Criminal justice systems vary widely across the world in their approaches to the problem of crime. This book presents the theme that a country's legal model to a great extent determines the character of its police and corrections as well as its legal system. It examines these different systems and is a useful reference guide for all criminal justice professionals. 0aCriminal justice, Administration of2Local 0aComparative law2Local1 aDas, Dilip K.d1941-2Local
