Carceral Space, Prisoners and Animals (eBook, ePUB)

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

Carceral Spaces and Animals develops a framework for exploring embodied, geographical, legal, and ethical resonances across human and non-human carceral spaces. This book examines the close linkages that can be found across prisoner and animal carcerality and captivity, focusing on their corresponding and parallel disciplinary regimes and structures of violence. Case studies juxtapose four main types of institutions: death row and slaughterhouse; laboratory testing on incarcerated humans and animals, solitary confinement, and sites of exploited labor.
