Dear comrades,
School has me reading criminal law and included economist aspect: Marxist theory on punishment. Anyway they keep quoting this Otto kirchheimer as a marxist writer, but it seems that guy worked for the predecessor of the CIA.... So obviously I'm very skeptical about it.
Anyone of you have any good sources on Marxist take on criminal law/punishment
