Conned: How Millions Went to Prison, Lost the Vote, and Helped Send George W. Bush to the White House
By Sasha Abramsky. More than four million Americans, mainly poor, black, and Latino, have lost the right to vote. In some states, as many as a third of all African American men cannot take part in the most basic right of a democracy. The reason? Felony disenfranchisement laws, which remove the vote from people while they are in prison or on parole, and, in several states, for the rest of their lives.

Cruel Justice: Three Strikes and the Politics of Crime in America's Golden State
By Joe Domanick. 2004. Paperback. When the people of California overwhelmingly voted for the 1994 "three
strikes" law, many had no idea what they were approving. What few people
realized, however, was that the sweeping nature of the law would put
thousands of nonviolent men and women in prison for twenty-five years to
life, for crimes as minor as shoplifting $2.69 worth of AA batteries,
forging a check for $94.94, or attempting to buy a macadamia nut disguised
as a $5 rock of cocaine. Joe Domanick reveals the drama of the shattered
lives involved with the law. Focusing on personal stories, Cruel Justice
expands to tell the larger tale of how the law came into existence; how it
has played out; what political, social, and economic forces lie behind it;
and how the politics of crime and fear work in America. Domanick
demonstrates how laws passed in haste, without deliberation, and in reaction
to public hysteria can have unforeseen consequences as tragic as those they
were designed to thwart.

Golden Gulag: Prisons, Surplus, Crisis, and Opposition in Globalizing California
By Ruth Wilson Gilmore (2006). Since 1980, the number of people in U.S. prisons has increased more than 450%. California has led the way in this explosion, with what a state analyst called "the biggest prison building project in the history of the world." Golden Gulag provides the first detailed explanation for that buildup by looking at how political and economic forces, ranging from global to local, conjoined to produce the prison boom. In an informed and impassioned account, Ruth Wilson Gilmore examines this issue through statewide, rural, and urban perspectives to explain how the expansion developed from surpluses of finance capital, labor, land, and state capacity. The results--a vast and expensive prison system, a huge number off incarcerated young people of color, and the increase in punitive justice such as the "three strikes" law--pose profound and troubling questions for the future of California, the United States, and the world.

Imprisoning America: The Social Effects of Mass Incarceration
By Mary Pattillo, David Weiman, and Bruce Western. Russell Sage Foundation, 2004. Imprisoning America illustrates that the experience of incarceration itself, and not just the criminal involvement of inmates, negatively affects diverse aspects of society. By contributing to the social exclusion, incarceration may actually increase crime rates, and threaten public safety. This book highlights the need for new policies to support ex-prisoners and the families and communities to which they return.
In an Abusive State: How Neoliberalism Appropriated the Feminist Movement against Sexual Violence
By Kristin Bumiller (Duke). In an Abusive
State puts forth a powerful argument: that the
feminist campaign to stop sexual violence has entered
into a problematic alliance with the neoliberal
state. Kristin Bumiller chronicles the evolution of
this alliance by examining the history of the
anti-violence campaign, the production of cultural
images about sexual violence, professional discourses
on intimate violence, and the everyday lives of
battered women. In the process, Bumiller reveals how
the feminist fight against sexual violence has been
shaped over recent decades by dramatic shifts in
welfare policies, incarceration rates, and the
surveillance role of social-service bureaucracies.
Drawing on archival research, individual case
studies, testimonies of rape victims, and interviews
with battered women, Bumiller raises fundamental
concerns about the construction of sexual violence as
a social problem. She describes how placing the issue
of sexual violence on the public agenda has polarized
gender- and race-based interests. She contends that
as the social welfare state has intensified
regulation and control, the availability of services
for battered women and rape victims has become
increasingly linked to their status as victims and
their ability to recognize their problems in medical
and psychological terms. Bumiller suggests that to
counteract these tendencies, sexual violence should
primarily be addressed in the context of communities
and in terms of its links to social disadvantage. In
an Abusive State is an impassioned call for feminists
to reflect on how the co-optation of their movement
by the neoliberal state creates the potential to
inadvertently harm impoverished women and support
punitive and racially based crime control efforts.

Instead of Prisons: A Handbook for Prison Abolitionists
Mike Morris, ed. Prison Research Education Action Project, 1976. From discussions on the range of voices that comprise the movement for prison abolition to demystification of the myths surrounding the justification of imprisonment and practical steps toward breaking free from relying on imprisonment, Instead Of Prisons offers organizrs and activists a primer for strategy and actin in the fight to build a world without prisons. A reprint of this 1976 classic, with a new introduction from Critical Resistance.
When it was first published almost three decades ago, Instead of Prisons proposed a conceptual toolkit for those of us who believed then that ever larger numbers of prisons would result in a dangerous entrenchment of the racism we were trying to eliminate. We now face what was our worst nightmare: proliferating penal institutions linked to a global prison industrial complex that transforms bodies of color into society's excess. The republication of this handbook by Critical Resistance is a response to this contemporary emergency. Prisons must be abolished or there will be no hope for a democratic future.

