Despite the strong devotion to the principle of universal suffrage, criminal\u003cbr\u003eoffenders are still routinely deprived of active and passive franchise, while the justifications for such limitations remain elusive and incoherent. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eIn \u003cem\u003ePunishment and Citizenship\u003c\/em\u003e, Milena Tripkovic develops an empirical and normative account of criminal disenfranchisement. Starting from historical precedents of such restrictions and examining the current policies of a number of European countries, Tripkovic argues that while criminal\u003cbr\u003edisenfranchisement is considered a form of punishment, it should instead be viewed as a citizenship sanction imposed when a citizen fails to perform their role as a member of a political community. In order to determine the justifications of disenfranchisement, Tripkovic explores various citizenship\u003cbr\u003eideals and examines whether criminal offenders comply with the expectations that are posed before them. After developing a theoretical framework of citizenship duties, Tripkovic concludes that very few criminal offenders fail to satisfy fundamental citizenship conditions and exhaustive voting\u003cbr\u003erestrictions cannot ultimately be justified. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eA comprehensive assessment of criminal disenfranchisement, \u003cem\u003ePunishment and Citizenship\u003c\/em\u003e offers concrete policy suggestions to determine the limited circumstances under which electoral rights could justifiably be withheld from criminal offenders.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Milena Tripkovic\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Oxford University Press, USA\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 12\/24\/2018\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 192\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.55lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.40h x 6.20w x 0.90d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780190848620\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eChoice\u003c\/i\u003e 06\/01\/2019\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMilena Tripkovic\u003c\/strong\u003e is a Lecturer in the Birmingham Law School at the University of Birmingham.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Oxford University Press, USA","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":40377894076531,"sku":"9.78019E+12","price":129.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0555\/9255\/0515\/products\/img_73289b8c-fce3-43f3-bee0-d9989459e45e.jpg?v=1661261656","url":"https:\/\/bookstorenmore.com\/en-de\/products\/punishment-and-citizenship-a-theory-of-criminal-disenfranchisement-9780190848620","provider":"Bookstore N More","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
