This exploration of penal censure is inspired by the 40th
anniversary of the publication of Andreas von Hirsch's Doing
Justice, which opened up a fresh set of issues in theorisation
about punishment that eventually led von Hirsch to ground his
proposed model of desert-based sentencing on the notion of penal
censure. Von Hirsch's work thus provides an obvious starting-point
for an exploration of the importance of censure for the
justification of punishment, both within his theory of just deserts
and from the perspectives of other theoretical approaches. It also
provides an opportunity for engaging with censure more broadly from
philosophical, sociological-anthropological and
individual-psychological perspectives. The essays in this
collection map the conceptual territory of censure from these
different perspectives, address issues for desert theory that arise
from fuller understandings of censure, and consider afresh the role
of censure within the jurisprudence of punishment. They show that
analyses of censure from different vantage points can significantly
enrich punishment theory, not least by providing a conceptual basis
for perceiving common ground between and thus connecting different
strands of penal theory.
