Criminal Justice and Law Enforcement Annual: Global Perspectives (CJLE) is a peer-reviewed annual publishing current interdisciplinary research on a wide array of vital international subjects related to criminal justice systems. We seek to publish:

broad creative analyses of criminal justice systems or system components;
articles and treatises on power, social theory, and the apparatuses of crime and punishment;
comparative examinations;
explorations of the intersection/s between criminal justice systems and other social, political, or economic structures;
interdisciplinary and paradigm-challenging new work.

Articles in CJLE take advantage of the broader perspective that annual publication provides by tackling large interpretative questions, offering synthetic analyses of major methodologies, or considering new theoretical approaches to criminal justice studies in the widest and most international sense.
