| Summary: | This book is a collection of essays that cover a range of topics on law and politics, culled from a long and rich experience of writing and continual participation in public affairs. The essays were, for the most part, delivered as keynote lectures given at international meetings in different venues in Africa, America and Europe. The lead essay on which the book's title is anchored, crime and punishment in America, is concerned with a persistently recurring social (and legal) problem in the United States that has eluded satisfactory resolution for generations. |
