Global Perspective Assessment
The criminal justice system consists of three phases the police, courts and corrections. The focus of the criminal justice system is to ensure justice for all, by punishing the accused and rehabilitate while providing for the innocent (Garside, 2008). As the nation 's social, economic and technology age experience some key modifications, abroad crimes are pushing different challenges for the criminal justice systems. The most significant change is the growth of international crimes. These changes are forcing the criminal justice system to adapt to the changes in the types of crimes being committed and a growing need to understand the significance of how these crimes threaten the American borders. This paper will evaluate the globalization impact on the criminal justice system, compare and contrast the international criminal justice system, assess how cybercrime and technology affects the justice system. In the discussion will also be how the policing systems differ on a global spectrum, and identify some of the major crimes that affect the justice systems.
When talking about the term "globalization" one must first understand its meaning and how it refers to the criminal justice system. Globalization can be broadly defined as avoidable harms, which can spread across national borders for financial and economic gain (Gilbert & Russell, 2002). As the responses to the globalization continue to evolve, the needs of the criminal justice system must make changes at all levels. These changes must occur with the policy and law with significant importance on educating and providing training for specialist. Along with training and education there is a great need for the criminal justice professional to understand the difference in cultures and practices, as well as the legal aspect of other countries (Ward, 2000).
