  • In Chapter 5 of the text, the author discusses
    four alternatives to retributive justice
    corrective justice, reformative justice,
    restorative justice, and transformative justice
    (see Section 5.3).
  • In Case Study 5.5 Dead Woman Walking, the
    text describes the circumstances that led to the
    1998 execution in Texas of Karla Faye Tucker.
    Before she was executed she requested, but was
    denied, clemency. Her cause was supported by many
    political, correctional, and moral leaders.
  • Would the application of any of the four
    alternatives to retribution have produced a more
    just outcome? Your initial post must explain and
    apply each of the four alternative theories of
    justice to Karla Faye Tuckers case. Also,
    critically evaluate each of the alternatives in
    the circumstances of her case. Why does each
    theory produce a more or less just outcome than
    the approach actually followed by the State of
    Texas? Finally, is the utility of each
    alternative limited to the unusual circumstances
    of Karlas case or do they have value more
    generally to merit consideration as a more just
    approach than retributive justice?
