Serving as the only New Zealandspecific criminal justice text, this book takes a direct look at what is unique about the country's criminal justice system and recent crime trends. Crime rates peaked in the early 1990s and have fallen since. Newbold considers why this happened through factors such as economy, ethnic composition, changing cultural trends, and legislative developments in policing and criminal justice. He unpacks various types of crime separatelyviolent crime, property crime, drug crime, gang crime, organised crime, etc.and examines each in terms of the various complex factors affecting it, using illustrative examples from recent high-profile cases. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe cover photo for \u003cem\u003eCrime, Law and Justice in New Zealand\u003c\/em\u003e was taken by Jono Rotman.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTrade Review\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003eMany New Zealanders have their own theories on crime, its causes, and\u003cbr\u003esolutions, generally based on a limited understanding of the complexities\u003cbr\u003eof the topic.
