New Criminal Law Review Symposium on Privilege or Punish: Criminal Justice and the Challenge of Family Ties

This symposium includes three review essays by Professors Doug Berman, Naomi Cahn, and Jack Chin. The review essays are focused on a recent book by Professors Dan Markel, Jennifer M. Collins and Ethan J. Leib entitled 'Privilege or Punish: Criminal Justice and the Challenge of Family Ties' (Oxford 2009). You can download the entire book for free at http://ssrn.com/abstract=1677503.

In addition to the three review essays, the collection includes an essay by the book's authors that serves as a reply to this set of critiques. Collectively, we are grateful to the New Criminal Law Review, which is hosting this collection in an upcoming issue.

The essays are titled, respectively:

Berman: Digging Deeper into, and Thinking Better about, the Interplay of Families and Criminal Justice

Cahn: Protect and Preserve?

Chin: Mandatory, Contingent, and Discretionary Policy Arguments

Collins, Leib & Markel: (When) Should Family Status Matter in the Criminal Justice System?
