Cullen (U. of Cincinnati) and Jonson (Northern Kentucky U.) present an introduction to correctional theory in the United States. They are guided in their presentation by three core themes: that theories about the purpose and structure of corrections matters to correctional policy and practice, that the social and political context of US society helps shape correctional theory and practice, and that correctional theory and practice must be evidence-based. The authors examine both mainstream correctional theories of deterrence and incapacitation, as well as alternative approaches such as restorative justice and early intervention.
