The cosmological fallacy: time is a thing with quantity --

520 "Exactly how is it we think the ends of justice are
accomplished by means of sentencing a convict to a term in
prison? How do we relate a quantitative measure of time--
months and years--to the objectives of deterring crime,
punishing wrongdoers, and accomplishing a quality of
justice for those touched by a criminal act? Linda Meyer
investigates these questions, examining the disconnect
between our two basic modes of thinking about time--
chronologically (seconds, minutes, hours), or
phenomenologically (observing, taking note of, or being
aware of the passing of time). Meyer asks whether--in
overlooking the irreconcilability of these two modes of
thinking about time--we are failing to accomplish anything
near to the ends we believe the criminal justice system is
designed to serve. Drawing on work in philosophy, legal
theory, jurisprudence, and the history of penology, Meyer
explores how, rather than condemning prisoners to an
experience of time bereft of meaning, we might instead
make the experience of incarceration constructively
meaningful--and thus better aligned with social objectives
of deterring crime, reforming offenders, and restoring
justice."--Publisher.
