Privilege or Punish: Criminal Justice and the Challenge of Family Ties
posted by Jennifer Collins
I am really happy to announce that my book with Dan Markel and Ethan Leib, Privilege or Punish: Criminal Justice and the Challenge of Family Ties, is now officially out and available at Amazon and at Oxford University Press’s website. If you are interested in obtaining a copy at a discount from the quite high cover price (the high price of law books is a topic for a blog post in itself!), check out Dan’s post on Prawfs about the book for some suggestions.
In related news, there will be a roundtable on the book at Law and Society in May featuring Melissa Murray, Alice Ristroph, Don Braman, Tommy Crocker, and Naomi Cahn. Additionally, there will be another panel at SEALS in August. Last, there will be a Feature on the book in the Yale Law Journal sometime next year, which will include a handful of essays from a number of folks, as well as a piece by us, tentatively titled, Rethinking Criminal Justice and Family Status. We will have more info on these panels and discussions in the coming weeks. There are many people who helped make this book possible, and we are profoundly grateful for their assistance and encouragement. I also want to give a shout-out to my wonderful co-authors Dan and Ethan — working with them on this project has truly been an amazing experience (indeed, the benefits of co-authoring can be the subject for yet another blog post!)
