(EDT), ISBN 0816526532, ISBN-13 9780816526536, Like New Used, Free shipping in the US Native Americans are represented disproportionately as offenders in the American criminal justice system, and notably so in the southwest and north-central parts of the country. Editors Nielsen (criminology and criminal justice, Northern Arizona U.), Silverman (sociology, Queens U. of Kingston, Canada), and 10 co-contributors (many of them native Americans) explore that phenomenon of over-representation and its circumstances and how the American criminal justice system affects native Americans on both sides of the law. Written as a textbook with a contemporary perspective on native American studies, it introduces students to a range of concerns and issues that are the elements of that field of study, including criminal justice and criminology, law, sociology, and anthropology.
