From musty medieval dungeons to modern concrete cell-blocks, prison
architecture reveals much about how a society sees fit to control
and contain those who transgress its boundaries. Forms of
Constraint is the first general volume to consider how prison
design has evolved over the centuries, how it has taken shape in
various corners of the globe, and how it reflects the society that
oversees it. Embedding his discussion of architectural detail in a
history of social ideas about prisoners and imprisonment,
criminologist Norman Johnston considers the architectural design
and features of prisons in light of the purposes they were meant to
serve.
