Community Justice
Community Justice discusses concepts of community within the context of justice policy and programs and addresses the important relationship between the criminal justice system and the community in the USA. Taking a bold stance in the criminal justice debate, this book argues that crime management is more effective through the use of informal (as opposed to formal) social control.It demonstrates how an increasing number of criminal justice elements are beginning to understand that developing partnerships within the community that enhance informal social control will lead to stabilization and possibly a decline in crime, especially violent crime, and make communities more livable.Borrowing from an eclectic toolbox of ideas and strategies – community organizing, environmental crime prevention, private–public partnerships, and justice initiatives – Community Justice puts forward a new approach to establishing safe communities and highlights the failure of the current American justice system in its lack of vision and misuse of resources. This book is essential for undergraduate and postgraduate students of criminology, law, and sociology.It provides detailed information about how community justice fits within each area of the criminal justice system and includes relevant case studies to exemplify this philosophy in action.

Digital Technology and Justice : Justice Apps
Justice apps – mobile and web-based programmes that can assist individuals with legal tasks – are being produced, improved, and accessed at an unprecedented rate.These technologies have the potential to reshape the justice system, improve access to justice, and demystify legal institutions.Using artificial intelligence techniques, apps can even facilitate the resolution of common legal disputes.However, these opportunities must be assessed in light of the many challenges associated with app use in the justice sector.These include the digital divide and other accessibility issues; the ethical challenges raised by the dehumanisation of legal processes; and various privacy, security, and confidentiality risks.Surveying the landscape of this emergent industry, this book explores the objectives, opportunities, and challenges presented by apps across all areas of the justice sector.Detailed consideration is also given to the use of justice apps in specific legal contexts, including the family law and criminal law sectors.The first book to engage with justice apps, this book will appeal to a wide range of legal scholars, students, practitioners, and policy-makers.

Culture, Diversity, and Criminal Justice : Towards Culturally Safe Criminal Justice Systems
This ground-breaking textbook engages readers in conversation about responding to the effects of diversity within formal criminal justice systems in Westernized nation-states.Moving past a binary concept of diversity that involves only race and gender, this book elaborates upon a wide variety of other forms of diversity, including sexuality, disability, mental health, gendered identity, refugees, the young and the ageing, and culturally and linguistically diverse (CALD) peoples, with an awareness of how intersecting identities make some people more vulnerable than others.With reported statistics providing only a snapshot of the incongruent experiences of diverse minorities in contact with criminal justice systems, there is a clear need for nuanced training and accessible information regarding diversity in criminal justice.The book examines diversity in terms of both criminal justice agents and justice-involved individuals such as people in prison, those convicted of crimes, the victimized, and the community.This volume brings together a group of international scholars to articulate on each of the identified populations, examining the effect of culture and diversity on criminal justice outcomes and outlining how those diverse perspectives can improve criminal justice service delivery overall.Incorporating case studies, reflections, and activity questions, this book is a valuable resource for courses in criminology, criminal justice, corrections, and law enforcement, and is ideal for any program focusing on multiculturalism and diversity in criminal justice.Scholars, researchers, and professionals will also benefit from the analysis.

'Revenge or Justice?'
Revenge is driven by a desire to inflict harm or suffering on someone in response to a perceived wrongdoing, often without consideration for fairness or due process. Justice, on the other hand, is about restoring balance and fairness by holding individuals accountable for their actions through a fair and impartial legal process. While revenge may provide temporary satisfaction, it often perpetuates a cycle of harm and does not address the root causes of the conflict. Justice, on the other hand, seeks to address the underlying issues and promote healing and reconciliation. Ultimately, justice is a more sustainable and constructive approach to resolving conflicts and addressing wrongdoing.

Water Management : Prioritizing Justice and Sustainability
Flooding in California. Drought and famine in the Horn of Africa. Massive fish kills in Texas and Australia. “Foreverchemicals” in US drinking water. Similar headlines are sure to dominate the news in the years ahead.What is sometimesmissing from the headlines, though, is an understanding that these diverse problems are related: manifestations of seriousunderlying stresses on our water systems.These stresses require sustained attention from water managers, scientists,policymakers, and the public, even after the headlines have faded.That attention, in turn, requires a sharedunderstanding of how water systems function, the problems facing them, and the tools available to increase theirresilience. This text fills that need by providing the necessary knowledge base for understanding and managing complex waterproblems.It is geared primarily towards students in water management courses at the undergraduate and graduate levelsbut will also be a helpful resource for practicing water professionals who want to get new ideas or a broader view of thesubject. Rather than focusing on one type of water problem (as many water books do), this text explores the entire gamut of waterissues, from dams to desalination, from flooding to famine, from prior appropriation to pumped storage, from sanitationto stormwater. And rather than teaching from one disciplinary perspective (as many water books do), it looks at waterproblems through a variety of lenses: hydrology, climate science, ecology, and engineering, but also law, economics,history, and environmental justice.The result is a concise yet comprehensive introduction to one of the most critical anddemanding challenges of our time: developing just and sustainable solutions to water management.

Justice is not necessarily an illusion, but rather a complex and often imperfect concept. While the idea of justice may vary depending on cultural, social, and individual perspectives, it remains a fundamental principle in many legal systems.
