Criminal Justice Issues (20 janv. 1977 – 20 janv. 1981)
Description:
Carter advocated for a criminal justice system focused on rehabilitation and fairness rather than solely on punishment. He believed that punishment should be proportionate to the crime, not just the criminal. As President, the federal prison population decreased by 34% during his term (1977-1981), a significant reduction compared to later administrations.This reduction aligns with his philosophy of prioritizing rehabilitation and addressing the root causes of crime
