Excerpt: ... that in a great deal of the reasoning of Captain Maconochie, and in his principles, so far as they are applied to what I have ventured to term the second stage in a prisoner's treatment, I very much concur. 6687. Then, in fact, I understand from your Lordship's explanation, that you consider, under the separate, system that the penal and reformatory elements exist concurrently?--Clearly. 6688. And that the real effect of this sentence (i. e., a sentence in the evidence previously given by his Lordship) would be, that you would be sorry to see solitude, as the more penal part, diminished?--Yes. No. X. Some persons, who are decided advocates of Separation, question the necessity for "separate" exercising yards, partitions in Chapel, and cap peaks for covering the face during the very few minutes occupied in passing from one part of the prison to another. They contend that the separation may be maintained rigorously without these precautions. It appears to me, however, that these expedients can hardly fail to increase, more or less, the rigour of the discipline. But it is important that it should be known, that the object of these arrangements is not merely to cut off the communication more completely, but also to prevent the mutual recognition of prisoners after their liberation. Indeed this may almost be considered as the primary object of these means of seclusion. Now that the convicts are associated for long terms at the public works, this object is of little importance in their case; but in County and Borough prisoners it is an object of very great importance. When a prisoner, not yet hardened in crime, becomes known as a criminal by all the rogues and vagabonds that pass through the prison during the period of bis incarceration, the...

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The use of solitary confinement in prisons became common with the rise of the modern penitentiary during the first half of the nineteenth century and his since remained a feature of many prison systems all over the world. Solitary confinement is used for a panoply of different reasons although research tells us that these practices have widespread negative health effects. Besides the death penalty it is arguably the most punitive and dangerous intervention available to state authorities in democratic nations. Nevertheless, in the United States there is currently an estimated 80-100,000 prisoners in small cells for more than 22 hours per day with little or no social contact and no physical contact visits with family or friends. Even in Scandinavia, thousands of prisoners are placed in solitary confinement every year and with an alarming frequency. These facts have spawned international interest in this topic and a growing international reform movement, which includes researchers, litigators and human rights defenders as well as prison staff and prisoners. This book is the first to take a broad international comparative approach and to apply an interdisciplinary lens to this subject. In this volume neuroscientists, high level prison officials, social and political scientists, medical doctors, lawyers and former prisoners and their families from different countries will address the effects and practices of prolonged solitary confinement and the movement for its reform and abolition.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over the past four decades, the rate of incarceration in the United States has skyrocketed to unprecedented heights, both historically and in comparison to that of other developed nations. At far higher rates than the general population, those in or entering U.S. jails and prisons are prone to many health problems. This is a problem not just for them, but also for the communities from which they come and to which, in nearly all cases, they will return. Health and Incarceration is the summary of a workshop jointly sponsored by the National Academy of Sciences(NAS) Committee on Law and Justice and the Institute of Medicine(IOM) Board on Health and Select Populations in December 2012. Academics, practitioners, state officials, and nongovernmental organization representatives from the fields of healthcare, prisoner advocacy, and corrections reviewed what is known about these health issues and what appear to be the best opportunities to improve healthcare for those who are now or will be incarcerated. The workshop was designed as a roundtable with brief presentations from 16 experts and time for group discussion. Health and Incarceration reviews what is known about the health of incarcerated individuals, the healthcare they receive, and effects of incarceration on public health. This report identifies opportunities to improve healthcare for these populations and provides a platform for visions of how the world of incarceration health can be a better place.

Download or read book Solitary Confinement written by Lisa Guenther and published by U of Minnesota Press. This book was released on 2013-08-01 with total page 454 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Prolonged solitary confinement has become a widespread and standard practice in U.S. prisons—even though it consistently drives healthy prisoners insane, makes the mentally ill sicker, and, according to the testimony of prisoners, threatens to reduce life to a living death. In this profoundly important and original book, Lisa Guenther examines the death-in-life experience of solitary confinement in America from the early nineteenth century to today’s supermax prisons. Documenting how solitary confinement undermines prisoners’ sense of identity and their ability to understand the world, Guenther demonstrates the real effects of forcibly isolating a person for weeks, months, or years. Drawing on the testimony of prisoners and the work of philosophers and social activists from Edmund Husserl and Maurice Merleau-Ponty to Frantz Fanon and Angela Davis, the author defines solitary confinement as a kind of social death. It argues that isolation exposes the relational structure of being by showing what happens when that structure is abused—when prisoners are deprived of the concrete relations with others on which our existence as sense-making creatures depends. Solitary confinement is beyond a form of racial or political violence; it is an assault on being. A searing and unforgettable indictment, Solitary Confinement reveals what the devastation wrought by the torture of solitary confinement tells us about what it means to be human—and why humanity is so often destroyed when we separate prisoners from all other people.

This book was released on 2015-06-25 with total page 222 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Pennsylvania System of Separate Confinement Explained and Defended The Philadelphia Society for Ameliorating the Miseries of Public Prisons, has from its foundation (more than eighty years ago) labored towards the object set forth in its title. Its members have reason to felicitate themselves in the belief that their labors have been beneficial, directly, in their immediate vicinity and in many parts of this Commonwealth, and reflectively and as imitable examples in other parts of the United States and even in Great Britain, and on the Continent of Europe. In attempting to ameliorate the condition of prisoners, consideration has been given not merely to the punishment which is ordered by the Court, but to the construction of the building used as a prison, and to the character of the discipline to which the convict is submitted. To the last branch, namely, the discipline for prisoners especial attention has been given by the Society, and that has led to a consideration of the mode of construction best adapted to the form of discipline approved.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Based on ethnographic observations and interviews with prisoners, correctional officers, and civilian staff conducted in solitary confinement units, Way Down in the Hole explores the myriad ways in which daily, intimate interactions between those locked up twenty-four hours a day and the correctional officers charged with their care, custody, and control produce and reproduce hegemonic racial ideologies. Smith and Hattery explore the outcome of building prisons in rural, economically depressed communities, staffing them with white people who live in and around these communities, filling them with Black and brown bodies from urban areas and then designing the structure of solitary confinement units such that the most private, intimate daily bodily functions take place in very public ways. Under these conditions, it shouldn’t be surprising, but is rarely considered, that such daily interactions produce and reproduce white racial resentment among many correctional officers and fuel the racialized tensions that prisoners often describe as the worst forms of dehumanization. Way Down in the Hole concludes with recommendations for reducing the use of solitary confinement, reforming its use in a limited context, and most importantly, creating an environment in which prisoners and staff co-exist in ways that recognize their individual humanity and reduce rather than reproduce racial antagonisms and racial resentment.
