| Coordinator(s) | John Scott (jscott6@une.edu.au) | |||||||||
| Unit Description |
The unit aims to provide a substantial introduction to the organisation, policies, practices and institutions that constitute the Australian Criminal Justice System. Broadly, this unit takes a scholarly, but more specifically a sociological approach towards the Australian Criminal Justice System. Sociological concepts such as class, race, gender, and ethnicity will be encountered, alongside specifically criminological concepts. The course is taught through a combination of traditional and problem-based teaching approaches. |
