What is Confronting the Death Penalty: How Language Influences Jurors in Capital Cases (Oxford Studies in Language and Law) about?
\"Confronting the Death Penalty probes how jurors make the ultimate decision about whether another human being should live or die. Drawing on ethnographic and qualitative linguistic methods, Robin Conley explores the means through which language helps to make death penalty decisions possible - how specific linguistic choices mediate and restrict jurors', attorneys', and judges' actions and experiences while serving and reflecting on capital trials.\"--Provided by publisher.
