\n\; \; \; \; \; \; \; \; \; \; These categories define the scope of the project.

The signed articles\, with cross-references are accompanied by pedagogical elements\, including a Reader&rsquo\;s Guide\, Chronology of Criminal Justice Ethics\, Resource Guide\, Glossary\, and thorough index.
\nThe market for the encyclopedia is composed of undergraduate college and university students within such programs as criminology\, criminal justice\, corrections\, sociology\, psychology\, pre-law\, history of ethics\, philosophy\, and other social sciences\, and also patrons of public libraries seeking more information about ethics within the criminal justice system in the United States and internationally.
