A propos de cet article

Hardcover, English-language edition, vi + 242 pages, NOT ex-library. Minor handling wear only, likely unread. Book is clean and bright with unmarked text, free of inscriptions and stamps, firmly bound. Issued without a dust jacket. --- Have attitudes toward punishment - punitivity - changed in recent years? Was punitivity more moderate in the 1960s and 1970s? Probably! Since 1980 attitudinal changes have swept most democracies including Japan and Canada favoring stronger punishments toward offenders. As in so many things the United States pointed the way. A sharply rising crime rate there sparked loud demands for greater punishment, i.e., for revenge, whether it deterred crime or not. It didn't. In fact if anything it amplified crime. The volume presents international texts discussing the problem. --- Contents: Punitivity: An Introduction [A Dual Approach]; Punitiveness in Cross-National Comparison: Toward a Historically and Institutionally Grounded Multi-Factorial Approach / Joachim J. Savelsberg [Introduction: Are Prophets of a Punitive Europe Right?; Comparing Germany (Europe) and the United States; Crime as a Basis for Punitiveness?; National Culture?; Concluding Thoughts]; Crime, Fear, and the Demand for Punishment in the United States / Ashley M.
