Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - This book builds on Heffernan's last bookRights and Wrongs:Rethinking the Foundations of Criminal Justiceby examining the class and racial disparities at the heart of current law - disparities that, according to many, generate a system of criminalinjustice.It argues that these disparities run throughout the legal system; they're present in policing, corrections, and sentencing. Itdiscussesthe relationship betweenthe two kinds of justice-social justice and criminal justiceand how to ensurefairness in state-imposed punishment.Ittheorises the extent to which criminal law must address considerations of social justice to ensurea fair system. Itproposes a framework for analyzing disparities, provides an overview of contemporary research concerning them, and offers reform proposals for addressing them. Written in an accessible way, itintroduces readers tophilosophical theory and doctrines in constitutional law and thus it speaks to a wideaudience concerned about racial and class disparities in the criminal justice system.It responds to a half-century's worth of public concern about the legitimacy of the state's exercise of its penal power while explaining the pertinence of social justice principles to the criminal justice system.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - This book seeks to explain why the concept of justice is critical to the study of criminal justice. Heffernan makes such a case by treating state-sponsored punishment as the defining feature of criminal justice. In particular, this work accounts for the state's role as a surrogate for victims of wrongdoing, and so makes it possible to integrate victimology scholarship into its justice-based framework. In arguing that punishment may be imposed only for wrongdoing, the book proposes a criterion for repudiating the legal paternalism that informs drug-possession laws. Rethinking the Foundations of Criminal Justice outlines steps for taming the state's power to punish offenders; in particular, it draws on restorative justice research to outline possibilities for a penology that emphasizes offenders' humanity.Through its examination of equality issues, the book integrates recent work on the social justice/criminal justice connection into the scholarly literature on punishment, and so will particularly appeal to those interested in criminal justice theory.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - This book explains a paradox in American constitutional law: how a right not discussed during the ratification debates at Philadelphia and not mentioned in the text has become a core component of modern freedom.Rather, privacy is a constitutional afterthought that has gained force through modern interpretations of an old text. Heffernan defends privacy rights against originalist objections to its inclusion in modern constitutional doctrine, analyzes the structure of privacy claims, and provides a blueprint for protecting privacy against government incursion.The book will appeal to a wide audience of students and researchers of criminal procedure, constitutional history, law-and-society, and sociology of law. Lawyers will find this book extremely valuable in addressing the statutory issues associated with modern privacy law.At last, a book about constitutional interpretation that speaks plain English and makes sense. It's the best work I know on the subject, yet that subject is not the one it's mostly about. The book mostly tells the story of the constitutional right to privacy and how it emerged from provisions that at the outset were not much about privacy at all. On that subject, the book is definitive. It's also fascinating, probing, engaging, insightful, and wonderfully presented. Privacy and the American Constitution is a stellar contribution to knowledge.Albert W. Alschuler, Julius Kreeger of Law and Criminology, Emeritus, University of ChicagoA powerful and innovate contribution to constitutional law. Not only does Heffernan offer us a fascinating and persuasive account of how modern constitutional rights grew out of the personal space offered to us in an earlier era, he also explains why privacy rights deserve the newfound importance they have in our modern jurisprudence, based upon the same Madisonian approach to constitutional interpretation that justifies other central parts of modern constitutional law.Marc Jonathan Blitz, Alan Joseph Bennett Professor of Law, Oklahoma City University School of Law.
