At a time when criminal justice systems appear to be in a permanent state of crisis, leading scholars from criminology and theology come together to challenge criminal justice orthodoxy by questioning the dominance of retributive punishment.
This timely and unique contribution considers alternatives that draw on Christian ideas of hope, mercy and restoration.
Promoting cross-disciplinary learning, the book will be of interest to academics and students of criminology, socio-legal studies, legal philosophy, public theology and religious studies, as well as practitioners and policy makers.
Professor Andrew Millie's work is interdisciplinary and draws on criminology, philosophy and theology. His most recent book for Bristol University Press is "Criminology and Public Theology" (2020). Other titles include "Philosophical Criminology" (2016) and "Securing Respect" (2009). Andrew is Professor of Criminology at Edge Hill University in the UK, and is editor of the Bristol University Press book series "New Horizons in Criminology".
