A powerful and radical speech of Pope Francis on justice and prisons: his disapproving analysis on penal justice, declared as selective, populist and racist. This book analyzes the speech of Pope Francis at the Association of international criminal law: it is a manifesto against the excesses of the last decades and against a criminal law that treats people as enemies. Justice, for Pope Francis, should always be “pro homine”.
