This book is for researchers, students and those interested in the implications of globalisation for our understanding of crime control and criminal justice. It provides multidisciplinary insights and will be of interest to students of criminology, criminal justice, socio-legal studies, law, international relations, politics, sociology, social policy and urban studies.
Criminal justice has traditionally been associated with the nation state, its legitimacy and its authority. The growing internationalisation of crime control raises crucial and complex questions about the future shape of justice and urban governance as these are experienced at local, national and international realms. The emergence of new international justice institutions such as the International Criminal Court, the greater movement of people and goods across national borders and the transfer of criminal justice policies between different jurisdictions all present novel challenges to criminal justice systems as well as our understandings of criminal justice. This volume of essays explores the implications and impact of criminal justice developments in an increasingly globalised world. It offers cutting-edge conceptual contributions from leading international commentators organised around the themes of international criminal justice institutions and practices; comparative penal policies; and international and comparative urban governance and crime control.

Adam Crawford is Professor of Criminology and Criminal Justice and Director of the Centre for Criminal Justice Studies at the University of Leeds. He is a leading international specialist and has published extensively in the fields of crime prevention, policing, criminal justice policy, comparative criminology and restorative justice.
