Description

Explore the complex connections between human geography and the sociology of punishment in contemporary Russia. This academic work from Oxford University Press examines how distance affects the lives of women in the penal system. By applying established penological and geographical theories, the book investigates how the Russian penal service uses geographic distance as a factor in the sentencing and incarceration process. This study provides a unique perspective on the female experience within the Russian carceral system. It relies on direct empirical research, providing a deep look into how being sent far from home shapes the lives of those serving sentences. Readers gain access to primary accounts through extensive interviews conducted by the authors and their research team. These firsthand perspectives include voices from adult women prisoners, juvenile women prisoners, and ex-prisoners, offering a comprehensive view of the social and spatial realities of incarceration.
