This book traces the fascinating development of the New Zealand
Prison System which includes the history of penology prior to the
phenomenon coming there. But this book is not only a history: it is
also an exploration of more complex managerial and social issues
concerning crime and its treatment, including the interweaving of
different penal policies that have brought the situation to where
it is today. As such, it raises psychological issues of isolation
in all shades of confinement, captivity, and deprivation that will
appeal to everyone who is trying to grapple with the
administrative, clinical, and legal problems they create. The work
also traces the origins of imprisonment as a strategy used by
rulers and ruling classes to retain their power, and more recently
by duly elected governments to maintain social control and good
order in their communities.
