Title: Explain the differences between reintegrative and stigmatizing shaming.

Stigmatization is an ongoing process of degradation in which the offender is branded as an evil person and cast out of society. Stigma is not effective as a specific deterrent because people who suffer humiliation at the hands of the justice system reject their rejecters by joining a deviant subculture of similar people who collectively resist social control. In reintegrative shaming, however, the offender is shamed and then allowed back into society. This type of shaming can be effective in allowing people to acknowledge their wrongdoings and shame themselves.
