Description:
The World Factbook of Criminal Justice Systems is a collection of reports, organised alphabetically by country, containing information about the criminal justice system in operation in each country. The Bureau of Justice Statistics, US Department of Justice, has funded the factbook. Each narrative has been composed by an expert in the field. The factbook is aimed at giving scholars, researchers and criminal justice practitioners a better understanding of the various systems in operation in each country in an attempt to help them in their work, especially in the area of transnational crime. 42 of the descriptions were completed in 1993, with a further five added in 2002. The text is available as ASCII text files.
