Description

This Routledge book examines how economic processes shape modern punishment systems and penal policy across the globe. Bringing together leading researchers from diverse geographical contexts, it reframes the theoretical field of the political economy of punishment by analysing penality within current economic situations and connecting contemporary penal changes to neoliberal capitalism. Over the last fifteen years, the analytical field has witnessed increased research developing connections between economic transformations and the evolution of incarceration rates. The book addresses how shifts in capitalist economies directly influence criminal justice systems, offering critical perspectives on punishment today from multiple standpoints and geographical regions. Essential for scholars, policymakers, and students studying the intersection of economics, criminology, and social policy.
