Civic Repentance: Rights & Responsibilities

Contribuţii de Gordon Bazemore, David Carney, Amitai Etzioni, Estelle Frankel, Patrick Glynn, John O. Haley, Jeffrey L. Harrison, Stanley Platman
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 22 apr 1999
This collection of essays by scholars of diverse backgrounds explores the notion of repentance in our culture, focusing on individuals who have been excluded from society as a result of violating its laws. What must these individuals do to gain redemption and be readmitted? Amitai Etzioni argues that the lack of a well-grounded concept of civic repentance has significant negative social consequences for our society. Denying people the opportunity to regain their social standing and membership in their communities is simply unfair, and the absence of such opportunities for restoration through repentance exacts heavy social costs. The essays in this collection address these issues from a variety of perspectives and discuss possible ways of filling this void, including restorative justice, physician rehabilitation programs, and religious reconciliation rituals.
