This course explores mercy and justice in the context of the contemporary American prison. Students will examine the evolution of mass incarceration in the United States during the past half-century; the ways in which race, gender, and class are implicated in the American criminal justice system; and the theory and practice of restorative and rehabilitative forms of justice. Note: this course will meet weekly off campus at a local prison, and will include incarcerated students.
