Allen and Jerome M. Clubb examine historical trends in the use of capital punishment in the United States. Employing empirical data, the authors explore how frequently the death penalty has been used and how its frequency of use has changed, where the death penalty was used most often, the offenses charged, and the characteristics of the executed. Not surprisingly, their findings indicate that minority groups - particularly African Americans and those of lower social and economic status in general - have been executed in disproportionate numbers."--BOOK JACKET. 000350585 650_0 $$aCapital punishment$$zUnited States$$xHistory. 000350585 650_0 $$aDiscrimination in capital punishment$$zUnited States$$xHistory. 000350585 650_0 $$aDiscrimination in criminal justice administration$$zUnited States$$xHistory. 000350585 7001_ $$aClubb, Jerome M.,$$d1928- 000350585 7001_ $$aLacey, Vincent A. 000350585 85200 $$bgen$$hHV8699.U5$$iA725$$i2008 000350585 85641 $$3Table of contents$$uhttp://catdir.loc.gov/catdir/toc/fy0804/2007033225.html 000350585 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:350585$$pGLOBAL_SET 000350585 980__ $$aBIB 000350585 980__ $$aBOOK
