Understanding reentry experiences after incarceration Prison in the
United States often has a revolving door, with droves of formerly
incarcerated people ultimately finding themselves behind bars
again. In Beyond Recidivism, Andrea Leverentz, Elsa Y. Chen, and
Johnna Christian bring together a leading group of
interdisciplinary scholars to examine this phenomenon using several
approaches to research on recently released prisoners returning to
their lives. They focus on the social context of reentry and look
at the stories returning prisoners tell, including such key issues
as when they choose to reveal (or not) their criminal histories.
Drawing on contemporary studies, contributors examine the best
ideas that have emerged over the last decade to understanding the
challenges prisoners face upon reentering society. Together, they
present a complete picture of prisoner reentry, including
real-world recommendations for policies to ensure the well-being of
returning prisoners, regardless of their past mistakes.
