Looking for a way to find information on criminology-related issues?
This page compiles links to sites dealing with criminal justice;
corrections and life inside a prison;
restorative justice;
crime prevention; victims of crime;
juvenile delinquency; and law enforcement.
I have also included government and media sites
that you may want to look at as well. Links to grad programmes in
criminology at Canadian Universities can also be accessed from this
page. There are no full text docs on this page - only links to sites
related to criminal justice and criminology issues in some way. At the
bottom of this page, there are some links to up-coming conferences
and congresses that might be of interest.
The focus is on Canadian sites, but I have included other sites in
cases where I couldn't find enough links to Canadian
sources. I will not be able to update these pages for the next little while
as I am about to lose net access. Once that is restored, I will begin updating
again and I will also re-activate an email link for suggestions, comments, etc.
Click on any of the following for a list of links on that
topic.
Here you'll find mainly comprehensive sites that cover a variety of issues in the
criminal justice area. I have also included mass media links - but
beware, unfortunately they don't archive their stuff on the web yet...
Most of them only publish some of their stories in their
on-line editions and only keep them there for a few days.
Check them out, though, if your topic is making the news
right now....
Links to Canadian government sites relevant in criminal justice (e.g.,
Solicitor General) or those of a more general interest (e.g., Stats Canada).
Also includes links to all provincial and territorial governments.
Get an idea of what prisoners have
to say - through poetry, diaries, drawings etc. Also includes a
link to a newsletter put out by correctional workers.
