STORIES THAT KILL: MASCULINITY AND CAPITAL PROSECUTORS' CLOSING ARGUMENTS |
71 Cleveland State Law Review 1147 (2023) |
The American death penalty is a punishment by, for, and about men: Both historically and today, most capital prosecutors are men, most capital defendants are men, and killing itself is strongly coded male. Yet despite--or perhaps because of--the overwhelming maleness of the institution of capital punishment, the subject of masculinity is largely... |
