Questioning Punishment, Paperback/Anastasia Chamberlen

This book questions punishment as concept, social phenomenon and contemporary practice. It unpacks punishment's nature and the assumptions that underpin it, examines its targets, objectives and implications, and aims to unsettle the idea that there is something common-sensical, necessary and unavoidable about punitive justice.
