'Revolutionises our understanding of the carceral state' - Fidelis
Chebe, Director of Migrant Action During 2019-20 in England and
Wales, over 17 million hours of labour were carried out by more
than 12,500 people incarcerated in prisons, while many people in
immigration removal centres also worked. In many cases, such
workers constitute a sub-waged, captive workforce who are discarded
by the state when done with. Work and the Carceral State examines
these forms of work as part of a broader exploration of the
relationship between criminalisation, criminal justice, immigration
policy and labour, tracing their lineage through the histories of
transportation and banishment, of houses of correction and prisons,
to the contemporary production of work. Criminalisation has been
used to enforce work and to discipline labour throughout the
history of England and Wales. This book demands that we recognise
the carceral state as operating at the frontier of labour control
in the 21st century.
