Excerpt from Criminal Responsibility and Social Constraint
Among the most expensive functions of government is that which is concerned with the detection, arrest, trial, and punishment of criminals. The expenditures in connection with police, courts, and prisons exceed in amount the outlay for the conservation and improvement of health, the necessities and conveniences of travel and intercourse, highways, parks, and playgrounds, and about equal the costs of education.
When any one begins to philosophize about the raison d'être of this enormously expensive arrangement for dealing with crime and criminals, he naturally asks first for its purpose - What is the object of it all? What kind of return does this investment bring in? Society has schools for the ignorant. It has accident stations, ambulance corps, dispensaries, and hospitals for the injured and diseased. It has special educational institutions for the feeble-minded, the blind, the deaf, and the dumb. It has homes for the aged, the infirm, and the incapacitated.

Criminal Responsibility and Social Constraint (Classic Reprint)
Print-on-DemandAnbieter: Forgotten Books, London, Vereinigtes Königreich
Verkäuferbewertung 5 von 5 Sternen
Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book examines the aims of criminal punishment and their historic evolution. The author argues that the four main purposes of punishment are: retribution (causing harm to an offender to match harm done to a victim), deterrence (preventing future crime through the threat of punishment), reformation (rehabilitating or improving the offender), and expiation (cleansing or purifying the offender). The author considers the strengths and weaknesses of each theory, ultimately rejecting expiation as an unrealistic and unachievable goal. This book explores the complex history, motivations, and justifications surrounding criminal punishment in Western society, and offers valuable insights for understanding the principles and practices of modern criminal law. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers 9781330256947_0
