Crime prevention is essential to the success of any civilization. Effective criminal justice systems contribute greatly to the prevention of crime. However, clashing traditional and modern theories regarding appropriate action within criminal justice organizations can cause these systems to fail even when personnel is beyond reproach. Successfully blending traditional and modern theories on criminal justice can bolster justice systems and allow them to be successful. Comparative Criminology Across Western and African Perspectives is a critical scholarly publication that addresses comparative issues pertaining to empirical research and theoretical frameworks on criminology in Africa. Highlighting topics such as policing ethics, criminal theory, and victims’ rights, this book is ideal for academicians, law enforcement, victim advocates, lawmakers, correctional officers, correctional rehabilitation counselors, criminologists, researchers, policymakers, government officials, and students.

This book considers an expanded role for criminology in the study of collective violence that resulted in international crimes against humanity committed by collectivities on a communal basis. If the goal of the international criminal justice system is to foster peace and reconciliation in the aftermath of crimes against humanity, what victims of these crimes perceive as justice should trump other considerations. Dr. Sungi exposes the weakness of Western-based international adjudication in this process and provides indigenous justice alternatives as a response.
