Descripción del artículo del vendedor

Hardcover. This book reviews the burgeoning literature on contemporary punishment and penal change, concentrating on the work of four scholars- David Garland, John Pratt, Hans Boutellier and Loic Wacquant. The book differs from classical reviews in that it places the scholars themselves, rather than the problem to be addressed, at the centre of the book. Daems argues that academics do not think and write in a vacuum, they carry a past with them and are influenced by newinsights and theories, and constantly need to reposition themselves within their own field and their political environment. This book, then, is as much about the selected authors as the stories they bring.It includes four large chapters devoted to the work of each author, offering an expose of their work framed within the context of their lives. It offers a discussion of their central ideas and their distinctive approach towards questions of penal change and an analysis of the relationship between their roles as scholars in an academic environment and citizens in a political community. The scholar-oriented approach allows the author to deal with questions related to criminology's publicpersuasiveness - a timely analysis in view of recent calls for criminologists and other social scientists to enter public debate more directly.This book is an accessible and importantcontribution to the debate on recent penal change, presented in a way that both experts and non-experts will be able to follow. It will be 2f interest to criminologists, sociologists, socio-legal scholars, and criminal lawyers and students. This book reviews the literature on contemporary punishment and examines the approaches of four leading scholars to questions of penal change, analysing the relationship between their roles as scholars in an academic environment and as citizens in a political community.
