Abstract

Abstract This chapter addresses three issues concerning the relationship between criminological scholarship (broadly conceived) and criminal justice policy. It examines the lack of any clear, agreed framework of principle for the conduct or reform of criminal justice practices; it considers the increasing politicization of criminal justice within national politics; and it analyses the impact of this politicization on the project-widely endorsed by criminal justice scholars but rarely realized in policy development-of moving towards a more principled, transparent, and legitimate criminal justice practice.
