What's New
We would like to offer a special thanks to Mrs. Kathryn Miller's class at the Valley Charter School in Northern California for providing the following links her students came across while conducting research on criminology. While undertaking a criminology project, her students referenced the efforts of Convict Criminology and believed the resource links they found would benefit others. We agree!
BOOK REVIEW: Jeffrey Ian Ross and Stephen C. Richards Beyond Bars: Rejoining Society After Prison New York: Penguin Group, Inc., 2009. 224 pp. ISBN 978-1-59257-851-1
Lisa Marie Carter Criminal Justice Review, December 2010; vol. 35, 4: pp. 539-541.
Offenders leaving prison may see rejoining society as a source of incredible liberation, full of
freedoms only dreamt about behind bars. However, their fantasies are rarely experienced once
outside and in recognition of this, ex-cons face harsh realities as they rejoin society. Ross and
Richards (2009) suggest that every ex-con would benefit from a ‘‘reality check’’ where reality and
fantasy are aligned so that ex-cons, if properly sensitized to the barriers of reentry, might avoid
recidivism. This book is that ‘‘reality check’’—a no-nonsense ‘‘practical handbook’’ for those
reentering society and learning to ‘‘make good.’’
Ross and Richards write as advocates in a book that speaks directly to ex-cons, warning them
of the temptations and pitfalls of returning to the environments that contributed to their incarceration.
This balanced book provides readers with two equally important lessons: the first half (Chapters
1–4, 6) is about preparing to exit the prison system and how to deal with correctional
gatekeepers. The second half (Chapters 5, 7–11) is about how to gain human capital and establishing
social capital. Read more...
THE TOUGHEST BEAT: Politics, Punishment, and the Prison Officers Union in California
by Joshua Page, Assistant Professor of Sociology at the University of Minnesota
The Toughest Beat uses sociological theory and extensive fieldwork to demonstrate how the California Correctional Peace Officers Association (CCPOA), the labor union representing prison officers and other correctional workers, has transformed from a loose, fraternal organization into one of the most politically potent and feared interest groups in the nation. As its leaders made strides for its members, the union also influenced the nature, purpose, and scope of imprisonment. To understand California's deep and durable penal crisis, we cannot neglect the story of this group so often known simply as “the powerful prison guards' union.” Read more...
Global Perspectives on Re-Entry
Ekunwe Ikponwosa O. and Jones Richard S. (eds.)
Global Perspectives on Re-Entry explores the challenges facing ex-prisoners as they attempt to return to society after serving time in prison. The problem of re-entry is of growing interest to academics, correctional professionals and policy makers who are concerned with high rates of incarceration and the increase in the numbers of prisoners caught up in the revolving door of criminal justice.
This book is the first attempt to explore the problem of re-entry from an international perspective. The focus of this book is on strategies utilized in various parts of the Western world that shed light on the struggles facing ex-prisoners upon re-entry, as well as on the way different countries have attempted to solve these problems. The book seeks to address the important set of issues involved by bringing together the best of recent research and ideas on the subject of desistance from crime around the world, with a distinct focus on how research might impact upon the implementation of ex-offender reintegration policies.
The book is divided into two sections. The chapters in the first part, Societal/ Institutional Perspective, consider the societal and institutional issues in different countries. The chapters in the second part of the book, Perspective of the Ex-Offender, present various viewpoints of experts with first-hand accounts of the re-entry experiences of ex-convicts.

From Behind the Wall
Mansfield B. Frazier
Commentary on Crime, Punishment, Race and the Underclass by a
Prison Inmate
America is vitally concerned about crime. Since the early 1980's we have
been assailed by images of devastated neighborhoods and destitute families,
of urban gangs running amok and besieged police officers either pummeling
or being pummeled by an ever-bolder criminal element. In reaction to our
understandable concern, our politicians most often have dealt with the problem
of crime in America by “getting tough” -- by stiffening sentences, expanding
police forces, and building more prisons. Yet a doubling of our prison
population in the last decade has not brought with is a corresponding decline
in the glut of violence we see on our streets and in the headlines. At this point
common sense tells us what our civic and national pride refuses to believe:
that criminals are not simply social misfits who resist the civilizing effects of
American culture; rather, American culture itself produces the conditions in
which crime and violence flourish.

