The Prisoner Society: Power, Adaptation and Social Life in an English Prison - Clarendon Studies in Criminology
Crewe, Ben (Senior Research Associate at the Institute of Criminology, Cambridge)
Based on in-depth fieldwork in a medium-security training prison for men, The Prisoner Society offers a comprehensive analysis of contemporary imprisonment. In particular, it explains how penal power is exerted by the institution, how prisoners adapt to its terms, and the relationships, hierarchies, and everyday dynamics that characterise the prisoner social world.
