An Interesting Book for those interested in Social Justice

The FPLC library has recently acquired a new title, Controlling the
Dangerous Classes, a Critical Introduction to the History of Criminal
Justice by Randall G. Shelden. Shelden states, "The case cannot be
overstated that, in general, the criminal justice system focuses
primarily on those crimes that have the highest probabilities of being
committed by the poorest segments of our society, and almost virtually
ignores those crimes committed by the richest segments of our society,
crimes that actually harm us the most." For anyone interested in
representing the under-represented this would make good semester-break
reading. The book's call number is HV 9950 .S54 2001. Check it out.
