The Meaning of Rehabilitation and its Impact on Parole

There and Back Again in California

This book queries the concept of rehabilitation to determine how, on a legislative and policy level, the term is defined as a goal of correctional systems. The book explores what rehabilitation is by investigating how its conceptualization has shaped, and been shaped by, shifting norms, practices, and institutions of corrections in California. The author calls for a rethinking of theoretical understandings of the corrections and parole systems, and for an expansion in the questions asked in reintegration studies. The book is designed for scholars seeking to understand the relationship between correctional systems and rehabilitation and the full scope of rehabilitation as a legislative goal.
