Recenzii
In this book, John Kleinig and Margaret Leland Smith, two well-known and insightful thinkers in the criminal justice ethics field, offer readers an exciting look at cutting-edge issues in correctional ethics. Contributions to this edited volume are first-rate and highlight the moral dilemmas faced by society, correctional personnel at all levels, and by those who are sentenced under American criminal law today. This excellent book misses nothing; with topics ranging from a discussion of whether a workable correctional ethics is even possible, to a consideration of moral issues involving gender and race.
Discretion, Community, and Correctional Ethics has a refreshingly large sense of the terrain of correctional ethics-something all too frequently absent from texts on professional ethics. Questions and qualms about the moral justification of incarceration and about the very possibility of 'correctional ethics' are raised from the start and provide the continuing backdrop against which specific issues-health care behind bars, sexual exploitation of female prisoners, staff-management relations, and others-are discussed in intelligent and illuminating ways. Among the authors are correctional practitioners and academics from a wide variety of disciplines. In my view, this is how professional ethics ought to be addressed.
Both collectively and singularly, the voices heard in this volume remind us that correctional practice cannot be reduced, as it often is these days, to antiseptic considerations of efficiency and effectiveness. The authors illuminate that the core challenge of the correctional enterprise is to act ethically-to maintain an abiding respect for humanity in the face of daunting day-to-day circumstances. Readers will be appropriately provoked to question their easy acceptance of current correctional practices and moved to envision how an evolving correctional ethic might guide us toward a new penology that is uplifting to both keepers and the kept.
