Resist Not Evil

Clarence Darrow is best known for defending the right to teach evolution in "The Scopes trial." Not so well known is his lifetime of service on behalf of victims of government persecution. In Resist Not Evil, Darrow presents a convincing case for abolishing the criminal justice system. Darrow argues that neither punishment nor prison reduces the crime rate, & the only reason for them is vengeance & cruelty. He points out that most crimes are committed against property by people who have been shut out of the economic system. This reprint of Darrow's controversial essay could not be more timely; his ideas have lost none of their fire or relevance.Darrow, Clarence S. is the author of 'Resist Not Evil' with ISBN 9780891980650 and ISBN 0891980652.
