Privatizing Prisons - Rhetoric and Reality (Hardcover): Adrian L. James, Keith Bottomley, Alison Liebling, Emma Clare Privatizing Prisons - Rhetoric and Reality (Hardcover)
Adrian L. James, Keith Bottomley, Alison Liebling, Emma Clare
R5,126 Discovery Miles 51 260 Ships in 10 - 15 working days

This book makes public, for the first time, a full account of the development of the privatization of prisons, centred on the only full-scale empirical study yet to have been undertaken in Britain. After providing an up-to-date overview of the development of private sector involvement in penal practice in the United Kingdom, North America, Europe and Australia, the authors go on to describe the first two years in the life of Wolds Remand Prison - the first private prison in Britain. They look at the daily life for remand prisoners, assess the duties and morale of staff and compare the workings of Wolds to a new local prison in the public sector. The authors conclude by discussing some of the practical and theoretical issues to have emerged from contracting out, ethical issues surrounding the whole privatization debate and implications for the future of the prison system and penal policy.
