Full Description
This thought-provoking and timely book focuses on the pressing issues surrounding criminal justice and policy reform through the examination of flaws and biases within the criminal justice system. It highlights the disproportionate incarceration rates faced by marginalized individuals and the far-reaching consequences for families and communities. The heart of the book lies in the dismantling of the pipelines to prisons. It explores the systemic factors that contribute to the pipelines, including issues surrounding school, educational, child welfare, and foster care policies. By shedding light on how these policies can funnel individuals into the criminal justice system, the book underscores the importance of addressing root causes and offering alternative pathways.
Drawing on restorative justice principles, the book advocates for a transformative approach that promotes repairing harm, healing, and rebuilding relationships. It explores successful restorative justice practices and progress that have yielded positive results for both victims and offenders. Throughout, the book emphasizes the need for comprehensive policy reform in order to effect lasting change. It analyzes existing policies, identifying areas for improvement and advocating for a shift towards equitable, just, and human-centered approaches. Lastly, the book aims to inspire readers to engage in meaningful discussions, advocate for policy reform, and support restorative justice practices, with the vision of a future in which justice is not just punitive, but also healing, transformative, and imbued with a sense of fairness for all.
This book is best suited for upper-level undergraduates, graduate students and researchers, and practitioners in criminal justice fields and mental health professions working with offender populations.
