This study is a Marxist analysis of capital punishment or the death penalty. The only detailed treatment of the subject by
Marx appeared in an article published in the New York Daily Tribune, February 18, 1853, and that treatment was only a sketch. Thus, the following study is an attempt to suggest what a reading
of Marx may contribute to an understanding of capital punishment. I conclude that abolition of the death penalty does not
need a Marxist justification, but a Marxist justification adds to the many arguments for that course of action. 相似文献

This article describes the process of decision making in caital cases in the overwhelmingly White justice system in two Georgia judicial circuits under Georgia's post-Furman death penalty statute. The study is intended to complement the statistical analyses done by other researchers in this area, by linking the behavior of various actors in the process over time to the incentives and sanctions of the system. The study shows how the system works to produce racial disparities and discrimination. Possible explanations for racial disparities and discrimination are examined. 相似文献

This paper is a limited attempt to synthesize the older and newer trends in radical criminology — to integrate the issues of criminalization, decriminalization, and victimization. The object of our endeavor is homelessness and how society responds to it. In the paper, we first examine the dialectics of criminalization, homelessness, and economic crisis in relation to some of the general trends in the developing political economy of welfare capitalism. Second, we argue that criminologists should support and focus on effort to criminalize the condition of homelessness and, at the same time, to decriminalize most of the acts of survival of the homeless. In pursuing this end, we urge criminologists to respond by doing things with rather than for or to the homeless. Ultimately, we hope this paper contributes to the ideological and practical struggle for achieving stable institutional methods for satisfying basic human needs. 相似文献

This study examines the influence on death penalty opinions of participating in a college class on the death penalty. Students
in the class (the experimental group) and in another class offered at the same time (the control group) were asked to complete
a questionnaire regarding their attitudes toward capital punishment at the beginning and at the end of the semester. They
were also asked factual questions that measured their knowledge about capital punishment. Overall, the results of the study
suggest that both groups were not well informed during the pretest measure. However, at the end of the semester, the group
enrolled in the death penalty class were more knowledgable, less supportive of the death penalty based on general/absrtact
questions, and more likely to favor alternatives to capital punishment than were the students in the control group. 相似文献

This paper argues that anomie theories are aspects of the more comprehensive, but neglected theory of alienation. The dominant
dimension of anomie theories (particularly Durkheim’s version) is normlessness, which is only one of five dimensions of alienation
theory. A practical implication of this insight is that anomie theory relies heavily on a Durkheimian focus on the role of
normlessness in guiding criminal justice policy, while the other dimensions of alienation theory-powerlessness, meaninglessness,
isolation and self-estrangement—have been deemphasized or ignored. By including all dimensions of the alienation concept,
an integrated theory of crime and more effective crime control strategies can be formulated. 相似文献
