Justice, Crime, and Ethics by Michael C Braswell
Justice, Crime, and Ethics, a leading textbook in criminal justice programs, examines ethical dilemmas pertaining to the administration of criminal justice and professional activities in the field.The work is well-organized, and its chapters coherently flow logicallyThe authors have managed to fine-tune the chapter materials so that they build on one another, providing learning opportunities that students appreciate and which enhance the learning process. The interweaving of recent empirical results into reinforcing pedagogy is strong. Contentious issues are introduced and explored, and student discourse is constructive. We will continue to use Justice, Crime, and Ethics in our class, as there is no other comprehensive, student-friendly, and constructive alternative.
Harry E. Allen, Professor Emeritus of Justice Studies, San Jose State University
One of the key challenges of this course is the engagement of students in discussions about values/ethics/responsibility, etc. and on them engaging in learning which may and/or should challenge them. The module is aimed at directly engaging students with these ethical issues and the way that they will work professionally in the future. This text allows for the exploration of this in detail around specific areas, i.e. policing.
Ester Ragonese, Associate Dean Education / Senior Lecturer in Law, Liverpool John Moores University
The boxes with ethical dilemmas are great for students to learn how to apply ethical theories and how you can think about what the "right thing" to do is in many different ways. I also really like the chapter on alternative theories to the big ones like Utilitarianism and Deontology.
