Rounding up some recent sentencing scholarship new to SSRN
In this space, I typically only flag “brand new” scholarship when if first appears on SSRN and which has not been previously available in print or elsewhere online. But I have seen a number of notable and still timely pieces with 2019 publication dates that have just recently been posted to SSRN. Because I always benefit from additions to my summer reading list, I figured I would flag this quartet of “new to SSRN” pieces in this one post:
What Makes the Death Penalty Arbitrary? (And Does It Matter if It Is?) by Chad Flanders
The Bureaucratic Takeover of Criminal Sentencing by Maimon Schwarzschild
Categorically Redeeming Graham v Florida and Miller v Alabama: Why the Eighth Amendment Guarantees All Juvenile Defendants a Constitutional Right to a Parole Hearing by Parag Dharmavarapu
