Book SynopsisPrison is unquestionably one of the most sex-segregated of all social institutions. From the first incarnations of the carceral project more than two centuries ago, reformers and penologists earnestly turned their attention to the construction of ''Christian gentlemen'' and ''respectable ladies''. Vestiges of these projects remain to the present day, though often in radically different forms. Academic work exploring the construction of prison related gender has been a relatively recent development within the last quarter century. Included in this volume are twenty-two key articles exploring prison history, the state and gendered social control, gender and work in prisons and the gendered experience of incarceration. The introductory essay places these areas in the context both of more conventional sociologies of gender (highlighting both masculinities and femininities) and traditional scholarship on the prison, arguing for a return of this increasingly important social institution froTable of ContentsContents: Series preface; Introduction.

University Press of America Illegal Enterprise
Book SynopsisRepresenting over four decades of work, this monograph by historian Mark H. Haller includes his work on organized crime in Chicago. This book incorporates Haller’s critique of the Mafia model of organized crime and his elaboration of the illegal enterprise model of gangsters and their role in the American subeconomy.Trade ReviewThis book is well suited for undergraduate classes within criminology or criminal justice programs that focus on policy. The language in the book is written in a manner that citizens outside of criminology will benefit as well. . . .For those in the criminology field, most well-trained criminologists will be familiar with several of the examples of well-documented programs and studies provided in the book, such as problem-oriented policing and drug treatment courts. . . .Mathew Yeager has given us a worthy compendium of Haller's major work and contributions on the subject of how organized crime is actually organized, including some of Haller's publications which are now difficult to find. * Criminal Law and Criminal Justice Books *It is organized to showcase three of Haller’s unique contributions to the field: rediscovery and highlighting of the circumstances and content of John Landesco’s 1929 study of organized crime in Chicago; a description and commentary on the activities of the Angelo Bruno family in Philadelphia; and an analysis...of Illegal Enterprise accompanied by studies of three particular businesses, gambling, loan sharking and bootlegging. They are tied together through Haller’s self-perception "as a social scientist, using the tools of a trained historian".... [I]f I were designing an introductory course in Organized Crime, Illegal Enterprise would be one of the books on my recommended reading list. * Trends In Organized Crime *Table of ContentsPart I: Chicago Chapter 1: Illinois Association for Criminal Justice Chapter 2: John Landesco and the Illinois Crime Survey (1929) Chapter 3: Organized Crime in Urban Society: Chicago in the Twentieth Century (1971) Chapter 4: Biographical Sketches: Al Capone, Jack Guzik, Arnold Rothstein, Meyer Lansky and Max Hoff; Definition of Organized Crime Part II : Philadelphia Chapter 5: Philadelphia Bootlegging and the Report of the Special August Grand Jury (1985) Chapter 6: The Bruno Family of Philadelphia: Organized Crime as a Regulatory Agency (1994) Chapter 7: Loansharking in Philadelphia: Social Control in an Illegal Enterprise (1992) Part III - Illegal Enterprise Theory Chapter 8: The Changing Structure of American Gambling in the Twentieth Century (1979) Chapter 9: Loansharking in American Cities: Historical Analysis of a Marginal Enterprise (1977) Chapter 10: Bootleggers as Businessmen: From City Slums to City Builders (1985) Chapter 11: Illegal Enterprise: A Theoretical and Historical Interpretation (1990) Subject Index
