Abstract

This paper explores the issue of racial disparities within the criminal justice system from a global perspective. It discusses the historical roots, the sociopolitical factors that perpetuate inequalities, and the international variations of racial discrimination in justice systems. Emphasis is placed on comparative analyses between countries, focusing on the U.S., the UK, and South Africa. The paper highlights the global movement toward reforming criminal justice policies and practices, proposing recommendations for tackling racial disparities through systemic change. By examining reforms such as restorative justice, implicit bias training, and the decriminalization of certain offenses, the paper advocates for more equitable systems that address the underlying issues of racial inequality.
