Title | Comments on Gregg Caruso's Rejecting Retributivism: Free Will, Punishment, And Criminal Justice |
---|---|
Author | Mccormick, Kelly |
Date | 3/31/2023 |
Description | In Rejecting Retributivism Gregg Caruso offers ambitious arguments for thinking that our current retributive system of criminal punishment should be abandoned. First, Caruso offers six powerful reasons for rejecting retributivism itself, on the grounds that legal punishment cannot adequately be retributively justified. Second, Caruso proposes, develops, and defends the public health-quarantine model, arguing that it provides us with a more normatively adequate system for dealing with criminal behavior than retributive punishment. |
