminal justice. It began with a simple question: if experts were asked to write about the evidence base in their area of expertise, what would they say? Casting the net widely to ensure a diverse range of topics, contributors were given a straightforward brief: 5000 words on any aspect of the evidence base within their field. The result is a lively and accessible collection of papers offering critical assessments and insightful commentary on the state of research evidence.This book is designed for students, academics, policymakers, and practitioners in criminology, criminal justice, and related fields. It addresses the challenges of turning empirical evidence into effective policy and practice, while highlighting methodological, political, and practical issues faced by researchers. The chapters provide research-driven insights into the evidence base across various areas, making this an invaluable resource for understanding the intersection of research and public policy in criminal justice.The chapters in this book were originally published as a special issue of Evidence Base.

Contemporary Topics in Criminology

An unprecedented dialogue between a long-term federal prisoner and a senior prison official reveals how America’s carceral system scars everyone it touches.
No One Gets Out Unscarred argues that the prison system fails not only those it incarcerates, but also the staff who work inside it and the communities to which most will return. Rather than opposing prisoners and correctional officers, it shows how their lives are shaped by the same punitive culture, institutional incentives, and political decisions.
At its center is an extraordinary exchange between two men on opposite sides of the bars: Robert Barton, incarcerated since adolescence in high-security federal prisons, and Jack Donson, a retired Bureau of Prisons official who rose from correctional officer to case manager. Drawn from more than fifty hours of interviews, their interwoven accounts reveal a system that brutalizes prisoners while eroding staff morale, health, and judgment.
Moving beyond exposés and redemption narratives, the book examines the everyday mechanics of incarceration—lockdowns, restrictive housing, medical neglect, mental-health failures, broken grievance systems, and the hollow promise of rehabilitation—through lived experience on both sides.
Rejecting both abolitionist polemic and law-and-order defenses, it asks a pragmatic question: if more than 95 percent of incarcerated people will return home, what kind of prison system actually serves society?

Kriminologie

An influential legal scholar argues that the Supreme Court played a pivotal role in the rise of mass incarceration in America. With less than 5 percent of the world's population and almost a quarter of its prisoners, America indisputably has a mass incarceration problem. How did it happen? Tough-on-crime politics and the war on drugs are obvious and important culprits, but another factor has received little attention: the Supreme Court. Since the 1960s, the Court has repeatedly disregarded constitutional limits on the state's power to lock people away. Justice Abandoned highlights six decisions that made mass incarceration possible. These rulings have been crucial to the rise in pretrial detention and coercive plea bargaining. They have blessed disproportionate sentencing and overcrowded prisons. And they have sanctioned innumerable police stops and widespread racial discrimination. If the Court were committed to protecting constitutional rights, none of these cases would have been decided as they were. Rachel Barkow offers a roadmap for change, showing that the originalist methodology adopted by the majority of the current Court demands overturning the unconstitutional policies underlying mass incarceration. If the justices genuinely believe in upholding the Constitution, then they have little choice but to reverse the wrongly decided precedents that have failed so many Americans.

How the Supreme Court Ignored the Constitution and Enabled Mass Incarceration

Justice Abandoned

Ein Tagebuch

Mein Zauberberg

If someone you love has just been arrested, the criminal justice system becomes confusing, fast, and unforgiving.
 Criminal Justice Through the Looking Glass explains exactly what happens next-and how families and defendants can navigate jail, court, plea deals, sentencing, prison, and appeals with clear expectations instead of false assumptions.
This book shows what actually happens after the arrest, not what the system claims to do.
This book helps you understand:What really happens at arraignment, bond hearings, and pretrial detention
How plea deals are structured, pressured, and decided
Why most cases never go to trial
How lawyers, prosecutors, and judges operate behind closed doors
What jail intake and prison life are actually like
How sentencing and post-conviction appeals really work




Written by Daniel Teitelbaum, PhD, who lived the process himself, this is a practical, step-by-step guide combined with an unfiltered insider analysis of courtroom realities, jail politics, and systemic incentives that shape outcomes long before a jury is ever seated.
This book is for:Families trying to help someone who has just been arrested
Defendants who want to understand what they are actually facing
Students or professionals seeking a realistic view of criminal procedure
Anyone who wants clarity instead of legal abstractions




This book is NOT:A legal textbook
A how-to manual for beating charges
A call for reform or activism
A sentimental memoir




Darkly funny, unsentimental, and deeply practical, Criminal Justice Through the Looking Glass provides a realistic map from arrest through incarceration and appeals-so readers can make informed decisions when the stakes are highest.
