Rethinking Justice (eBook, ePUB)

Inside America's Movement for Prosecution Reform

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

In the criminal justice system, people are cast into polar positions on the good-bad axis: good guys and bad guys. Prosecutors, who wield considerable power and influence in the enforcement of our laws, are almost universally cast as good guys. Seldom is there accountability when they are, in fact, not always good.

Rethinking Justice: Inside America's Movement for Prosecution Reform introduces a newly minted generation of prosecutors, intent on holding the entire system accountable and changing the way we handle crime in America.

• Explore how a prevailing philosophy of retributive over restorative justice has contributed to mass incarceration.
• Discover what happens when civil servants go beyond filling prisons to address systemic injustices.
• Meet Portsmouth Commonwealth Attorney Stephanie Morales, whose investment in crime prevention, community building, and restorative justice could provide a model for widespread reform.

Through stories and insights from district attorneys, legal scholars, and survivors of a perilously flawed system, Rethinking Justice imagines the tough-on-crime D.A. role recast as a "progressive prosecutor." Is this political paradox even possible?
