The Political Economy of Plea Bargaining provides the political, economic, and cultural context for understanding the evolution of plea bargaining as a juridical technology implemented to ensure the efficient administration of violations of criminal law.



The Political Economy of Plea Bargaining provides the political, economic, and cultural context for understanding the evolution of plea bargaining as a juridical technology implemented to ensure the efficient administration of violations of criminal law.

Across two parts, this book contends that the confluence of political, economic, and cultural factors necessary to enhance the legal preservation of the slave system and white supremacy spatiotemporally coincided with burgeoning Northern industrial capitalism and the liberty of contract doctrine, and that each was contextualized within hegemonic liberal republican ideology out of which grew  the implementation of an efficient technology of juridical control achieving normative legal status – plea bargaining. It argues that, as with their predecessors, contemporary actors operating within the criminal legal system and who are responsible for administering plea bargaining are perpetuating a system reproducing a steering mechanism that historically constitutes a through line from Reconstruction to the present day. Following Von Mises, these actors serve as useful innocents, modern-day confused and misguided sympathizers. They are juridical actors who inherited and are perpetuating a system of conflict resolution that serves to maintain a form of social control uniquely situated to historically relevant political, economic, and cultural power in the United States.

The Political Economy of Plea Bargaining will be important reading for legal and social science academics researching and practicing within the field of criminal law and procedure. It will also act as a valuable guide to the debates surrounding plea bargaining for students with a keen interest in criminal law.

Recenzijas

"The Political Economy of Plea Bargaining offers a wide-ranging exploration of the history and development of the dominant dispute-resolution mechanism in US criminal law. Drawing on an eclectic mix of history, social and critical theory, political philosophy, constitutional jurisprudence, and personal reflection, the author powerfully demonstrates how procedural efficiency and an anti-democratic impulse to maintain social control over marginal populations have displaced the long-standing American commitment to trial by jury. This timely work brings a unique critical-theoretic lens to the current debate and should prompt new misgivings about the plea-bargaining paradigm."

Russell D. Covey, Law Professor and Co-Chair of the ABA Plea Bargaining Task Force

"This fresh, insightful, and wide-ranging work exploresand explodes--a leading cause of contemporary injusticeplea bargaining. Drawing on various disciplines and legal doctrine, Professor Schehr powerfully deconstructs the flawed rationales for extinguishing the fundamental right to jury trial, and catalogues the resulting catastrophic damage to US law and society."

Jack Chin, Professor of Law, and Director of Clinical Legal Education, UC Davis School of Law

"This captivating exploration delves into the origins and evolution of plea bargaining as a legal instrument of social control in capitalist America. Drawing on interdisciplinary scholarship from Law, Political Economy, and Sociology, this must-read book offers a unique perspective on the anti-democratic nature of plea bargaining, its role within capitalist systems, and the injustices it perpetuates."
