Punishment and Privilege 2ed

By Graeme R. Newman.

How much should people be punished? Is an egalitarian distribution of punishment possible, or even desirable? Corporate criminals be punished more severely? Should disasters caused by corporations be treated as violent crimes and the executives punished accordingly? Sound modern? This collection of essays written in the 1990s is even more relevant in the 21st. century. Edited with a new and provocative introduction by leading authority on criminal punishment, Graeme R. Newman, Distinguished Professor Emeritus, University at Albany.
