Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book is a historical examination of how societies construct the concept of crime and punishment. The author draws on historical and philosophical perspectives on the nature of justice to question how we decide what behaviors ought to be considered criminal and how we determine what punishments are fair. Throughout, the book argues that punishment should be focused not on revenge, but on the goal of preventing crime and rehabilitating criminals. This volume is an important contribution to our understanding of the history and philosophy of punishment and offers insights that are relevant to contemporary debates on criminal justice.
