Wood on Punishment Nonconsequentialism

By Lawrence Solum

ADVERTISEMENTS
David Alan Russell Wood (University of Melbourne - Law School) has posted Punishment: Nonconsequentialism (Philosophy Compass, Volume 5/6, 2010) on SSRN. Here is the abstract:
    A companion to ?Punishment: Consequentialism?, and also ?Punishment: The Future?, this paper examines various nonconsequentialist attempts to justify punishment, that is, attempts that appeal to claims concerning the innate worth or intrinsic character of punishment, quite apart from any consequential good or benefit punishment may be thought to produce. The paper starts with retributive theories, and turns then to the denunciation and expressive theories, before considering combined communicative- retributive theories.