Resisting the Carceral State: Prisoner Resistance from the Bottom Up
Jeffrey Ian Ross
Social Justice; 2009/2010; 36, 3; Criminal Justice Periodicals
pg. 28
To Protect its citizens and maintain the status quo, the state has created numerous coercive agencies (Ross, 2005). Some of the most dominant are
law enforcement, intelligence/national security, and the military. Although these organizations have been analyzed in the specific context of state crime
(e.g., Gill, 1995; Menzies, 1995), few scholars have explicitly reviewed correctional institutions (especially correctional workers, their policies and processes)
as perpatrators and facilitators of state crime that can include corruption, civil and human rights violations, and torture (Ross, 2000a, 2000b; Rothe, 2009). In
general, the correctional sanction is established to punish, rehabilitate, and serve as a specific deterrent for lawbreakers. It is also supposed to protect the community
and deter others who might engage in similar criminal activity. Aside from punishment, jail and prison sentences rarely achieve the objectives of the correctional sanction. Read More...

 "Beyond Bars: Rejoining Society After Prison" by Stephen C. Richards, Ph.D.
While promoting his newest book Beyond Bars: Rejoining Society After Prison, Dr. Stephen C. Richards, a Professor of Criminal Justice at the University of Wisconsin-Oshkosh, said all convicts deserve a second chance. Richard’s book explores the lives of Joe and Jill Convict as they leave prison and try to reintegrate into the community as ex-convicts. On December 23, 2009, Richards invited WisconsinEye to hear his speech at Redgranite Correctional Institute where he explained a felon should never let his past behaviors hinder his future.

 So You Think You Know Me?
The autobiography of an ex-offender and twice-times inmate of Barlinnie Prison, now a social work team-leader in his native Scotland.
As a local hard case, author Allan Weaver took no prisoners. Neither does he in this compelling work in which he tells of a life of violent episodes and chaotic early life. Teachers, social workers and ‘authority figures’ never tried ‘to get to know him’ to unearth the clues and triggers and discover what his offending was all about. A natural rebel and a radical, it is hardly surprising that by ignoring the real Allan Weaver this led to an escalation of his violent activities, tensions between family and friends and dubious associates.
So You Think You Know Me? is packed with contradictions: the Allan Weaver involved in mayhem and aggression is not the one telling the story from inside his own head: an often vulnerable, sensitive, articulate, unquestionably loyal and even-handed individual; mistaken, misguided and foolish perhaps but largely trapped by an increasing need to live up to his ‘tough guy’ reputation.

 Politics in the Human Interest
by William Du Bois and R. Dean Wright
-
This book presents the striking proposition that by paying attention to what's been learned about human behavior, we can develop a political agenda that is in the human interest. Such values provide the basis for an action-oriented sociology. Politics in the Human Interest explores the theoretical foundation of a humanistic sociology. It is a call for the return to the original progressive agenda -- that knowledge about human behavior can be used to create social progress and a better world.

 A Nation Public Radio (NPR) Discussion Featuring Jeffrey Ian Ross and Stephen C. Richards
- More than 600,000 people are released from U.S. prisons every year. But imagine re-entering society in today's
economy as a convicted felon. Jeffery Ian Ross and Stephen C. Richards, the authors of the book Beyond Bars, offer insights on a successful reentry into society, the local community and the job market.

Lethal Rejection By Robert Johnson and Sonia Tabriz
-
Lethal Rejection features an array of fiction on crime and punishment written by prisoners, academics and students of criminology.
The authors use short stories, plays, and poetry to provide authentic and vivid depictions of the netherworld that is our penal system.
In the words of noted criminologist and lawyer, Joycelyn Pollock, "this book is fiction; but it is also a book about prison that can
offer a type of truth that numbers can't. Enjoy your reading – if you can."
“Robert Johnson, Sonia Tabriz and their fellow authors paint a compelling picture of lives shaped by crime and dubious punishment.
By connecting us emotionally to people and places too-often hidden from public empathy, these writings force these experiences to the
forefront of our consciousness. In describing real lives and real people sometime obscured by the policy debates on criminal justice,
these fictionalized realities counter a narrow conception of prisoners and their worlds. I highly recommend this book to all students
of the prison.” —Barbara Owen, California State University Fresno
“Too much of the writing about prisons is at arms-length from the experience and reality of confinement. Not this book. The stories
provided in Lethal Rejection are alive with the drama, the emotion, and the deep meaning of living behind bars. The writers give us powerful
and vibrant testimony about the imprisonment experience—something that cannot easily be imagined in the abstract but which can, with the help
of the writings here, be felt in the reading. The book makes us encounter the lives of the confined in a way I have not experienced in any
other book about prison life.” —Todd Clear, Distinguished Professor of Criminal Justice, John Jay College of Criminal Justice, City University of New York

