A crisis triggered procedure is applied to analysis of the criminal justice system of the United States; in particular, the develop ment of a "crisis triggered" computer simulation model of the criminal justice system is reported. The model is then used to identify potential major crises that have occurred or are ex pected to occur in the criminal justice system, to simulate them, and to study alternative regimes or patterns of recovery that the system may undergo.

Key Words: criminal justice • crisis management • crisis simulation
