Knygos aprašymas

Hallett (criminal justice, U. of North Florida) examines the reappearance of for-profit imprisonment in the U.S., with a particular focus on the racial history of imprisonment for private profit. Following an overview of the topic, coverage includes the operation of the Convict Lease system after the Civil War; the racial dynamics of modern prison privatization from the perspective of social-disorganization theory; the political economy of for-profit prisons; the racial context of American criminal justice policy in current debates about crime, welfare, and incarceration; the micropolitics of private prisons; and the "new colonialism" in criminal justice. For academics, researchers, professionals, and general readers interested in criminology, race and ethnicity issues. Annotation ©2006 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
