Two Issues For the US CJS

Issue No 1: High Intensivity Causing

High Incarceration Rate

Issue No 2.: High Selectivity Causing

distorted Prison Population Distribution


6/23

Issue 1.Intensivity:Potential Causes

Why More ofOur Citizens

are inPrisonsComparedwith

another

Country ?

A.Our People are More Criminallydisposed

B.The CJS (Criminal Justice System) is hyper sensitive

Remember :These are the Only Possible Fundamental Causes

CJS (the criminal Justice System ) = The membrane which sendspeople to Prison


7/23

Issue1. Causal Analysis As there are only two fundamental

causes ,we list themA. Our People are More Criminally disposed

A is not tenable since by circular reasoning it will imply the Govt also

is voted and run by such Citizens Thus we conclude

B.The CJS (Criminal Justice System) is hyper

sensitive We will Analyse this factor B in Later slides while

we take up Issue 2 in the Next Slide

Why MoreReds are

in thePrison

thoughthey are aMinority?

C.Reds are More Criminally disposed

D.The CJS (Criminal Justice System) is a

biased filer

Issue 2 .Selectivity:Potential Causes



9/23

Issue 2. Causal Analysis

As there are only two fundamentalcauses here again ,we list them

C. Reds are More Criminally disposed

Possible, we will Analyse this factor Later Thus we conclude

D.The CJS (Criminal Justice System) is a

biased filter

Possible again, and we will Analyse this factor too
