The Ethics of Capital Punishment: A Philosophical Investigation of Evil and its Consequences
Kramer, Matthew (Professor of Legal & Political Philosophy, Professor of Legal & Political Philosophy, University of Cambridge)
Taking a fresh look at a central controversy in criminal law theory, The Ethics of Capital Punishment presents a rationale for the death penalty grounded in a theory of the nature of evil and the nature of defilement. Original, unsettling, and deeply controversial, it will be an essential reference point for future debates on the subject.
