Justice and Punishment: The Rationale of Coercion
Oxford University Press (2000)
| Abstract | This book aims to answer the question of why, and by what right, some people punish others. With a groundbreaking new theory, Matravers argues that the justification of punishment must be embedded in a larger political and moral theory. He also uses the problem of punishment to undermine contemporary accounts of justice. | |||||||||
