Book excerpt: Excerpt from Observations and Reflections on the Penitentiary System: A Letter From Franklin Bache, M.D., To Roberts Vaux It may easily be conceived that one of the greatest obstrue tions to the reform of criminals, who have for the first time violated the laws, is the abandonment of friends and relatives. Now nothing operates so much to produce this abandonment, asthe moral contamination of gregarious confinement. We may suppose that a single crime. Might be forgiven, if the moral disease had not been aggravated, I will not say'rendera ed incurable, by the mistaken vengeance of the law. What idea more revolting to our feelings, or stinging to the pride, than that the individual, in whose fate we possibly take a deep interest, from the claims of consanguinity or early friendship, may be familiarly taken by the hand. By several hundreds of the most hardened ofi'enders. If such individual had been separately confined, he is returned to his friends at the mi. Ration of his sentence, at least not rendered worse than, at its commencement, and his disgrace is known to comparatively few. N o wound is inflicted hythe claimed fellowship of the most abandoned, and no danger incurred by the individual from their seductive arts. Every circumstance seems favour able to the exertions of his friends to bring him hackto the path of rectitude.

Download or read book State Prisons and the Penitentiary System Vindicated written by Gamaliel Bradford and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2016-11-16 with total page 70 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from State Prisons and the Penitentiary System Vindicated: With Observations on Managing and Conducting These Institutions; Drawn Principally From Experience A system of this nature was early set on foot in the United States on the plan of a Penitentiary, and is now in Operation in almost every State in the Union: it is not, however, without its opposers, but is by many considered as one of those new plans for reform, which, on experiment, fails of producing the desired effects. It is the object of the present work to examine this system, notice the ground of opposition to it, and endeavour to shew, from facts and experience, that the first principles there of are correct, and that with some small improvements, and uh der any thing like a proper management, it possesses peculiar advantages over every other method of punishing criminals heretofore practised, particularly as it respects the following im portant objects, viz.-the peace and safety of society, expense to the community, restraining the increase of crimes, and pro moting the moral improvement of convicts.

Book A Deputy Warden s Reflections on Prison Work

Download or read book A Deputy Warden s Reflections on Prison Work written by Adria L. Libolt and published by Resource Publications (CA). This book was released on 2012-01-20 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is a picture of prison life from the inside. It illustrates prison life as, at turns, exciting, surprising, distressing and, often, amusing. Each day is different, and anyone who walks through a prison gate had better be alert. It tells of the small human dramas that play out daily among staff, prisoners, and others who enter this gated world. It calls the reader to see that justice begins by seeing each person, staff or prisoner, as an individual with his or her own story. The passion of the author is to portray prison life as continuous with life in broader society. In prisons, we meet the same cast of characters, the same temptations, the same dangers, and the same rewards as on the outside. Rather than regarding prisons as separate worlds, we should regard them as extensions of the society in which we live. This is important because there is a continuous flow between prisons and the broader society. Those who go to prison usually return to society. Understanding how prisons work will help us as we consider how to reintegrate former prisoners into our society. As the author argues, this is difficult but important work. ""Here is a prison warden's official story about what it is like . . . deal[ing] constructively with every sort of prisoner in the state correctional system . . . Adria Libolt's story is an engaging inside look at what that means, how that goes, what can be done, and how this one lithesome lady did it for decades with grace and good humor. This narrative . . . is a rewarding surprise that restores one's faith in humankind."" --J. Harold Ellens Founding editor of The Journal of Psychology and Christianity Author of Honest Faith for Our Time ""Adria [Libolt] . . . has been able to . . . listen to inmates, prison employees and family members . . . Each portrayal in this book reveals some truths that could only be discovered and described by someone with [Libolt's] insights and writing ability . . . The United States has a huge prison population, much larger in proportion than other nations. We need to understand the . . . factors contributing to this situation. [Libolt] makes a significant contribution to our learning about the penal system."" --Lois A. Bader Executive director, Capital Area Literacy Coalition Author of Bader Reading and Language Inventory ""An intelligent, perceptive, and honest rendering of prisons and prisoners that will promote a more objective and clear understanding of the criminal justice system and encourage a more humane society. Each gripping chapter blends and compares criminal elements with Ms. Libolt's truthful observations about her own life and contributions. The general public and criminal justice employees and students should read this."" --Tekla Dennison Miller Former Michigan warden Author of The Warden Wore Pink ""Adria Libolt tells compassionate, tough stories about young people in reform schools and adults in maximum-security prisons. She layers each story with nuance, irony, and breadth to show why she feels it is a thin line between a prisoner and the rest of us. Even as she acknowledges the dangers, she feels safer in prison than outside. This book will complicate your perspective on prisoners and the prison system."" --Linda R. Peckham Author of The Pocket Hotline for Writers ""Adria Libolt offers an insightful, compelling perspective on the myriad of issues surrounding our country's corrections systems. This 'inside' look at prison life would be extremely valuable to anyone in a position like mine that requires us to not only take a critical, thoughtful look at what's happening in our corrections system, but to make policy decisions that will have far-reaching consequences for the state and for the employees and prisoners closest to those systems."" --Joan Bauer Legislator Michigan House of Representatives Adria L. Libolt worked as a deputy warden in the Michigan Department of Corrections for over twenty years in prisons with both male and femal

Book On the Penitentiary System in the United States and its Application to France

Download or read book On the Penitentiary System in the United States and its Application to France written by Gustave de Beaumont and published by Springer. This book was released on 2018-05-21 with total page 365 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides the first complete, literal English translation of Alexis de Tocqueville’s and Gustave de Beaumont’s first edition of On the Penitentiary System in the United States and Its Application to France. The work contains a critical comparison of two competing American penitentiary disciplines known as the Auburn and Philadelphia systems, an evaluation of whether American penitentiaries can successfully work in France, a detailed description of Houses of Refuge as the first juvenile detention centers, and an argument against penal colonization. The work provides valuable insights into understanding Tocqueville as a statesman, as well as a comparative look at civic engagement in early American and French penal reform movements. The Translator’s Introduction provides historical context for understanding Tocqueville’s work in French penal reform and the major themes of the report. The book thus fills a void in Tocquevillian studies and extrapolates the roots of American and French criminal justice systems in the nineteenth century.
