Taylor & Francis Ltd Questioning Punishment
Book SynopsisThis book questions punishment as concept, social phenomenon and contemporary practice. It unpacks punishment's nature and the assumptions that underpin it, examines its targets, objectives and implications, locates punishment and punitivity within their social contexts, and aims to unsettle the idea that there is something common-sensical, necessary and unavoidable about punitive justice.Questioning Punishment develops its argument through an innovative structure organised around five central questions: what punishment is; who punishment's targets and subjects are; how punishment is perpetuated and experienced; when and where punishment unfolds and why we punish. It ends by considering the implications of this enquiry to understandings of punishment and broader pursuits of justice.This book is essential reading for all those engaged with the sociology of punishment and prisons, Trade Review"The product of years of collaborative endeavour, this engaging, provocative book examines multiple facets of punishment to expose how deeply problematic it is. Revealing our pathological dependence on punishment, it invites us to explore potential new conceptualisations of justice. Essential reading for all students and scholars of punishment."Lucia Zedner, Senior Research Fellow in Law, All Souls College & Professor, Faculty of Law, University of Oxford"This is an important, scholarly and thought-provoking book. It examines and challenges the way in which punishment has become such a central feature of everyday life in modern society. Rather than seeking justice through punishment, it makes the case for a just society that would have no need for punitive justice."John Pratt, Emeritus Professor of Criminology, Institute of Criminology, Victoria University of Wellington, New Zealand"This important book offers a clear and comprehensive analysis of the ‘who, what, when, where, how and why’ of modern punishment. Questioning taken-for-granted assumptions, and unpacking the persistent allure of punishment, the book untangles the many threads of punitiveness that run through prevalent notions of justice. A vital resource for anyone seeking to understand and rethink the role of punishment in contemporary societies."Sarah Lamble, Reader in Criminology and Queer Theory, Department of Criminology, Birkbeck, University of London ‘The world of punishment has become inundated with easy answers (“what works!”) and starved of hard questions. Thankfully, in this invaluable new work, Carvalho and Chamberlen ask all the right questions of a complex institution in desperate need of this sort of sophisticated interrogation.’Shadd Maruna, Professor of Criminology, Queen's University Belfast'As many countries are going through their most punitive moment in peace time, questioning why, whom and how we punish cannot be more timely, echoing social movements and political reforms with similar interrogations. Through a rigorous and accessible analysis, Henrique Carvalho and Anastasia Chamberlen offer a much-needed reflection for citizens and, hopefully, politicians.'Didier Fassin, Professor at the Collège de France and author of The Will to PunishTable of ContentsIntroduction 1.What Is Punishment? 2.Who Are the Targets and the Subjects of Punishment? 3.How Do We Punish and How Does It Feel? 4.When and Where Does Punishment Unfold? 5.Why Do We Punish? 6.So What?

Taylor & Francis Ltd Motherhood after Incarceration
Book SynopsisMotherhood after Incarceration: Community Reintegration for Mothers in the Criminal Legal System explores the relationships of women with their children immediately after periods of incarceration. The analysis draws on in-depth interviews with 39 women who are mothers and who had recently been released in the Portland, Oregon, metropolitan area. Using data collected from these interviews, the authors address three interrelated questions: (1) How does incarceration affect mother/child bonds? (2) What obstacles interfere with successful reintegration of these mothers into the community? (3) Do mothers who regain immediate custody of their children after incarceration reintegrate better than those with delayed (or no) resumption of child custody? Implications of these findings for policy are explored.The research results demonstrate the struggles justice-involved mothers experience over time as they seek to reintegrate into the community and resolve their relationTable of ContentsChapter 1.

