Today, crime and punishment remain significant parts of our culture, but societies vary greatly on what is considered criminal and how it should be punished. In this global survey of crime and punishment throughout history, Mitchel P. Roth examines how and why we penalize certain activities, and he scrutinizes the effectiveness of such efforts in both punishing wrongdoers and bringing a sense of justice to victims. 606 $aPunishment$xHistory 606 $aCrime$xHistory 606 $aCriminal justice, Administration of$xHistory 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aPunishment$xHistory. 615 0$aCrime$xHistory. 615 0$aCriminal justice, Administration of$xHistory. 676 $a364.609 700 $aRoth$b Mitchel P.$0895663 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910461153203321 996 $aAn eye for an eye$92179104 997 $aUNINA
