I just saw the contents of the August 2018 issue of the journal Criminology & Public Policy, and now I have at least half-dozen new pieces to add to my reading list. The issue has collections of pieces on timely topics such as "Risk Assessment And Juvenile Justice" and "Victim Compensation And White -Collar Crime" and "Downsizing Our Prisons And Jails" and "Prison Length Of Stay And Recidivism." Here are just a few of the article on these topics that seem worth checking out:
-
"Can We Downsize Our Prisons and Jails Without Compromising Public Safety?: Findings from California’s Prop 47" by Bradley Bartos and Charis Kubrin
-
"Relationship Between Prison Length of Stay and Recidivism: A Study Using Regression Discontinuity and Instrumental Variables With Multiple Break Points" by William Rhodes, Gerald Gaes, Ryan Kling, and Christopher Cutler
-
"Sentence Length and Recidivism: Evidence and the Challenges of Criminal Justice Reform in the Carceral State" by Sara Wakefield
