The Science of Second Chances ft. Jennifer Doleac

Over the last decade, conversations about criminal justice have become more and more prominent in our national politics. But how can we tell what works and what doesn't? Jennifer Doleac joins the podcast to discuss her new book, The Science of Second Chances. We talk about the best evidence for how to reduce harms from the criminal justice system, to reduce crime levels in our communities, and why some activists are so allergic to neutrally examining the evidence.
