    Katherine Beckett’s book Making Crime Pay challenges the dominant view that the increase in incarceration, particularly of young Black men, seen throughout the last 30 plus years has been due to a response to public concern about crime, changing demographics, and an increase in violent crime that needed to be fixed. Instead, Beckett forces us to examine the discursive and political nature of the decisions that led to tough on crime policies and in effect mass incarceration. As she summarizes, “The notion that the desire for punishment is ubiquitous and unequivocal ignores the complexity of cultural attitudes and the situation and political factors that shape their expression.” Beckett examines the important role that race played in this process, particularly in the discourse surrounding law and order.…
