EXCLUDED - THE CURRENT STATUS OF AFRICAN-AMERICAN SCHOLARS IN THE FIELD OF CRIMINOLOGY AND CRIMINAL-JUSTICE

This article attempts to generate thoughtful dialogue about the perspectives of African-American criminologists, the extent to which they have been excluded from the field of criminology and criminal justice, and methods by which they can be included in efforts to reduce crime and delinquency. Its primary objective is to encourage scholars and policymakers to include the perspectives advanced by African-American criminologists. © 1991, SAGE PUBLICATIONS. All rights reserved.
