Rights Forfeiture and Punishment
Oxford, UK: Oxford University Press (2016)
Abstract
In Rights Forfeiture and Punishment, Christopher Heath Wellman argues that those who seek to defend the moral permissibility of punishment should shift their focus from general justifying aims to moral side constraints. On Wellman's view, punishment is permissible just in case the wrongdoer has forfeited her right against punishment.Author's Profile
