The Legal Theory Bookworm recommends The Palgrave Handbook of Applied Ethics and the Criminal Law, edited by Larry Alexander & Kimberly Kessler Ferzan. Here is a description:
This handbook consists of essays on contemporary issues in criminal law and their theoretical underpinnings. Some of the essays deal with the relationship between morality and criminalization. Others deal with criminalization in the context of specific crimes such as fraud, blackmail, and revenge pornography. The contributors also address questions of responsible agency such as the effects of addiction or insanity, and some deal with punishment, its mode and severity, and the justness of the state’s imposition of it. These chapters are authored by some of the most distinguished scholars in the fields of applied ethics, criminal law, and jurisprudence.
And from the reviews:
“This volume contains a Who’s Who of criminal law philosophers, as well as a What’s What of important issues. Nearly every important scholar across several generations has here tackled an issue on which they have done some serious thinking. The future of philosophy’s contributions to criminal law is questioned in some quarters but it is hard to turn away from this volume without being deeply impressed with the continuing importance of the discipline.” (Paul H. Robinson, Colin S. Diver Professor of Law, University of Pennsylvania, author of Intuitions of Justice and the Utility of Desert.)
“The last two decades have seen a flourishing of scholarship that connects philosophical ethics and criminal law―that applies ethics to work out what kind of criminal law we should have, and uses issues in criminal law to throw light on ethical questions. This splendid volume collects thirty-two new papers by some of the most interesting contributors (both established and young) to this flourishing: it helps to define, and advance, this important field of scholarship.”(R.A. Duff, Professor Emeritus in Philosophy, University of Stirling, Scotland, UK)
