Perspectives on Punishment

"This book offers a collection of contemporary research into the problems of crime control and punishment. It has three interrelated aims: to take stock of current thinking on punishment, regulation, and control in the early years of a new century and in the wake of a number of critical junctures including 9/11, which have transformed the social, political, and cultural environment; to present a selection of the diverse epistemological and methodological frameworks which inform current research; and finally to set out some fruitful directions for the future study of punishment."--Jacket.
