  • Punishing Race

    A Continuing American Dilemma

    de Michael Tonry ...
    Series series Studies in Crime and Public Policy
    How can it be, in a nation that elected Barack Obama, that one third of African American males born in 2001 will spend time in a state or federal prison, and that black men are seven times likelier than white men to be in prison? Blacks are much more likely than whites to be stopped by the police, arrested, prosecuted, convicted, and imprisoned, and are much less likely to have confidence in ... Leer más

  • Thinking about Crime

    Sense and Sensibility in American Penal Culture

    de Michael Tonry ...
    Series series Studies in Crime and Public Policy
    Crime is an American preoccupation. Campaigns such as "the war on drugs," zero tolerance policing, and three strikes and you're out--not to mention the ever-shrill coverage of crime stories-all suggest a perpetually outraged nation determined to keep its criminal element at bay, no matter the cost. But is this really what average Americans think about crime and crime control measures? Or is the ... Leer más

  • Crime and Justice, Volume 49: Organizing Crime

    Mafias, Markets, and Networks

    Edición de Michael Tonry, Peter Reuter ...
    Series series Crime and Justice: A Review of Research
    For most Americans, The Godfather, The Sopranos, and the Cosa Nostra exemplify organized crime. In Asia the term conjures up images of Japanese yakuza and Chinese triads, in Italy the Cosa Nostra and ‘Ndrangheta, in Latin America Mexican narco-gangs and Colombian drug cartels, in the Netherlands transnational drug and human trafficking, and in Scandinavia outlaw motorcycle gangs. Some but not all ... Leer más

  • The Future of Imprisonment

    Edición de Michael Tonry ...
    The imprisonment rate in America has grown by a factor of five since 1972. In that time, punishment policies have toughened, compassion for prisoners has diminished, and prisons have gotten worse-a stark contrast to the origins of the prison 200 years ago as a humanitarian reform, a substitute for capital and corporal punishment and banishment. So what went wrong? How can prisons be made ... Leer más

  • The Handbook of Crime and Punishment

    Edición de Michael Tonry ...
    Crime is one of the most significant political issues in contemporary American society. Crime control statistics and punishment policies are subjects of constant partisan debate, while the media presents sensationalized stories of criminal activity and over-crowded prisons. In the highly politicized arena of crime and justice, empirical data and reasoned analysis are often overlook or ignored. The ... Leer más

  • Doing Justice, Preventing Crime

    de Michael Tonry ...
    Series series Studies in Crime and Public Policy
    Punishment policies and practices in the United States today are unprincipled, chaotic, and much too often unjust. The financial costs are enormous. The moral cost is greater: countless individual injustices, mass incarceration, the world's highest imprisonment rate, extreme disparities, especially affecting members of racial and ethnic minority groups, high rates of wrongful conviction, assembly ...

  • Of One-eyed and Toothless Miscreants

    Making the Punishment Fit the Crime?

    Edición de Michael Tonry ...
    Series series Studies in Crime and Public Policy
    Can punishments ever meaningfully be proportioned in severity to the seriousness of the crimes for which they are imposed? A great deal of attention has been paid to the general justification of punishment, but the thorny practical questions have received significantly less. Serious analysis has seldom delved into what makes crimes more or less serious, what makes punishments more or less severe, ... Leer más

    Penal Reform in America, 1975-2025

    de Michael Tonry ...
    Series series Studies in Crime and Public Policy
    Almost everyone agrees--Right on Crime, the ACLU, Koch Industries, George Soros's Open Society Foundation, the editorial boards of the New York Times and the Wall Street Journal--that America's current systems for sentencing criminal offenders are a shambles, with crazy quilts of incompatible and conflicting laws, policies, and practices in every state and the federal system. Most everyone agrees ... Leer más
