Criminal (In)Justice presents an overview of the criminal justice system from the angle of critical criminology instead of the traditional 'this is who we are and this is what we do' approach. This book makes students ask why the system is what it is and why it does what it does--and what are the results of those actions.
-Milton C. Hill, Stephen F. Austin State University

Criminal (In)Justice: A Critical Introduction
takes an unflinching look at the American criminal justice system and the social forces that affect the implementation of justice. Author Aaron Fichtelberg uses a unique, critical perspective to introduce students to criminal justice and encourages them to look closer at the intersection of race, class, gender, and inequality in the criminal justice system. Covering each of the foundational areas of the criminal justice system--policing, courts, and corrections--this book takes an in-depth look at the influence of inequality, making it ideal for instructors who want students to critically assess and understand the American criminal justice system.
