Inhaltsangabe
Moving between the spaces of the outside community and prison?"out there" and "in here"?this study explores the complicated connections between masculinity and violence in the lives of men incarcerated at a provincial prison. The discussion traces the men's lives and highlights their understanding of their own violence, while looking at the ways in which prison perpetuates the violence inherent in dominant masculinity. By revealing the voices of the jailed men, this analysis is able to show that prison is a gendered space that is not a solution to the public's concerns about crime and violence. Rather, it is a place in which masculine pressures encourage marginalized men to take part in aggression, dominance, and the exercise of brute power as legitimate social practices.

Soft cover. Zustand: Very Good. Clean, tight, unmarked; absolute minimal wear; appears unread; Comack explores the complicated connections between masculinity and violence in the lives of men incarcerated at a provincial prison. Prison is a gendered space in which violence is a systemic feature and the pressures on men to 'do' masculinity are even more pronounced. Sending racialized and economically marginalized men to prison only encourages and reaffirms aggression, dominance, and the exercise of brute power as legitimate social practices.
