Horowitz also illustrates the failure of criminal justice responses to social problems. Sharing detailed narratives from the experiences of those on registries and their loved ones, Horowitz reveals the social impact and cycle of violence that results from dehumanizing and banishing those who have already been held accountable.From Rage to Reason offers a new perspective on how and why false claims about sex offenses became so pervasive and how these myths fostered ineffective policies that have little to do with the reality of most sexual abuse. It argues that to truly prevent sexual abuse, we must unearth the sources of these misunderstandings, debunk these claims in a systematic way, and have frank and genuine discussions about the limits of legal responses to complex social problems"-- $c Provided by publisher. 650 0 $a Sex crimes $x Law and legislation $z United States. 650 0 $a Violence (Law) $z United States. 650 0 $a Sex offenders $x Legal status, laws, etc. $z United States. 650 0 $a Discrimination in criminal justice administration $z United States. 650 0 $a Revenge $z United States. 650 0 $a Revenge $x Social aspects. 650 7 $a SOCIAL SCIENCE / Violence in Society. $2 bisacsh 650 7 $a LAW / Child Advocacy. $2 bisacsh 941 $a 2 952 $l USUX851 $d 20240502014213.0 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20231219013408.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=7D017CA89E3C11EE84E191EF36ECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
