Description

The Ends of Harm by Oxford University Press examines the profound philosophical question of how modern democratic states can justify the imprisonment of thousands of offenders annually, despite the severe psychological and physical harm, destroyed relationships, and lost employment opportunities that result. This Oxford Legal Philosophy work addresses the traditional philosophical debate between retributivism-the view that punishment of wrongdoers is inherently good-and consequentialist approaches that treat punishment as a regrettable but necessary means to valuable social ends such as deterrence. The book provides rigorous moral and legal analysis for readers seeking to understand the ethical foundations underlying criminal law systems, exploring how societies can reconcile the brutality and expense of incarceration with principles of justice and human dignity.

Key Features

The Ends of Harm offers Oxford Legal Philosophy scholarship examining the moral justification for criminal punishment and imprisonment.

This work by Oxford University Press addresses retributivism and consequentialist theories of criminal law with philosophical rigour.

The book explores how modern democratic states justify depriving offenders of liberty whilst acknowledging the psychological and physical harm caused.

Readers will gain insight into philosophical debates about deterrence, justice, and the ethical foundations of criminal sanctions.

This legal philosophy text provides comprehensive analysis suitable for students and scholars of criminal law and moral philosophy.
