Book Description
The Routledge Handbook of International Criminology brings together the latest thinking and findings from a diverse group of both senior and promising young scholars from around the globe. This collaborative project articulates a new way of thinking about criminology that extends existing perspectives in understanding crime and social control across borders, jurisdictions, and cultures, and facilitates the development of an overarching framework that is truly international. The book is divided into three parts, in which three distinct yet overlapping types of crime are analyzed: international crime, transnational crime, and national crime. Each of these perspectives is then articulated through a number of chapters which cover theory and methods, international and transnational crime analyses, and case studies of criminology and criminal justice in relevant nations. In addition, questions placed at the end of each chapter encourage greater reflection on the issues raised, and will encourage young scholars to move the field of inquiry forward. This handbook is an excellent reference tool for undergraduate and graduate students with particular interests in research methods, international criminology, and making comparisons across countries.

Book Description
En esta obra se analiza la realidad carcelaria desde una perspectiva multidisciplinaria y conglomerada del derecho y la ciencia política, antropología, sociología y criminología. En consonancia con el estudio de las innumerables criticas criminológicas que recibe la pena de prisión, sumado a la incapacidad ostensible de cumplir su finalidad, evitando la reincidencia criminal y otros conflictos graves acaecidos en su seno, se arriba a la conclusión, que incumbe al derecho penal, de reafirmar su estatus de saber reductor y limitador del poder punitivo para salvaguardar el Estado de Derecho. En este orden de ideas, se proponen una serie de puniciones alternativas y complementarias a la privación de la libertad que podrían resultar eficaces y eficientes a la hora de satisfacer el reclamo social de sanción ante la comisión de determinados delitos.

Book Description
Most people believe that criminal justice in Colombia is rife with impunity and corruption. Elvira María Restrepo delves beneath such beliefs to reveal a system driven at a fundamental level by fear and distrust from outside the system itself. With the present difficulties in the country tantamount to a state of irregular war, the judiciary is in crisis. It has to contribute to the construction of peace and the reconstruction of trust, or perish.
