On the margins of the malestream (or, they still don’t get it, do they?): Feminist analyses in criminal justice education

This paper is a critical review of the Fall 1992 issue of the Journal of Criminal Justice Education (JCJE), which focused on women in criminal justice education. The review concentrates on three educational areas: curriculum, pedagogy, and the campus climate for students and faculty. Feminism has had a clear effect in each of these areas, but it has not been enough to transform criminology/criminal justice education so that gender is a central organizing theme. Feminist criminology/criminal justice education seems to remain at the margins of the “male-stream.”.
