INMATE MENTAL HEALTH, SOLITARY CONFINEMENT, AND CRUEL AND UNUSUAL PUNISHMENT: A PRELIMINARY RESPONSE TO COMMENTATORS.
- Authors
BERSOT, HEATHER Y.; ARRIGO, BRUCE A.
- Abstract
In this article, the authors present their response on the various perspectives of the commentators on their article which deals with prisoners. They mention that some commentators were able to examine important values such as empathy and dignity. The authors also note the two pivotal themes emerged among the various comments which involve the reservations about the adequacy of virtue ethics and the degree of doubt among few authors concerning virtue-guided decision-making logic and practice.
