- Exploring Modern Probation : Social Theory and Organisational Complexity, Paperback by Whitehead, Philip, ISBN 1847423485, ISBN-13 9781847423481, Like New Used, Free shipping in the US
Whitehead (criminal and social justice, Teesside U.) presents a critique of the Probation Services in England and Wales since the 1997 election of the New Labor Party. The work examines the modernization that has taken place within the criminal justice system and ways in which the culture of the organization has been impacted. Using the ideas of social theorists such as Weber, Durkheim, Marx, and Foucault, the volume explores the shift in organizational emphasis to a more politicized, punitive, and bureaucratic manner of functioning under New Labor. Organized into six chapters, the volume includes several tables and graphs. Readers interested in Britain's criminal justice system, policy makers, and those in the probation field will appreciate this work. Annotation ©2010 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR ()
