Book excerpt: The editors examine politics, crime, and criminal justice in the US against a background of attempts to re-establish political accountability for the criminal justice process.

'Politics' is here defined as the relations of power and influence that occur between those who are professionally involved in the criminal justice system, and those who are part of the political apparatus.
