Drawing together a distinguished group of interdisciplinary scholars, it explores the way "deviant" subjects are constructed and made available for punishment, the philosophical context within which decisions about punishment are made, and the inner workings of the penal apparatus. Diverse in their theoretical inspirations and approaches, the articles published here represent a significant advance in our understanding of the complex intersections of punishment, politics, and culture.Studies in law, politics, and society ;v. 37.PunishmentPhilosophyCriminal lawPhilosophyCriminalsPublic opinionImprisonmentSocial aspectsImprisonmentMoral and ethical aspectsCriminalsRehabilitationPunishmentPhilosophy.Criminal lawPhilosophy.CriminalsPublic opinion.ImprisonmentSocial aspects.ImprisonmentMoral and ethical aspects.CriminalsRehabilitation.303.36Sarat Austin254475MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910818686303321Crime and punishment4036945UNINA
