Garrett."The way a society punishes demonstrates its commitment to standards of judgment and justice, its distinctive views of blame and responsibility, and its particular way of responding to evil. Punishment in Popular Culture examines the cultural presuppositions that undergird America's distinctive approach to punishment and analyzes punishment as a set of images. It recognizes that the semiotics of punishment is all around us, in both 'high' and 'popular' culture iconography, in novels, television, and film. This book brings together distinguished scholars of punishment and experts in media studies in an unusual juxtaposition of disciplines and perspectives. Americans continue to lock up more people for longer periods of time than most other nations, to use the death penalty, and to racialize punishment in remarkable ways. How are these facts of American penal life reflected in the portraits of punishment that Americans regularly encounter on television and in film?And how are images of punishment received by their audiences? It is to these questions that Punishment in Popular Culture is addressed"--Unedited summary from book cover.Charles Hamilton Houston Institute series on race and justice.Tv-sändningsaoFilmhistoriasaoStraffi filmensaoStrafe(DE-588)4183458-6gndTodesstrafe(DE-588)4448233-4gndFernsehsendung(DE-588)4016842-6gndFilm(DE-588)4017102-4gndTelevision broadcastingfast(OCoLC)fst01146714Punishment on televisionfast(OCoLC)fst01920678Punishment in motion picturesfast(OCoLC)fst01920677Motion picturesfast(OCoLC)fst0102728505.39 mass communication and mass media: other(NL-LeOCL)077592751bcl71.65 criminality as a social problem(NL-LeOCL)077597397bclTelevision broadcastingUnited StatesMotion picturesUnited StatesHistoryPunishment on televisionPunishment in motion picturesFörenta staternasaoVerenigde StatengttUSAgndUnited StatesfastHistory.Electronic books.
