Incarceration and Generation, Volume II

“Incarceration and Generation is the result of a truly international and interdisciplinary cooperation, with a broad comparative scope, pluralist in methodology, and strongly motivated by the commitment of contributing to the effectiveness of human rights in situations of detention.” – Pierre Guibentif, Université Paris-Saclay, France “Not quite life-course criminology, not quite family studies, this treatment of “generation” and incarceration covers children's issues, parenting, intergenerational transmission, age and aging, and other topics relevant to our movement through the life cycle and through history. Readers will appreciate the blend of conceptual, quantitative, and qualitative work, the diversity in geographic representation, and the coverage of both timeless problems and current events.” – Sonja E. Siennick, Florida State University, USA This two-volume, edited collection lays the groundwork for an international exploration of incarceration and generation, covering a range of geographic, judicial and administrative contexts of incarceration from contributors across a range of subjects. Volume II examines intergenerational relations issues within contexts of incarceration. It focuses on the intergenerational continuities in imprisonment; intergenerational justice and citizenship; the impacts of incarceration on multiple generations and within families; and media representations of the intergenerationality of incarceration. Volume I explores an array of experiences, dynamics, cultures, interventions, and impacts of incarceration in different generations. This collection speaks to academics in criminology, sociology, psychology, and law, and to practitioners and policymakers interested in incarceration.
