Question

The Amish have neither the resources nor the desire to use prison as a sanction against members of their community who violate the rules. What sanction do they use instead?

Answer 1

Answer: D.Meidung, or shunning, a process whereby no one within the community will associate or even talk with a rule breaker for a set period of time, is used.

Step-by-step explanation:

Amongst the Amish, the practice of SHUNNING is a long standing complicated practice of punishment meted out to someone who breaks community rules and/or values.

As the term implies, church members isolate, ignore or punish in some way else along those lines within a set period which sometimes can be the offender's entire life.
