Abstract:

This chapter focuses on prisoners and relatives’ narratives to analyse how they negotiate relationships in the shadow of prison and to explore their views on the relational, familial, social, and economic implications of imprisonment. The analysis is based in the Portuguese context, as it is a country that has been witnessing a substantial increase in the prison population. Among the information publicly available about the socio-demographic characterization of the Portuguese prison population, there is no data on family-related dimensions. The absence of a method that collects, analyses, and disseminates information about the familial situation of prisoners is representative of the invisibility of the theme on the public debate. Moreover, this chapter is the first in-depth and comprehensive Portuguese research that jointly takes into consideration prisoners and relatives views’ on the social and familial implications of imprisonment.

Abstract:

Normalizing Extreme Imprisonment offers a new explanation for how penal reforms and those driving them can end up normalizing, in the sense of making the public view as acceptable, incredibly severe punitive practices. Since its introduction in 1978 as an alternative to the death penalty, there has been a dramatic increase and expansion of life without parole (LWOP) in the United States, including beyond the scope of capital crimes for which it was originally conceived. Despite this growth, limited attention has been given to this punishment and very few attempts made to narrow its scope or curtail its proliferation. Emerging scholarship suggests the punishment has been ‘normalized’, in part because of how some death penalty abolitionists have framed and used LWOP. Drawing upon a range of evidence and using the development of LWOP in the Californian death penalty context over 40 years as an example, this book significantly deepens and extends this claim to offer a new explanation for how extreme forms of imprisonment become normalized. To discuss the extent to which some opponents to the death penalty may have facilitated, participated in, or perhaps even animated the three main normalizing mechanisms (visibility, denial, and routinization), this book focuses on three sites where death penalty abolitionists have lobbied, campaigned, pled and settled, for LWOP, namely Congress, the broader political sphere, and courtrooms. The book then contrasts these representations of LWOP’s severity with prisoners’ lived experiences detailed in an exceptional set of 299 letters.

Abstract:

This chapter focuses on the evolution of the U.S. imprisonment system and examines the relevance of the system’s development in relation to correctional psychiatry. The first section of the chapter reviews the history of American prisons, including their shifting purposes, standards, and practices. The second portion of the chapter highlights the persistent lack of regard for prisoners with mental illness throughout the history of American penology, and explains how rehabilitation theory has intersected with the diagnostics and treatment of persons experiencing psychiatric disorders while criminally confined. Moreover, the swelling number of inmates with psychiatric disorders found in correctional settings today has converted jails and prisons into ill-equipped de facto institutions that warehouse the mentally ill much like the practice of the 19th century. Indeed, while American prison systems are beginning to implement some novel accommodations for persons with psychiatric disorders, they are often subjected to the same punitive treatment of isolative confinement that was popularized during the 19th century. The chapter concludes by discussing the current status of imprisonment in the United States, noting that as a consequence of the War on Drugs more than 31 million people have been arrested and convicted for these criminal offenses, leading to systematic mass incarceration that adversely and unequally impacts people of color.

Abstract:

This chapter considers how the prisoner copes with the ‘pains of imprisonment’. It suggests that coping in prison relies on practices that engage the prisoner’s body in a paradoxical manner. Coping, it is argued, entails acting for and against one’s own body. To demonstrate this, the chapter considers various coping strategies that, at the same time as they are self-distracting, are arguably also self-destructing or further generate emotional turmoil. Such self-harming strategies include prisoners’ attitudes towards eating, drug use, and often also their healthcare routines. Less harmful yet arguably equally isolating strategies are also considered in relation to practices of bodily care in prison.