Beyond Bars: Rejoining Society After Prison By Jeffrey Ian Ross and Stephen C. Richards
- The United States has the largest criminal justice system in the world, with currently over 7 million adults and juveniles in jail,
prison, or community custody. Because they spend enough time in prison to disrupt their connections to their families and their communities,
they are not prepared for the difficult and often life-threatening process of reentry. As a result, the percentage of these people who return
to a life of crime and additional prison time escalates each year. Beyond Bars is the most current, practical, and comprehensive guide for
ex-convicts and their families about managing a successful reentry into the community and includes:
- Tips on how to prepare for release while still in Prison
- Ways to deal with family members, especially spouses and children
- Finding a job
- Money issues such as budgets, bank accounts, taxes, and debt
- Avoiding drugs and other illicit activities
- Free resources to rely on for support

Cutting the Edge: Current Perspectives in Radical/Critical Criminology and Criminal Justice By Jeffrey Ian Ross
- Understanding crime, criminals, and criminal justice from a radical/critical perspective is indispensable in today’s academic, applied research,
and policy sectors. Neglect of this approach leads to narrow-mindedness and the probability of repeating past mistakes or reinventing the wheel.
Cutting the Edge by Jeffrey Ian Ross will encourage individuals and organizations, especially students and instructors, to innovatively identify
ways of experimenting with new policy initiatives designed to improve not only criminal justice, but social and human justice as well.
Ross has significantly changed this volume to include six new chapters and three revised ones as well. The studies chosen demonstrate the difference
between critical criminology and other approaches used to study and explain criminological phenomena. The authors do not approach the inequalities
of the criminal justice system as phenomena that should be studied, but as wrongs that must be righted.
Cutting-edge critical criminology combines concerns about fairness in punishment, tools of class analysis and the insights of feminism,
postmodernism, and ethnography. The authors included here wield these newer tools with elegance and enthusiasm. Written with passion by experts in
the field, the book engages the mind as fully as it engages the emotions.

- One more addition to the "Book" section; The Prisoner's World: Portraits of Convicts Caught in the Incarceration Binge (Lexington Books, Series: Issues in Crime and Justice)
by William Tregea and Marjorie S. Larmour.
Drawing on twenty-five years of teaching prison college and volunteer classes in eleven Michigan and California prisons, The Prisoners'
World: Portraits of Convicts Caught in the Incarceration Binge strives to make the "prisoners' voice" come alive for regular college students.
The book starts off by tracing shifts in social definitions of criminality, and lays out the premises of the U.S. incarceration binge in the 1986 war on drugs laws and subsequent mandatory sentencing and policing. Later chapters discuss issues such as leaving home, cell life, correctional officers and treatment, the homosexual prisoner, and drugs.
Furthermore, the book discusses the teachers' experiences via author narrative essays that draws the reader into prisoner student and prisoner teacher interaction, and what it is like inside prison college classes where both young and older black prisoner students describe growing up in the inner cities.
The book also draws upon over sixty prisoner essays that provide insight on prisoner life and and self-concept with insights on pathways to prison, drug selling, the inner city and guns. There is also a strong focus on the "inside" experiences of entering prison and orientation, daily work routine, correctional officers and surreptitious activities like cell cooking and contraband. These essays are capped by prisoner critiques of prison life from those still in the system.
The Prisoners' World serves as a successful supplemental book whose material has proven useful in undergraduate criminal justice classes. As college students themselves, on-campus students in these classes will identify with the prisoner-student voices who share their experiences but in a radically different environment.--Lexington Books
