Crime and No Punishment

In Crime and No Punishment, Marie Gottschalk explores the deepening violence and systemic injustices in the United States, from unchecked corporate crime to expanded incarceration and militarized policing. She highlights how the concentration of power and resources has eroded the legitimacy of American institutions, with economic and state violence causing widespread harm. The book emphasizes the disparity between the focus on street crime and the broader, more damaging issues of corporate and political misconduct.
