Beschreibung

Today, pardons seem to be astonishingly broad and everywhere, with candidates promising pardons and presidents eagerly passing out get-out-of-jail free cards to allies and relatives. Saikrishna Prakash explores the transformation of the pardon-once mostly a rare feat of principled deliberation, now a routine matter of pure political expediency.
