Joseph Kijem

A Systemic Imprisonment of Cameroon¿s Prison System

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

The prison system in Cameroon is a mess in various domains (social, economic, psychological, financial, material, spiritual, etc). It is a reflection or an embodiment of a poorly managed country, a country which is wallowing in the predicaments of colonialism and neo-colonialism. This book is an attempt to present some of the glaring aspects of these predicaments. This presentation shall be done in the following points or sections: interaction among inmates; interaction between inmates and visitors; interaction between prison staff and inmates; interaction between prison staff and visitors; health issues; income-generating activities; spiritual matters; educational issues; cultural dimension; sexual matters; sports in prisons; young people in prisons; female inmates; elderly inmates; the situation of inmates living with disabilities; persons awaiting trial in prison cells; recruitment of penitentiary staff; training of penitentiary staff; the working environment and retirement issues. These points or sections take us, in just a very brief presentation, to the world of tribulations in Cameroon's prison system, a system which is undergoing a journey down the drain in many respects.
