Criminal Justice Research Is about People.

Conrad, John P.

Crime and Delinquency, v28 n4 p618-26 Oct 1982

Suggests that the Golden Age of criminal justice research has ended with an impending era of austerity. Reviews the work done in the past forty years and recommends a return to the people-oriented research that characterized the Chicago School of the early '20s rather than systems research.
