520 |a What ends do we expect and hope to serve in punishing criminal wrongdoers? Does the punishment of offenders do more harm than good for American society? In The Case against Punishment, Deirdre Golash addresses these and other questions about the value of punishment in contemporary society.

Asserting that punishment inflicts both intended and unintended harms on offenders, Golash suggests that crime can be reduced by addressing.
