The Economist is a world-renowned weekly publication, and within the past two weeks it has discussed the imprisonment and probational monitoring of sex offenders in America (that’s the leader article from the print edition’s America section, although this was not the cover story). This met with a very strong reaction online, but you will have to hit the website to see all the comments.
The author of one of the main piece attracted further comments in the blog section. At the moment it’s free to view but since we don’t know how far back the archive goes, we recommend you read all three sections as soon as possible. Further comments in a general blogged reaction piece seem to have been removed.
