Moral Communication and Men Convicted of Sex Offenses
Contenu
"A highly original and empirically grounded account of what imprisonment communicates and fails to communicate to men convicted of sexual offenses. This book is, by some distance, the best-developed analysis of how men in this position experience and make sense of their punishment."—Fergus McNeill, author of Pervasive Punishment: Making Sense of Mass Supervision
"The Stains of Imprisonment gives the reader captivating insight into the world that is prison for men convicted of sex offenses. Ievins deftly weaves together theoretical discussions of feminism and the carceral with the nuanced experiences of the men interviewed. A definite must-read for anyone interested in punishment and prison."—Rosemary Ricciardelli, author of Also Serving Time: Canada’s Provincial and Territorial Correctional Officers
