본문내용
Punishment has long been used to deter and limit criminal behaviour for the benefit of society. There are many different types of punishments for many different reasons, and they can be temporary or lifelong. However, at this point, we need to know the ultimate reason as to why punishment should be implemented. In terms of reasons for punishment, Emile Durkheim’s theory of the necessity of punishment will be provided, which is to maintain order in society based on morality and the solidarity of the members of society (Smith, 2014). This will also be illustrated with examples of mass incarceration in America and Halden Prison in Norway to show that the functions and purposes of punishment can differ depending on the national and cultural context with the theory of governmentality.참고 자료
