Seventeen contributions from international academics consider the trend towards punitiveness in contemporary penal practice in the U.S. and other Western countries. A sampling of topics includes conditions in supermaximum security housing for inmates on Arizona's death row; electronic monitoring of convicts in England and Wales; and the penal modernism of the Canadian criminal justice system. The concluding chapters analyze some of the reasons behind this "new toughness." Distributed in the U.S. by ISBS. Annotation ©2004 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
