Reforming Criminal Justice

Christian Living

“Everywhere, criminal justice reform continues unabated, higgledy-piggledy. Usually animated by a cliche (‘defund the police’), it is unintelligible. What is required is a return to first principles. That is Martens’s project—from a Christian perspective. Mercifully, he does it in a single volume written in a way that is not sectarian but more general; its appeal, in fact, should be universal.”
