Reviews

Through strong analysis and rich detail, this book is a critical invitation to readers to trace the intersection of politics and punishments, and to understand punishments in a broader context of political and public policy discourse. Paul Taylor, University of Chester I always look forward to reading the work of Ian Cummins and here he provides an authoritative, accessible account of the evolution of toxic 'welfare' politics. Paul Michael Garrett, NUI Galway
