Crimes affect the sense of justice and social interactivity. Matthias Müller makes these impairments visible on the basis of empirical research in just-world theory and shows in his criminal-theoretical considerations what the function of retributive punishment is in the maintenance of a liberal order. The interdisciplinary approach opens up a new perspective on retributive justice.
