Experiencing Imprisonment: Research on the experience of living and working in carceral institutions de Carla Reeves

Experiencing Imprisonment: Research on the experience of living and working in carceral institutions: Routledge Frontiers of Criminal Justice

Editat de Carla Reeves
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 28 oct 2015
The growing body of work on imprisonment, desistance and rehabilitation has mainly focused on policies and treatment programmes and how they are delivered. Experiencing Imprisonment reflects recent developments in research that focus on the active role of the offender in the process of justice. Bringing together experts from around the world and presenting a range of comparative critical research relating to key themes of the pains of imprisonment, stigma, power and vulnerability, this book explores the various ways in which offenders relate to the justice systems and how these relationships impact the nature and effectiveness of their efforts to reduce offending.
Experiencing Imprisonment showcases cutting-edge international and comparative critical research on how imprisonment is experienced by those people living and working within imprisonment institutions in North America and Northern, Central and Eastern Europe, as well as Scandinavia. The research explores the subjective experience of imprisonment from the perspective of a variety of staff and prisoner groups, including juveniles, adult female and male prisoners, older prisoners, sex offenders, wrongfully convicted offenders and newly released prisoners.
Offering a unique view of what it is like to be a prisoner or a prison officer, the chapters in this book argue for a prioritisation of understanding the subjective experiences of imprisonment as essential to developing effective and humane systems of punishment. This is essential reading for academics and students involved in the study of criminology, penology and the sociology of imprisonment. It will also be of interest to Criminal Justice practitioners and policymakers around the globe.

Notă biografică

Carla Reeves is Subject Leader in Criminology at the University of Huddersfield, UK. Prior to joining the University in 2007 Dr Reeves was a Research Officer at Bangor University, during which time she also worked in a Probation Approved Premises (semi-secure hostel accommodation for high risk offenders being released from prison). Her research interests centre around sex offender management and networks (both formal and informal, virtual and real world) with a particular focus on offenders’ subjective personal and social experiences of such interactions within, and because of, criminal justice institutions. Alongside this is an allied interest in reintegration and resettlement and offenders’ active engagement with these processes.

Recenzii

‘As punitiveness and the growth of imprisonment become　increasingly accepted around the world,　Carla Reeves's book is particularly salient in　refocusing on the lived　experience of imprisonment　revealing the　profound human consequences. By drawing upon a range of international ethnographic and qualitative research, this book offers a sense of what it feels like to be in prison, the nature of the everyday　social dynamics, and illuminates its　entanglement with　wider issues of globalisation, power and inequality. These are subjects that　are essential for academics, students and practitioners’.

Jamie Bennett, Governor, HMP Grendon & Springhill, UK
'Only a few years ago, senior scholars were bemoaning the death of prison ethnography and the absence of insight into daily life within custodial institutions. This volume not only proves that high quality research on the nature of confinement is thriving. By detailing the experiences of groups including sex offenders, the wrongly convicted and female prisoners, and by covering contexts including approved premises, young offender institutions and prisons from a range of jurisdictions, it also demonstrates that the scope of prison research has broadened considerably. This collection brings together a very impressive range of scholars and studies and represents an exceptionally strong and timely adornment to the literature on prisons and imprisonment’.
Ben Crewe, Deputy Director of the Prisons Research Centre and Director of the M.St. Penology Programme at University of Cambridge, UK.


'After decades of largely ignoring mass incarceration, academic penology is undergoing something of a renaissance in recent years. This genuinely international collection of studies conducted by some of the most exciting new researchers in this new movement strikes at the heart of the matter by asking the crucial questions: "What is incarceration and what does it do?" It should be required reading'.
Shadd Maruna, Dean, Rutgers School of Criminal Justice
