About the book
"Corlett's Responsibility and Punishment presents a defense of retributivism against several long-standing criticisms. In the end, a viable version of retributivism emerges as one which withstands more criticism than competing theories of responsibility and punishment. Extending the problem of wrongdoing to collectives and compensation, Corlett explores the matter of reparations for past wrongs in the case of the crimes committed against Native Americans by the United States Government. Academicians and professionals in ethics, moral, social, political and legal philosophy are likely to benefit from this analytical treatment of responsibility and punishment."--Jacket.
