Beskrivning
Revolution in Penology is a thoroughly original and thought-provoking critique of penal harm, the recursive pains of imprisonment cycle, and the normalization of violence. Relying on selected insights derived from continental philosophy, cultural studies, and chaos theory, internationally renowned social theorists, Bruce A. Arrigo and Dragan Milovanovic, deconstruct the human agency/social structure duality that sustains the prison form, its parts and segments understood as correctional principles/practices, and the prison industrial complex that is informed by and stands above them all.

Recensioner i media
Arrigo (Univ. of North Carolina, Charlotte) and Milovanovic (Northeastern Illinois Univ.) provide a provocative and critical examination of the US penal system. Highly theoretical (postmodern), . . . it is nonetheless very well argued. Recommended.
