Cj 210 module two assignment

Overview

In this assignment, you will explore various ideologies or purposes  of punishment and how these ideologies can affect sentencing.

Prompt

First, identify at least three key ideologies or purposes of  punishment. Select the ideologies or purposes you would like to explore a  bit more and enter one in each open text box in the “Ideology/Purpose”  column in the provided Module Two Assignment Template.

• Note: You may repeat ideologies or purposes more than once if you  would like, but you must use a different sentencing structure with which  to explore the impact.

Then, choose at least three sentencing structures to enter into each  open text box in the “Sentencing Structure” column. You may enter them  in any order you wish in order to explore the effects of the structure  on the ideology or purpose of your choice. For example, you may wish to  explore the effects of mandatory minimum sentences on retribution or  rehabilitation. Select the three pairs that interest you the most.

• Note: Use the list of sentencing structures found in the Project Guidelines and Rubric.

Finally, in 100 to 150 words for each of the three effects you will  explore, describe how each ideology or purpose and the sentencing  structure you selected in that row affects sentencing. What is the  impact of each sentencing structure when you are trying to achieve the  ideology or purpose you have identified? Consider the following in your  response:

• Does it help achieve the goals of that ideology or purpose? Does it hinder them?
• Does it create potential new pathways of punishment or, at the very least, new approaches to punishment?
• What happens to the system when you combine these different ideas?

Specifically, you must address the following rubric criteria:

• Identify key ideologies or purposes of punishment.
• Choose a sentencing structure for each ideology or purpose.
• Explore how each ideology or purpose and its corresponding sentencing structure affects sentencing.
