Dishonored offenders were often stigmatized in both formal and informal ways, as their convictions shaped how they were treated in prisons, their position in the labour market, and their access to rehabilitative resources. With a focus on Imperial Germany's criminal policies and their afterlives in the Weimar era, Citizens into Dishonored Felons demonstrates how criminal punishment was never solely a disciplinary measure, but that it reflected a national moral compass that authorities used to dictate the rights to citizenship, honour and trust.Studies in German history (Oxford University Press) ;Volume 28.Citizens Into Dishonored FelonsEx-convictsSuffrageGermanyFelon disenfranchisementGermanyGermanyPolitics and government1789-1900Ex-convictsSuffrageFelon disenfranchisement364.8094309034De Groot Timon1359172German Historical Institute Washingtonfndhttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/fndNjHacINjHaclBOOK996552371803316Citizens into dishonored felons3372998UNISA
