Incarceration and Ethics

Shawn Klein March 24th, 2009

We have just finished up discussing the moral justifications of punishment in my ethics classes. I thought those students might be interested in the current issue of CATO Unbound. This month’s issue, “Behind Bars in the Land of the Free,” discusses issues connected to incarceration rates, including questions of racial equality.

From the Cato Unbound website:

We’ve gathered together an all-star team of scholars to grappple with this fraught but profoundly important issue. Brown University’s Glenn Loury, author of the recent book Race, Incarceration, and American Values, offers this month’s lead essay. We’ll have replies from the University of Maryland economist John R. Lott, Harvard University sociologist Bruce Western, and eminent political scientist James Q. Wilson the Ronald Reagan Professor of Public Policy at Pepperdine University.
