Description:

This synthesis of the existing and emerging literature on prison activism lays out the issues in a very straightforward, jargon-free way for students, to give them a broad-based background on the issues confronting prisons today.

There are growing numbers of students enrolling in Criminology/Criminal Justice programs, and this book will be invaluable to the faculty within those departments committed to disrupting the dominant traditions in the field (this is on the forefront of the trend!).

Includes discussion of the most important topics, such as the treatment of women, AIDS activists, prison labor unions, First Amendment rights of speech, Black Power and the Nation of Islam, and many more, to give students a more complex picture of prison activism.