Making It in the Free World: Women in Transition from Prison
By Patricia O'Brien. SUNY series in Women, Crime, and Criminology. Paperback, 2001.
Explores how women who were incarcerated make the transition from prison
back into society. This is the first study to address the important but
neglected topic of how women return to the "free world" after single or
multiple experiences of incarceration. It uses first-person narratives and a
comprehensive review of contemporary theory to provide useful suggestions
for practitioners and policymakers concerned with responding to the
increasing number of women in the criminal justice system.
The book challenges practitioners to be more proactive in recognizing the
needs of this population and more responsive to these needs. O'Brien
suggests policy changes, especially related to alternatives to
incarceration. The first-person narratives of non-recidivist women provide
concrete and powerful examples of the crucial mix of ingredients any woman
needs to remain free and empowered in a context of powerlessness and
increasing social control.
Merchandizing Prisoners: Who Really Pays for Prison Privatization?

The Prison and the Gallows: The Politics of Mass Incarceration in America
By Marie Gottschalk, Cambridge University Press. June2006.
Over the last three decades the United States has built a carceral state
that is unprecedented among Western countries and in US history. Nearly one
in 50 people, excluding children and the elderly, is incarcerated today, a
rate unsurpassed anywhere else in the world. What are some of the main
political forces that explain this unprecedented reliance on mass
imprisonment? Throughout American history, crime and punishment have been
central features of American political development. This book examines the
development of four key movements that mediated the construction of the
carceral state in important ways: the victims' movement, the women's
movement, the prisoners' rights movement, and opponents of the death
penalty. This book argues that punitive penal policies were forged by
particular social movements and interest groups within the constraints of
larger institutional structures and historical developments that distinguish
the United States from other Western countries.
Prison Profiteers: Who Makes Money from Mass Incarceration
Paul Wright & Tara Herivel
This is the third and latest book in a series of Prison Legal News anthologies that examines the reality of mass imprisonment in America.
Locking up 2.3 million people isn't cheap. Each year
federal, state, and local governments spend over $185
billion annually in tax dollars to ensure that one out of
every 137 Americans is imprisoned. Prison Profiteers looks
at the private prison companies, investment banks,
churches, guard unions, medical corporations, and other
industries and individuals that benefit from this
country's experiment with mass imprisonment. It lets us
follow the money from public to private hands and exposes
how monies formerly designated for the public good are
diverted to prisons and their maintenance.
Contributors include: Judy Greene on private prison giants
Geo (formerlyWackenhut) and CCA; Anne-Marie Cusac on who
sells electronic weapons to prison guards; Wil S. Hylton
on the largest prison health care provider; Ian Urbina on

Race to Incarcerate
By Marc Mauer. New York: The New Press, 1999.
Right to be Hostile: Schools, Prisons, and the Making of Public Enemies
(Paperback) Scholar and activist Erica Meiners
offers concrete examples and new insights into the
school to prison' pipeline phenomenon, showing how
disciplinary regulations, pedagogy, pop culture and
more not only implicitly advance, but actually
normalize an expectation of incarceration for urban
youth. Analyzed through a framework of an expanding
incarceration nation, Meiners demonstrates how
educational practices that disproportionately target
youth of color become linked directly to practices of
racial profiling that are endemic in state
structures. As early as preschool, such educational
policies and practices disqualify increasing numbers
of students of color as they are funneled through
schools as under-educated, unemployable, 'dangerous,'
and in need of surveillance and containment. By
linking schools to prisons, Meiners asks researchers,
activists, and educators to consider not just how our
schools' physical structures resemble prisons - metal
detectors or school uniforms - but the tentacles in
policies, practices and informal knowledge that
support, naturalize, and extend, relationships
between incarceration and schools. Understanding how
and why prison expansion is possible necessitates
connecting schools to prisons and the criminal
justice system, and redefining what counts as
educational policy. London & NY, NY: Routledge, 2007

In 2003, members of the Henry David Thoreau
Unitarian Universalist Congregation of Fort Bend
County, Texas, began a letter-writing program with

college students. Speer's book describes how these
programs started and evolved, sharing details about
what worked, what didn't and how the experience was
transformational for all involved.

When the Prisoners Ran Walpole: A True Story in the Movement for Prison Abolition
By Jamie Bissonette, with Ralph Hamm, Robert Dellelo,
and Edward Rodman. South End Press, April 2008. In
1971, Attica's prison yard massacre shocked the
public, prisoners, and political leaders across the
United States. Massachusetts residents pledged to
prevent such slaughter from ever happening there, and
the governor agreed. Thus began a move for reform
that eventually led to the prisoners at Walpole's
Massachusetts Correctional Institute winning control
of its day-to-day operations, with tremendous
results. When the Prisoners Ran Walpole brings this
vital history to life, revealing what can happen when
there is public will for change and trust that the
incarcerated can achieve it. For the first time in US
history, prisoners secured authorization for their
union to conduct collective bargaining with the
prison administration. Their union, the National
Prisoners Reform Association (NPRA), enabled
prisoners to address their living and working
conditions from the inside.
