This volume on penitentiary systems in the Americas offers a
long-overdue look at the prisons that exist at the forefront of the
ongoing struggle against drugs and violence throughout North,
Central, and South America and the Caribbean. From Haiti to
Bolivia, the authors examine the conditions in these systems, and
allow several common themes to emerge, including the alarming
prevalence of lengthy pre-trial detention and the often abysmal
living conditions in these institutions. Taken together, this
comprises the first comparative overview of the use and abuse of
prisons in the Americas.
