Book excerpt: Sentencing guidelines & intermediate sanctions are two of the most significant criminal justice policy developments in recent decades.

This report describes separately the past 20 years of the respective policy & research developments of sentencing guidelines & intermediate sanctions; & the modest efforts, to date, to combine the two. Includes suggestions of next steps that policymakers might consider. Tables & figures.
