International perspectives on abolitionism.Voices from imprisoned and marginalized communities.Social movements and abolition organizing.The Routledge International Handbook of Penal Abolition is organized around six key themes: Penal abolitionists question the legitimacy of criminal law, policing, courts, prisons and more broadly the idea of punishment, to argue that rather than effectively handling or solving social problems, interpersonal disputes, conflicts and harms, they actually increase individual and societal problems. The Routledge International Handbook of Penal Abolition provides an authoritative and comprehensive look at the latest developments in the 21 st-century penal abolitionism movement, both reflecting on key critical thought and setting the agenda for local and global abolitionist ideas and interventions over the coming decade.
