Penal Coercion in Contexts of Social Injustice
Criminal Law and Philosophy 5 (1):21-38 (2011)
| Abstract | This article addresses the theoretical difficulty of justifying the use of penal coercion in circumstances of marked, unjustified social inequality. The intuitive belief behind the text is that in such a context—that of an indecent State—justifying penal coercion becomes very problematic, particularly when directed against the most disfavored members of society | |||||||||
