"This extraordinary volume presents a description of a new cutting edge model of research on crime and our society’s efforts to reduce it. This work demonstrates that the criminal justice system is not a single funnel but a series of locally determined problems and locally crafted crime control responses that together determine CJ policy."—John McDevitt, Institute on Race and Justice, Northeastern University

"The New Criminal Justice proposes a model of cooperation and collaborative problem solving organizations that stresses multiplicative power rather than additive power, local focus rather than standardization and action research rather than basic research. This book will give students a much deeper appreciation of the complexities of the criminal justice system beyond the more simplistic systems approach."—James Meeker, Criminology, Law & Society, University of California, Irvine

"Klofas, Hipple, and McGarrell have expertly assembled an important collection of readings. These innovative articles together in one volume paired with helpful section overviews and discussion questions makes this a vital contribution to the field, and presents a possible paradigm switch in the way we should think about criminal justice."—Geoffrey Alpert, Criminology and Criminal Justice, University of South Carolina

"John Klofas, Natalie Hipple and Ed McGarrell have compiled an excellent volume, far more than just a collection of chapters. Like many edited books, there are outstanding contributions, with important findings and policy statements. Unlike most edited books, however, this volume highlights one of the most important new themes in criminal justice in the past decade. It is not an overstatement to say that this book lays out the model for the new criminal justice."—Scott H. Decker, Director,Criminology and Criminal Justice, Arizona State University
