Alabama. 330 3 $aExactly how is it we think the ends of justice are accomplished by means of sentencing a convict to a term in prison? How do we relate a quantitative measure of time--months and years--to the objectives of deterring crime, punishing wrongdoers, and accomplishing a quality of justice for those touched by a criminal act? Linda Meyer investigates these questions, examining the disconnect between our two basic modes of thinking about time--chronologically (seconds, minutes, hours), or phenomenologically (observing, taking note of, or being aware of the passing of time). Meyer asks whether--in overlooking the irreconcilability of these two modes of thinking about time--we are failing to accomplish anything near to the ends we believe the criminal justice system is designed to serve. Drawing on work in philosophy, legal theory, jurisprudence, and the history of penology, Meyer explores how, rather than condemning prisoners to an experience of time bereft of meaning, we might instead make the experience of incarceration constructively meaningful--and thus better aligned with social objectives of deterring crime, reforming offenders, and restoring justice. 410 0$aPublic works (Amherst, Mass.) 606 $aSentences (Criminal procedure)$zUnited States 606 $aPrison sentences$zUnited States 606 $aCriminal justice, Administration of$zUnited States 615 0$aSentences (Criminal procedure) 615 0$aPrison sentences 615 0$aCriminal justice, Administration of 686 $aLAW000000$aLAW026020$aLAW027000$2bisacsh 700 $aMeyer$b Linda$f1962-$01168721 801 0$bEYM 801 1$bEYM 801 2$bEYM 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910514194303321 996 $aSentencing in Time$92783208 997 $aUNINA
