About the Book

Criminal Disenfranchisement in an International Perspective is a groundbreaking work that examines the complex and controversial issue of criminal disenfranchisement from a global standpoint. Drawing upon extensive research and analysis, this book provides a comprehensive understanding of the historical, legal, and sociological aspects of criminal disenfranchisement in various countries around the world.

The book begins by exploring the historical origins of criminal disenfranchisement, tracing its roots back to ancient Greece and Rome. It then examines the different rationales for criminal disenfranchisement, including the belief that criminals are not fit to participate in the political process and the fear that they will use their votes to undermine the rule of law.

The book goes on to provide a detailed overview of the laws and policies governing criminal disenfranchisement in a number of countries, including the United States, the United Kingdom, Canada, Australia, and New Zealand. It compares and contrasts the different approaches to criminal disenfranchisement in these countries, and highlights the key factors that have shaped their respective policies.

The book also examines the impact of criminal disenfranchisement on individuals, communities, and the democratic process. It argues that criminal disenfranchisement has a number of negative consequences, including reducing the political power of marginalized communities, undermining the legitimacy of the political system, and perpetuating cycles of crime and poverty.

The book concludes by offering a number of recommendations for reforming criminal disenfranchisement laws and policies. It argues that the goal of criminal justice should be to rehabilitate offenders and reintegrate them into society, not to permanently deprive them of their voting rights.
