Title: A Defense of Punishment
Authors: Brailas, Matthew
Advisors: McGrath, Sarah
Department: Philosophy
Class Year: 2014
Abstract: In my thesis I define punishment as primarily a communicative and expressive act, by which society communicates its condemnation to the criminal, and expresses its value system in law. I also defend the usefulness of punishment as a communicative vehicle for those messages.
