520 | 8 | _aThe need for & the threats to improved public policy are equally acute. Crime policy agenda continues to be driven by anecdotal evidence & political ideology, resulting in a patchwork of programs, policies, & practices. All-too-frequently, the need for them is uncertain, they rest on unclear theoretical foundations, they are implemented poorly, & their effectiveness in preventing or controlling crime, or furthering justice, is unknown. Putting research evidence at centre-stage in political & policy decisions can go a long way to addressing this state of affairs by ensuring that the best available data informs decisions that affect the public good. Situated within this wider context, this handbook showcases much of what is right with evidence-based crime & justice policy as well as confronts the challenges that it faces today & looking forward. | |
