Through out the past quarter century, there has been an increased
focus on corrections both as a means of social control (i.e.
reducing crime) and generating income (i.e. profiteering from
punishment); and with this in mind "From Bars to Windows," attempts
to examine how and explain why we can change the orientation of
national correctional policy to more equitably spread the wealth
generated by our nations prison system. Unlike the traditional
staple of prison writing comprised of psuedo redemptive
autobiography's, violence, sexual brutality, and the like-"From
Bars to Windows," concentrates more on the fundamental economics'
of our prison system. Indeed this book is a virtual how to manual
that explains the in's and outs of ethically and morally
profiteering from our prison system.The book lays out exactly how
investors can reap tremendous profits by taking advantage of the
readily available for-profit prison industrial infrastructure that
exists within our country. Market conditions are such that now the
Green Energy sector is poised for virtually unparalleled growth. On
the other side of the equation, there's a burgeoning prison
manufacturing sector. For instance there were over 100 Federal
prison based factories, which employed more than 21,000 inmates and
generated over $546.3 million in net sales in 2003 alone.. As multi
nationals realize that continued outsourcing of manufacturing jobs
is no longer a viable or sustainable strategy, there's going to be
an inexorable nexus between manufacturing on the one hand, and
rehabilitative Prison industries on the other-with billions in
potential profits at stake. Some of the highlights of the book
include: u defines and explains, Gatsian economic theoryu explains
how prisons and profiteering are inextricably linked u provides an
examination of how the inherent economic potential of the prison
black market can be harnessed to yield net economic gains for
society
