by Jeffrey Ian Ross (Author)
Convict criminology (CC) is based on the belief that the convict's voice has been traditionally ignored or marginalized in scholarship and policy debates, and that its inclusion can positively impact the fields of corrections, criminology, criminal justice, and policy making. Designed for students, scholars, and activists worldwide this is the first sole-authored book to comprehensively explain the CC approach to scholarship, teaching, mentorship, and prison and criminal justice activism. It reviews the history and scholarship on this engaging field and the challenges that the approach has encountered. It features: - exhibit boxes - keywords - test questions - including multiple choice, short answer and essay format.
