Description

First published in 1999 and now revived by Routledge, this collection of articles examines the contentious debate surrounding prison labour across multiple countries and international contexts. The volume provides foundational information for reconsidering long-held assumptions about whether prison labour constitutes rehabilitation or exploitation. Contributors explore this controversial topic through diverse perspectives, presenting sometimes opposing viewpoints that have characterised discussion over the years. The book combines country-specific case studies with broader international analysis, offering readers a comprehensive stock-taking exercise on prison labour practices. Ideal for scholars, researchers, and students in anthropology, sociology, law, and social sciences seeking to understand the complexities of incarceration systems and labour practices worldwide.