Taylor & Francis Ltd Reimagining Probation Practice
Book SynopsisThis book provides a comprehensive and positive reimagining of probation practice in England and Wales across all the key settings in which work with people subject to supervision takes place. Bringing together chapters co-authored by academics and practitioners, it offers an overall conceptualisation of the rehabilitative endeavour within the realities of a probation service recently unified after the acknowledged failure of the Transforming Rehabilitation reforms. Reimagining Probation Practice covers the main themes and job functions of probation practice, from court work to individual and group interventions, to resettlement and public protection, to partnerships, to education and training. Each chapter includes a brief critical history of the area of practice, the current policy context, the applicability of different forms of rehabilitation (personal, legal/judicial, social and moral) to this area of practice, an overview of current good practice anTrade ReviewAs countries world-wide focus on ways to reform various aspects their criminal justice systems, most are focusing on tweaking existing systems rather than considering what can and should occur. Reimaging Probation offers such an approach to English and Welsh Probation Services. By combining academic and practitioner perspectives, each chapter offers a critique of current approaches with recommendations for rethinking probation services that focus on the individuals rather than impersonal risk assessments.Rita Shah, Associate Professor of Criminology, Eastern Michigan UniversityA book constructed by such an impressive line-up of editors raises expectations of originality, critical analysis, realistic idealism and progressive thinking, and it will not disappoint. The editors, by bringing together practitioners and academics to prepare the ground for a renewal of probation as an instrument for rehabilitative endeavour in its reimagined forms, have produced what is likely to become a landmark publication in its field.Maurice Vanstone, Emeritus Professor of Criminology and Criminal Justice, Swansea UniversityThe changes involved in the emerging new structure for probation in Britain represent a unique watershed moment to reimagine and refocus probation practice there. The authors of this book, which could not be more timely, have seen and seized that moment and produced an optimistic vision through which to explore the emerging ‘windows of opportunity,’ not only to reimagine but to help reshape, renew and rebuild probation practice for the better. This exciting vision is created and developed through building on previous studies and pairing academic researchers with practitioners, in a uniquely helpful thematic approach and structure, all of which combine to realise what is a huge gift to the probation community in the widest sense. Vivian Geiran, Adjunct Assistant Professor, School of Social Work & Social Policy, Trinity College Dublin and former Director, Irish Probation ServiceAs probation emerges from the ravages of Transforming Rehabilitation, this book arrives, instilling hope for its future and the possibilities for practice. But it is also heartening that it is so grounded in reality with each chapter co-produced by a creative pairing of practitioner and academic. Without question, Re-imagining Probation Practice will become essential reading for new and long-established probation officers – and for all, like me, involved in training.Anne Robinson, Head of Community Justice Learning, Sheffield Hallam UniversityTable of Contents1.Introduction: Reforming, reimagining and moving forward – for what purpose?

Taylor & Francis Prison Violence
Book SynopsisPrisons are dangerous places, and assaults, threats, theft and verbal abuse are pervasive - attributable both to the characteristics of the captive population and to an institutional sub culture which promotes violence as a means of resolving conflicts. Yet the crimes perpetrated by prisoners on other prisoners have attracted little interest, and criminological research has contributed little to an understanding of situations in which violence arises in penal institutions. This book seeks to remedy this, and to address and answer a number of key questions: how do features of the prison social setting shape conflicts?; what social norms guide the decision to use violence?; what are the personal and social consequences of spending months or years in places where distrust and anxiety are normal?; how do staff respond to the dangers that are part of daily life in many prisons?; is it possible to identify factors associated with risk and resilience?; and what methods of handling conflictTable of ContentsChapter 1 Introduction and overview; Chapter 2 Methods and key concepts; Chapter 3 The extent and nature of victimization; Chapter 4 Reciprocal victimization and bullying; Chapter 5 Fear and vulnerability; Chapter 6 Conflicts I — interests, relationships, catalysts; Chapter 7 Conflicts II — interpretations, purposes, social context; Chapter 8 Power contests; Chapter 9 Pathways to safety;

Taylor & Francis Handbook on Prisons
Book SynopsisThe second edition of the Handbook on Prisons builds on the critical and commercial success of the first edition and includes new chapters, new sections and new authors to give it a fresh and significantly different feel to its predecessor.Trade Review"A significantly expanded range of issues and international sweep. Cutting edge stuff - original and challenging essays reaching way beyond the useful overview of the field that the title Handbook conjures up."David Brown, Emeritus Professor, Law Faculty, University of NSW, Sydney, Australia"An impressive collection of essays addressing some of the key issues in prison research and practice which are currently engaging policy makers, academics and practitioners alike. This is a considerable achievement for the editors - Yvonne Jewkes, Jamie Bennett and Ben Crewe, who have brought together leading authorities in the field to write about these issues in a fresh and engaging way . If you only buy one textbook on prisons this year, make sure that it is this one."Dr Sharon Shalev, Centre for Criminology, University of Oxford, UK. Author of Supermax: Controlling Risk Through Solitary Confinement (Willan, 2009)"The arrival of this second edition of the Handbook on Prisons could not be more timely. Mass incarceration, perhaps the most significant social fact of our time, is both expanding and transforming on a global basis. The new volume brings the world's leading experts on penology and punishment and society together and forges a comprehensive platform of historical, theoretical, and problem centered frameworks to analyze the present conjuncture."Jonathan S.
