GOV 231 POL OF CRIMNL JUST PROCESS

This course considers the role of politics in the administration of criminal justice in the United States by focusing upon the steps and actors in that process. Two assumptions underlie this consideration: 1) the judicial process is best understood when considered as a subsystem of the larger political system, and 2) political considerations, defined broadly, largely explain how individuals fare within that system.
