The Changing Role of Women in the Criminal Justice System: Offenders, Victims, and Professionals

Editorial Reviews
Book Description
Scholarly, comprehensive, yet immensely readable! This revised edition incorporates more recent thinking in the discipline regarding the feminist perspective and applies conflict theory to examine the slow but progressive changes in the roles of women in criminal justice agencies. Part I addresses the processing of women offenders through a male-dominated system. Part II discusses women as victims not only of male offenders but also of the attitudes and policies of officials in the system. Part III considers women as professionals in the criminal justice system. Nine new chapters were written specifically for this revision.
