The Social Contexts of Criminal Sentencing - Research in Criminology
Author: Martha A. Myers, Susette M. Talarico
Criminal punishment today also considers the social contexts of the criminal. The book traces changes in both legislation and sentencing patterns over a 9-year period and explores the extent to which county, court and temporal contexts affect both the sentences offenders receive and the rules judges use to inform their sentencing decisions.
