Punishing the Other draws on the work of Zygmunt Bauman to discuss contemporary discourses and practices of punishment and criminalization. Bringing together some of the most exciting international scholars, both established and emerging, this book engages with Baumans thesis of the social production of immorality in the context of criminalization and social control and addresses processes of othering through a range of contemporary case studies situated in various cultural, political and social contexts.Topics covered include the increasing bureaucratization of the business of punishment with the corresponding loss of moral and ethical reflection in the public sphere; punitive discourses around border control and immigration; and exclusionary discourses and their consequences concerning terrorists and other socially and culturally defined outsiders.Engaging with national and global issues that are more topical now than ever before, this book is essential reading for academics and students of involved in the study of the sociology of punishment, punishment and modern society, the criminal justice system, philosophy and punishment, and comparative criminology and penology.

Punishing the Other
Punishing the Other draws on the work of Zygmunt Bauman to discuss contemporary discourses and practices of punishment and criminalization. Bringing together some of the most exciting international scholars, both established and emerging, this book engages with Baumans thesis of the social production of immorality in the context of criminalization and social control, and addresses processes of othering through a range of contemporary case studies situated in various cultural, political and social contexts.
Topics covered include the increasing bureaucratization of the business of punishment with the corresponding loss of moral and ethical reflection in the public sphere; punitive discourses around border control and immigration; and exclusionary discourses and their consequences concerning terrorists and other socially and culturally defined outsiders.
Engaging with national and global issues that are more topical now than ever before, this book is essential reading for academics and students involved in the study of the sociology of punishment, punishment and modern society, the criminal justice system, philosophy and punishment, and comparative criminology and penology.
Anna Eriksson is a criminologist and penologist based at Monash University, Australia. In 2012, she received funding from the Australian Research Council for a three-year research fellowship on the topic of comparative penology, and this book is the first major publication to result from that project. She is also involved in other research projects, concerning children of prisoners, people with acquired brain injuries in the criminal justice system, preparation for release and parole, and restorative justice. Her latest book (with John Pratt), Contrasts in Punishment: An Explanation of Anglophone Excess and NordicExceptionalism, was published by Routledge in 2013. She has been a visiting academic at Kings College London, UK; rebro University, Sweden; and Oxford University, UK. Eriksson is a member of the advisory board of the Palgrave Studies in Prisons and Penology, and is the Director of the Imprisonment Observatory: http://artsonline.monash.edu.au/imprisonmentobservatory.
Provocative and most thought-provoking, with Zygmunt Bauman as their point of departure, the concepts of morality and immorality are taken to task in this string of scholarly contributions by a wide array of international scholars. A must-read for everyone interested in and concerned about immorality of our time.
Thomas Mathiesen, Professor Emeritus of Sociology of Law, University of Oslo, Norway
This important volume takes Zygmunt Baumans classic Modernity and theHolocaust as its starting point, and innovatively applies it by no means always uncritically to the study of punishment and practices of exclusion. The authors, who include both established and emerging scholars, address a range of key topics such as imprisonment, immigration detention, the social control of sex offenders, Roma and indigenous populations. Anyone interested in the sociology of contemporary social control will learn much from this fine collection of essays.
Anthony Bottoms, Emeritus Wolfson Professor of Criminology, Cambridge University, UK

Harry has published numerous articles in peer-reviewed journals and produced a steady stream of research reports from competitive grants, consultancies and commissions. His 2008 book,
