Drawing on a range of research and media sources to provide an
international perspective on the topic of prison violence, this
book focuses on the impact of such violence on the individual both
while he or she is incarcerated and upon his or her release from
prison, as well as on society as a whole. With a special emphasis
on comparisons of violence among incarcerated populations in the
United States, Canada and the United Kingdom, Prison Violence:
Causes, Consequences and Solutions explores the various systems
that exist to combat the problem, whilst also considering public
perceptions of offenders and punishment, as influenced by media and
coverage of high-profile cases. Providing a comprehensive analysis
of prison violence on national and international levels, this book
examines the extent of the problem, theoretical understandings of
the issue and concrete solutions designed to prevent and handle
such violence. As such, it will be of interest to policy makers as
well as scholars of sociology, criminology and penology.
