Civil Liberties and the Changing 21st-Century Criminal Justice System in America explores the effect of globalization and world markets on free labor, the practice of global social control, terrorism and indefinite sentencing in America’s prison systems. The tragedy of 9/11 and the ensuing global economic collapse of world markets thrust America onto a world stage where its responsibility to define, punish and confront deviance on both the domestic and international level defines its key responsibility within the new world order. This book focuses on the challenges the American correctional system faces within the construct of the new world order.
