Progressive punishment?
This year's report on The State of the States has been beefed-up. Published in a quality paperback form, in addition to the annual League Table, the report features substantive analysis of state government policies in corrective services, by Mark Findlay, education, by Tony Vinson, health, by Paul Fitzgerald & Graham Larcombe, and child protection, by Stephen Rix. Read this opinion piece based on the corrective services chapter by Mark Findlay, who argues that the present psychological prison may be counter-productive.
