Volume 37 of "Studies in Law, Politics, and Society" presents a
special issue devoted to exploring humanistic perspectives on the
subject of punishment. Drawing together a distinguished group of
interdisciplinary scholars, it explores the way "deviant" subjects
are constructed and made available for punishment, the
philosophical context within which decisions about punishment are
made, and the inner workings of the penal apparatus. Diverse in
their theoretical inspirations and approaches, the articles
published here represent a significant advance in our understanding
of the complex intersections of punishment, politics, and culture.
