520 1 $a"In Death by Design, research psychologist Craig Haney argues that capital punishment, particularly the sequence of events that leads to death sentencing itself, is maintained through a complex and elaborate social psychological system that distances and disengages us from the true nature of the task. Relying heavily on his own research and that of other social scientists, Haney suggests that these social psychological forces enable persons to engage in behavior from which they would otherwise refrain. However, by facilitating death sentencing in these ways, this interrelated set of forces also undermines the reliability and authenticity of the process, and compromises the fairness of its outcomes. Because these social psychological forces are systemic in nature - built into the very system of death sentencing itself - Haney concludes by suggesting a number of interlocking reforms, derived directly from empirical research on capital punishment, that are needed to increase the fairness and reliability of the process."--BOOK JACKET.
