In recent years, the criminal justice sector has made various strategic partnerships with the private sector, exemplified by initiatives within the police, the prison system, and offender services. This has seen unprecedented growth in the past thirty years, and a veritable explosion under the tenure of the Coalition government in the United Kingdom. This book highlights key areas of domestic and global concern and illustrates, with detail, case studies of important developments. It connects the study of criminology and criminal justice to the wider study of public policy, government institutions, and political decision making. In doing so, Privatising Criminal Justice provides a theoretical and practical framework for evaluating collaborative public and private sector response to social problems at the beginning of the twenty-first century. An accessible and compelling read, this book will appeal to students and scholars of criminology, criminal justice, sociology, politics and all those interested in how privatisation has shaped the contemporary criminal justice system"-- $c Provided by publisher. 650 0 $a Criminal justice, Administration of. 650 0 $a Privatization. 650 0 $a Police, Private. 650 0 $a Private prisons. 650 2 $a Privatization $0 (DNLM)D011332 650 6 $a Privatisation. $0 (CaQQLa)201-0138513 650 6 $a Police privee. $0 (CaQQLa)201-0068555 650 6 $a Prisons privees. $0 (CaQQLa)201-0271032 650 7 $a Criminal justice, Administration of. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00883246 650 7 $a Police, Private. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01068739 650 7 $a Private prisons. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst02025560 650 7 $a Privatization. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01077649 700 1 $a Hobbs, Sue, $e author. 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20230317011057.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=08508364C48911EDAC2163E35EECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
