  • Publication Details

    Book, Oxford University Press, 2005
  • Description

    In DEATH BY DESIGN, research psychologist Craig Haney argues that capital punishment, and particularly the sequence of events that lead to death sentencing itself, is maintained through a complex and elaborate social psychological system that distances and disengages us from the true nature of the task. Because these social psychological forces are systemic in nature - built into the very system of death sentencing itself - Haney concludes by suggesting a number of inter-locking reforms, derived directly from empirical research on capital punishment, that are needed to increase the fairness and reliability of the process.

    Stuart Banner
  • Publication Details

    Book, Harvard University Press, 2002
  • Description

    The death penalty arouses our passions as does few other issues. Law professor Stuart Banner tells the story of how, over four centuries, dramatic changes have taken place in the ways capital punishment has been administered and experienced. In the twentieth and twenty-first centuries, ironically, as it has become a quiet, sanitary, technological procedure, the death penalty is as divisive as ever. The Death Penalty is invaluable in understanding the American way of the ultimate punishment. (automatically summarized from Amazon.com)
