Justice and punishment: the rationale of coercion
New York: 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.Author's Profile
