Doing Time: An Introduction to the Sociology of Imprisonment de R. Matthews

Doing Time: An Introduction to the Sociology of Imprisonment

Autor R. Matthews
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 9 iul 1999
This book is designed to acquaint students with some of the main issues associated with the emergence and development of the modern prison. It draws on a range of sociological theorising in order to analyse the organisation and the functioning of the prison. It examines the conditions for the expansion of the prison and explores the possibilities for limiting prison use through the development of alternatives to custody. In particular, it looks in some detail at the relation between imprisonment and class, age, gender and race.

Recenzii

'...a good criminology textbook...should be a well-written volume providing a wide range of reliable data and textual reference, while comprehensively engaging with the main theoretical debates. If, at the same time...[it] manages to conceptualise those theoretical debates in their wider cultural, social political and economic contexts without losing the fluidity of expositional style and vividness of example desirable in introductory texts, then the author might even be congratulated on producing an unusually excellent primer. Such a rare feat has been achieved by Roger Matthews in his book...The most admirable aspect...is the elegant and economic way in which Matthews provides a broad sweep of empirical data and theoretical perspectives in one small volume.' - Pat Carlen, Professor of Criminology, University of Bath
