As incapacitation has replaced rehabilitation as the dominant ideology of punishment, reflecting a shift from an identification with defendants to an identification with victims, the war on crime has victimized offenders and victims alike. What we need instead, Dubber argues, is a system which adequately recognizes both victims and defendants as persons. Victims in the War on Crime is the first book to provide a critical analysis of the role of victims in the criminal justice system as a whole. It also breaks new ground in focusing not only on the victims of crime, but also on those of the war on victimless crime. After first offering an original critique of the American penal system in the age of the crime war, Dubber undertakes an incisive comparative reading of American criminal law and the law of crime victim compensation, culminating in a wide-ranging revision that takes victims seriously, and offenders as well. Dubber here salvages the project of vindicating victims' rights for its own sake, rather than as a weapon in the war against criminals. Uncovering the legitimate core of the victims' rights movement from underneath existing layers of bellicose rhetoric, he demonstrates how victims' rights can help us build a system of American criminal justice after the frenzy of the war on crime has died down.Critical America.MenschenrechtgndVerbrechensopfergndBekämpfunggndKriminalitätgndVictims of crimesLegal status, laws, etcfast(OCoLC)fst01166298Victims of crimesfast(OCoLC)fst01166285Criminal lawfast(OCoLC)fst00883328Criminal justice, Administration offast(OCoLC)fst00883246CrimeGovernment policyfast(OCoLC)fst00882995POLITICAL SCIENCEPublic PolicySocial Services & WelfarebisacshPOLITICAL SCIENCEPublic PolicySocial SecuritybisacshDroit penalÉtats-UnisJustice penaleAdministrationÉtats-UnisCrimes sans victimePolitique gouvernementaleÉtats-UnisCriminalitePolitique gouvernementaleÉtats-UnisVictimes d'actes criminelsDroitÉtats-UnisVictimes d'actes criminelsÉtats-UnisCriminal lawUnited StatesCriminal justice, Administration ofUnited StatesCrimes without victimsGovernment policyUnited StatesCrimeGovernment policyUnited StatesVictims of crimesLegal status, laws, etcUnited StatesVictims of crimesUnited StatesUnited StatesfastMenschenrecht.Verbrechensopfer.Bekämpfung.Kriminalität.Victims of crimesLegal status, laws, etc.Victims of crimes.Criminal law.Criminal justice, Administration of.CrimeGovernment policy.POLITICAL SCIENCEPublic PolicySocial Services & Welfare.POLITICAL SCIENCEPublic PolicySocial Security.Droit penalJustice penaleAdministrationCrimes sans victimePolitique gouvernementaleCriminalitePolitique gouvernementaleVictimes d'actes criminelsDroitVictimes d'actes criminelsCriminal lawCriminal justice, Administration ofCrimes without victimsGovernment policyCrimeGovernment policyVictims of crimesLegal status, laws, etc.Victims of crimes362.880973Dubber Markus Dirk760559MdBmJHUPMdBmJHUPBOOK9910845067003321Victims in the War on Crime4128407UNINA
