Punishment and Privilege Graeme Newman

How much should people be punished? Is an egalitarian distribution of punishment possible, or even desirable? Should white collar and corporate criminals be punished more severely? Should disasters caused by corporations be treated as crimes and the executives punished accordingly? Sound modern? This collection of essays written in the 1990s by eminent sociologists, philosophers and political scientists, is even more relevant in the 21st. century. Edited with a new and provocative introduction by leading authority on criminal punishment, Graeme Newman. .
