The Politics of Imprisonment: How the Democratic Process Shapes the Way America Punishes Offenders - Studies in Crime and Public Policy
Barker, Vanessa (Assistant Professor of Criminology, Assistant Professor of Criminology, Florida State University)
The Politics of Imprisonment examines how the democratic process and social trust shape penal sanctioning in the United States. Drawing on a range of archival sources, Barker shows that higher levels of civic engagement tend to support milder punishments whereas lower levels tend to support more coercive criminal justice policies.
