Communitarianism and professionalism: a values oriented approach to criminal justice technology

Article Abstract:

Democratic communitarianism is a sociological theory that upholds the collective rights of a community which are manifested by the government.

The limitations of criminal justice technology based on a moral and social context should also be considered. The education of the future generation on moral values such as respect, discipline and justice cannot be entrusted to technology alone.
