Description

Partial Justice provides a necessary look at a topic often missed in contemporary research. While studies on crime, prisons, and social control frequently overlook female perspectives, this book serves as the only full-scale study of the origins and development of women's prisons in the United States. Tracing the evolution of these institutions from the late eighteenth century to the present day, the text explores how penal treatment helped define womanhood for incarcerated individuals. This definition was not uniform, as it changed based on an individual's race and social class. By examining two markedly different models of custodial institutions, the research offers a deep understanding of how women's prisons have functioned over centuries. This work is an essential resource for those studying the history of the American legal system and the sociology of incarceration.
