God's Just Vengeance: Crime, Violence and the Rhetoric of Salvation - Cambridge Studies in Ideology and Religion
Gorringe, Timothy (University of Exeter)
This 1996 book examines the relationship between the theologies of atonement and penal strategies. Gorringe argues that 'satisfaction theory' led to retributive policies. He reviews theory and practice in the twentieth century, and makes concrete proposals for both theology and criminal and societal violence.
