The book delivers a detailed discussion on a variety of pertinent topics, including but not limited to violence affecting vulnerable populations, transnational organized crime, radicalism, terrorism, honor killings, caste discrimination, and human rights issues, rounded out with case studies for real-world context. It also delineates global and regional responses to crime, presenting overviews of international partnerships and organizations addressing such challenges. Comparative Justice is well suited for undergraduate and graduate courses in criminology, criminal justice, and international relations. It is an excellent primer for students seeking to understand the complexity of crime and justice in an international context.
