A socialist critique of abolitionism from inside its strongest premises:
prisons, police, and the carceral state cannot be understood apart from
value, class power, and the state=E2=80=99s repressive function. Against bo=
th
liberal backlash and moralized horizon politics, this essay asks what would
be required to make abolition more than a name for where we want to go.
