Criminal Justice: The Limits Of Community

Reading Minister of St Mary The Virgin, Chain Street, Reading, RG1 2HX
Saturday 10 November 2018 – 10am-4pm

Criminal Justice: The Limits Of Community will be hosted in a church and looks at what extent Christian values of justice and redemption are mirrored in how society reacts to crime. Presentations and mini lectures will discuss whether society’s treatment of offenders is driven by a desire to punish and exclude, whether the death penalty really reduces crime rates and will use images and videos to bring the debate to life.
