 COURTS, LAW, AND PROCEDURE

From the Preface

“Although the criminal justice and

the civil justice ‘systems’ are often
thought of as separate and unique,
there is but one institution – the
American ‘system’ of courts. It has
a single, central goal, which is to
do justice. Therefore, this book
incorporates discussions of both
criminal and civil matters that
come before the courts by providing
a context in which the various
functions of courts are examined.”

are thoroughly examined. This text is ideal for undergraduate and introductory graduate courses in

Media and Criminal Justice

The CSI Effect
Dennis J. Stevens, PhD, University of North Carolina—Charlotte,
Belmont Abbey College

Media and Criminal Justice: The CSI Effect illustrates how media
coverage and television programs influence the public’s perception of
criminal justice. Fiction is often mistaken for reality, and this phenomenon,
called “The CSI Effect,” adds to the assumption that all criminal cases can
be easily solved through the employment of high-tech forensic science,
as depicted on television crime shows. Over 400 prosecutors assist in
explaining the CSI Effect’s influence, which reinforces America’s troubled
wars on crime, junkies, poverty, and immigrants, and produces a greater
tolerance of official misconduct and an escalation of wrongful convictions.
This text explores common misconceptions and their consequences
and provides readers with the ability to critically analyze information
promoted by the media and entertainment.

Myths and Realities of Crime and Justice

What Every American Should Know
Steven E. Barkan, PhD
George J. Bryjak, PhD

Americans know relatively little about the reality of crime and the criminal
justice system in the United States, and most of their knowledge is a loose
collection of haphazardly accumulated truths, half-truths, and outright
falsehoods. The American public’s perception of crime is out of line with
crime reality. One consequence of such misinformation on the prevalence
of violent crime is that many people are more afraid of being the victim of a
violent crime than they realistically should be. Myths and Realities of Crime
and Justice provides readers with an accurate and up-to-date picture of crime
and justice in America. It presents many recent findings from criminologists
and criminal justice practitioners and debunks common misconceptions.

ethnicity play in the American criminal justice system. The concepts of
race and ethnicity will be evaluated with respect to crime, victimization,
policing, courts and sentencing, corrections, and the death penalty. A
statistical overview and theories associated with the current trends are also
explored. Readers will be encouraged to form an opinion on whether or not
injustice based on race and ethnicity is a problem, whether or not the laws
as written are biased, and whether or not people of particular racial/ethnic
backgrounds are prone to commit more crime.
