About the book >.>.> Perspectives on Punishment: The Contours of Control is a scholarly collection edited by Sarah Armstrong and Lesley McAra, reflecting on the study of punishment two decades after the influential work The Power to Punish (1983). This volume gathers contributions from both the original authors and other prominent scholars in the field, who convened at the Scottish Criminology Conference in Edinburgh in September 2003. Each contributor was tasked with reflecting on the evolution of punishment research and relating it to their specific areas of expertise.Through a combination of new papers, the collection addresses the complexities and dynamics of punishment in contemporary society. It assesses the developments in theoretical frameworks and practical applications within the discipline, providing a comprehensive view of how the understanding of punishment has transformed over the years. The book not only revisits foundational ideas but also incorporates diverse perspectives from a range of disciplines, thereby enriching the discourse surrounding punitive practices and policies.The editorial team acknowledges the significant support received from various institutions, such as the British Academy and the School of Law at Edinburgh University, which facilitated the conference and subsequent publication. The collaborative effort was further strengthened by the intellectual contributions and discussions that took place in Edinburgh's Centre for Law and Society. This collection serves as a vital resource for scholars, students, and practitioners interested in the ongoing dialogue regarding punishment, civil liberties, and social control, making a noteworthy contribution to the field.
