Deep dives
The Flaws of Current Justice Systems
Treating individuals as irredeemable can severely undermine the effectiveness of the justice system. Many believe that a punitive approach fails to rehabilitate offenders, often perpetuating criminal behavior instead of addressing the underlying issues. Historical references, such as Peter Kropotkin's view of prisons as 'nurseries of crime,' highlight how the existing structures can worsen societal problems rather than improve them. A more compassionate approach to justice considers offenders as people who need guidance and support rather than mere punishment.
