  Is there something distinctive about penology in Europe? Do Europeans think about punishment and penal policy in a different way to people in other parts of the globe? If so, why is this the case and how does it work in practice? This book addresses the issues that have been emerging recently in the interdisciplinary field of 'European penology'.
