Depending on your perspective, the criminal justice systems of Western civilization are either broken or operating precisely as intended. Either way, the jury is no longer out. Our institutions must be wholly reimagined.
Depending on your perspective, the criminal justice systems of Western civilization are either broken or operating precisely as intended. Either way, the jury is no longer out. Our institutions must be wholly reimagined. The philosophical foundations of thought need to be brought into the 21st century. Building off the famous work of Cesare Beccaria, Michael Wood constructs the pathways to the enlightenment period of justice. A life course that wove from a 17-year-old US Marine to a decade on the streets of Baltimore to international police consultant to a scholar of management systems provided a unique combination of experiences for Michael Wood. It was not an easy journey to go from an instrument of violence to an instrument of peace. It will not be an easy journey for you either, but it is the one that we owe to the future. To make a safer world for our children to pursue life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.
