Book Description

For a very long time, various academic fields, including philosophy, criminology, legal studies, psychiatry, and psychology, have been asking fundamental concerns regarding punishment: What is the reason for it? In what ways may various ideas help us better understand its nature? Is there a more effective alternative to being punished? Is there no complexity to it? In what ways might our understanding of punishment be improved by incorporating findings from the empirical sciences? What aspects of our psyche, our biology, and our social environment are influenced by the practice of corporal punishment? How is the concept of punishment and its application interpreted and carried out differently in various societies?

The Routledge Handbook of the Philosophy and Science of Punishment (PDF) is the first major reference work to deal with these and other key problems in depth. It offers 31 chapters written by an international and interdisciplinary collection of experts and is compiled into a single volume. It covers the primary theoretical approaches to punishment and its alternatives; emerging research from psychology, biology, and social neuroscience; and essential particular issues such as the side-effects of punishment and solitary confinement; stigmatization and racism; the risk and protective factors for antisocial behavior; and victims' wants and rights. The Routledge Handbook is divided into four distinct sections, which are as follows:

 

 

  • Theories of Punishment and Current Perspectives on Their Application
  • Perspectives on Crime and Punishment from a Philosophical Standpoint
  • III. The Sciences; Preventative Measures; and Criminal Sanctions
  • Possible Substitutes for the Existing Methods of Punishment
