This edited volume evaluates a wide range of criminal-justice interventions employed primarily in Britain and other Western countries for their effectiveness in reducing crime. The contributors assess policies including policing, sentencing, rehabilitation, youth interventions, and community-based programs — using empirical data to analyze what works, what doesn’t, and under what conditions crime can be effectively reduced.
