Abstract
[EDITOR’S Note] America lost a renowned criminologist from the academic world when Dr. Hippchen, a member of the American Society of Criminology and the Academy of Criminal Justice Sciences, died January 21, 1982, at the age of 58. Dr. Hippchen, a professor in the Department of Administration of Justice and Public Safety, Virginia Commonwealth University, Richmond, Virginia, was regarded as a champion of “World Criminology,” “International Criminal Justice,” and “Comparative Criminology.” Moreover, Dr. Hippchen was a pioneer in his areas of specialization, e.g., evaluation research, classification and treatment of delinquents and criminals, biochemical aspects of delinquent and criminal behavior, world order models of social justice, comparative/international criminology, and nutrition. He promoted the sense of world order. For many years, he advocated criminal rehabilitation combined with good nutrition and spiritual involvement. Dr. Hippchen published numerous chapters in books, wrote many books, monographs, and articles. He was best known in correctional fields, criminal justice education, comparative criminology, and juvenile justice. He was very active in many professional societies. Dr. Hippchen originally submitted this article as a book chapter, to be included in the proposed book entitled INTERNATIONAL CRIMINOLOGY AND CRIMINAL JUSTICE. After a lapse of several years, the editor asked Dr. Armstrong to revise and update the article. The Editor wishes to take this opportunity to thank Dr. Armstrong for his contribution to this article. Last but not least, if this article serves to fulfill a portion of Dr. Hippchen's lifelong desires and dedication in promoting world peace, then we must consider this article has achieved its mission, goals, and objectives.
