Klappentext zu „Beyond Scandinavian Exceptionalism “
This book explores how prison life is normalized in different countries, with a critical and detailed look at 'Scandinavian exceptionalism' - the idea that Scandinavian prisons have exceptionally humane conditions - and compares these prisons to ones in Belgium. It provides a more nuanced, systematic and contextualized comparison of normalization in two countries. Through analyzing policy and legislative documents, participant observation and interviews, it seeks to understand how normalization is implemented differently in prison legislation, policies and practices and compares the two societies for context. It also considers the material prison environment, security, the social environment and the use of time in prison. It provides insights into how normalization can be successfully and holistically implemented in both policy and practice, to contribute to a more 'pure' form of liberty deprivation as punishment without too many unintended effects.Inhaltsverzeichnis zu „Beyond Scandinavian Exceptionalism “
