Sommario/riassunto |
|
This is a full account of anti-death penalty activism in America during the years since the ten-year moratorium on executions ended in 1976. It traces the successful assault on capital punishment during the 1960s, and the struggle of abolitionists against the backlash since the mid-1970s. |
