Verkäuferbewertung 4 von 5 Sternen
Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book examines the controversy surrounding one of the two competing systems of prison discipline that existed in the 1800s: the Separate System, or solitary confinement, versus the Congregate System, or the silent system. The author's careful analysis of official documents reveals discrepancies in the arguments of those supporting the silent system. Through statistical evidence and expert testimony, this book highlights the flawed assumptions and biased reporting that characterized opponents of the Separate System. Despite claims that solitary confinement was psychologically damaging and led to increased mortality, the author demonstrates that the silent system had its own severe drawbacks, including a higher rate of mental illness and death among prisoners. Ultimately, this book challenges the dominant narrative of the silent system's superiority and offers a nuanced perspective on the challenges and complexities of prison reform. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers 9781333642884_0
