Synopsis

This book provides a comparative constitutional analysis of executive clemency, with a focus on death penalty cases. Comparative executive clemency has never been the subject of a full-length comparative constitutional analysis, and the breadth of jurisdictions contained in this book-encompassing the entire English-speaking world-provides a full range of cultural and political variations in the level of deference given to executive decision-making.
