More about the book

Focusing on the concept of justice, the book examines state-sponsored punishment as a fundamental aspect of criminal justice. It highlights the state's role in representing victims, integrating victimology into its justice framework. The author argues that punishment should only be applied for actual wrongdoing, providing a basis to challenge the legal paternalism present in drug-possession laws. This work aims to redefine the relationship between justice, punishment, and victimization within the criminal justice system.
