Deterring Criminals: Policy Making and the American Political Tra-










dition, by Jeffrey Leigh Sedgwick, seeks to determine whether cost-










benefit analysis or welfare economics can produce effective and










constitutional solutions to the problem of crime. Despite the growing










support for economic models of deterrence and criminal motivation,









the use of welfare economics in formulating crime poicy is not free of










problems. Professor Sedgwick finds that, although such models prob-










ably should replace older causal theories of criminal motivation, their










use may lead the poiicy maker to depend too much on public pref-










erences in formulating law-enforcement goals. To the extent that










wefare economics relies wholly on consumer sovereignty to identify









desirable policies, the author argues, that paradigm may be incompati-









bie with Anerican political traditions and respect for human rights.











     jeffrey Leigh Sedgwick is assistant professor of political science










at the Univer:ity of Massachusetts. He holds an A.B. from Kenyon










College and an MA P.A. and Ph.D. from the University of Virginia.
