Witness in the Era of Mass Incarceration

Discovering the Ethical Prison

• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

This book places prison witness at the center of discussions of the human experience of law and order, and of the nature of the rights-bearing person. Readings of canonical and contemporary writers facing incarceration yield abiding literary tropes that chart the path from institutional abjection toward the minimal threshold of personhood.
