This title presents a fully developed punishment theory which incorporates both utilitarian and retributive sentencing purposes. The author describes and defends a hybrid sentencing model that integrates theory and practice - blending and balancing both the competing principles of retribution and rehabilitation and the procedural concern of weighing rules against discretion.

'Paying for the Past' examines the neglected but critically important topic of sentence enhancements based on prior convictions in the United States. Most sentenced offenders have a prior record, and in many cases that record carries more weight at sentencing than the new crime being punished. Drawing on empirical data and rules from a number of jurisdictions, Richard S. Frase and Julian V. Roberts assess the use of prior record enhancements, their justification, and how they contribute to racial disparities and mass incarceration.
