The Cost of Custodial Penalties

Produktbeschreibung

This book examines what it means to be a family within the restrictive and distressing context of imprisonment. It sheds new light on the barriers to family life experienced by prisoners, and on our understanding of wider issues such as poverty and social marginalisation, the role of family relationships on desistance from crime, and legitimacy.
