Criminal Justice

New Chapter on Reintegration into the Community. New to the third edition, this chapter explores community reintegration efforts for incarcerated individuals when they are released from custody. As a critical element in the criminal justice system, the chapter explores the complexity of the reintegration process in Canada and the relationship between successful reintegration and the recidivism rate.

Extensive updates to Chapter 3. The Policing chapter has been substantially revised to expand on discussions of diversity, including updated wording in all box features with an increased focus on making language and coverage more inclusive. A new box feature has also been added on policing during the COVID-19 pandemic.

New Diversity Feature. New to this edition, the Diversity Wins new box feature explores the connection to and impact of diversity (or lack thereof) in the criminal justice system.
