                  EDITOR'S   COMMENTS

    The purpose of the Journal of Contemporary Criminal Jus-
tice is to promote inquiry, stimulate thought, present new con-
cepts, focus on future trends, provide expanded publishing op-
portunities and foster closer relationships between the criminal
justice practitioner and the academician.
    This not-for-profit communications vehicle is designed to
serve as a media  representation of the broad-based criminal
justice community. The Journal is managed by the Department
of Criminal  Justice, School of Applied Arts and  Sciences,
California State University, Long Beach, with a nationally-
based  editorial staff. The Journal is solely self-supported
through subscription and donation. Commerical advertising is
neither solicited nor accepted. Individuals, organizations and
companies  making in-kind contributions or making significant
donations are listed in the Founders Circle, which is limited
to one hundred (100) founders.
    This journal supports no political ideology, nor is it affiliated
with any organization. The journal does not seek to influence
the reader; it only seeks to inform. Political bias, should it occur,
is the sole responsibility of the contributing authors. Journal
objectivity and academic integrity is maintained by accepting
manuscripts  on face value and publishing upon the rigorous
blind review of three independent judges.
    This journal is a collective venture, involving many people
endeavoring to seriously promote the concepts of vocational and
educational professionalism. Understandably, these two  de-
scriptors are not viewed as mutually exclusive terms. Building
a communications  bridge between criminal justice field profes-
sionals and academia is viewed as a most desirable by-product.
To this end, the editorial staff has a representative mix, and the
manuscript review process includes the review by a field profes-
sional working within the topical area or journal theme.
    On behalf of the editorial staff, I wish to express our appreci-
ation and thanks to each organization and individual who has
contributed to the Journal of Contemporary Criminal Justice.
