Reviews
Dr. Ruback's authoritative volume is a must-read for scholars and policy-makers interested in shaping behavior through economic sanctions. Impressively, Dr. Ruback's book summarizes and integrates 20 years of interdisciplinary empirical research on economic sanctions by his and others' research teams to develop cogent and practical policy recommendations. -Brian Cutler, Professor, Ontario Tech University Professor Ruback has been the leading expert on economic sanctions in the U.S. for decades. This book is an essential resource for anyone worried about the financial penalties that are stacked on to people who get caught up in American criminal justice systems. Many are driven more deeply into poverty, which cannot be good for their successful reintegration into society. -Kevin R. Reitz, James Annenberg La Vea Professor of Law, University of Minnesota A wide-ranging study of the ethical, criminological, legal and policy implications of economic sanctions in US criminal justice. By combining this analysis with extensive empirical research into all phases of the imposition of money sanctions, Ruback provides an invaluable addition to the rapidly growing criminological literature on fines, restitution and related penalties in the criminal justice system. - Pat O'Malley, PhD, FASSA, Distinguished Honorary Professor, School of Sociology, Research School of Social Sciences, Australian National University
