O knihe
This book asks why sentencing remains an enigma, despite huge efforts world-wide to analyse, critique and reform it. Sentencing: a Social Process reveals how both research and policy-thinking about sentencing are dominated by a paradigm of presumed autonomous individualism, projecting an artificial image of sentencing practices. Tata proposes a fresh approach. By conceiving sentencing as a social process taken-for-granted binary oppositions, (e.g. rules versus discretion; aggravating versus mitigating factors; offence versus offender; individualisation versus consistency; punishment versus rehabilitation), can be reimagined. Advancing new research and policy agendas, the book releases fresh thinking about classic conundrums, including: ways of reducing imprisonment; the efficiency and the quality of justice; punishment and humane treatment; and technology and judgement.
