摘要:This comment focuses on Harel’s argument of principle against the privatization of the state’s institutions of criminal punishment and of war-making. After summarizing what I take to be the core of that argument, I consider two objections as a way of suggesting that there is something missing in the way he makes the case against privatization. I then propose a different and more compelling sort of argument against the privatization of criminal punishment, based on a republican theory of government that Harel embraces elsewhere in the book.
