1 J. Ethnicity Crim. Just. 1 (2003)

handle is hein.journals/wecj1 and id is 1 raw text is: EDITORIAL The purpose of the Journal of Ethnicity in Criminal Justice is two-fold. It provides the opportunity for criminal justice professionals and practitioners in the field to address the issues of ethnicity, crime, and criminal justice and the reader with current and emerging issues in the field. The term ethnicity applies to group of individuals whose identity is distinctive in terms of common cultural traditions or heritage. Conse- quently, articles for this journal will include not only those on racial groups but also on groups of people who share a common culture as well. I am delighted and honored to have been selected to serve as Editor of this journal and will do my best to maintain a standard of excellence. This journal is designed to disseminate significant and scholarly crimi- nological and criminal justice research on ethnic/racial groups. It will consist of articles that reflect a wide range of substantive interests, theo- retical applications and orientations, and methodological analyses. In addition to publishing full-length articles, I welcome Research Notes, Book Reviews, and Review Essays which cover multiple works by the same author or two or more books on the same subject. Also, I am hop- ing that the journal will serve the international criminal justice commu- nity as well. I would, therefore, like to encourage manuscripts from scholars from all parts of the world.
