Conclusion. .This book explores the dramatic evolution of a feminist movement that mobilised to challenge a women’s prison system in crisis. Through in-depth historical research conducted in the Australian state of Victoria that spans the 1980s and 1990s, the authors uncover how incarcerated women have worked productively with feminist activists and community coalitions to expose, critique and resist the conditions and harms of their confinement. Resisting Carceral Violence tells the story of how activists, through a combination of creative direct actions, reformist lobbying and legal challenges, forged an anti-carceral feminist movement that traversed the prison walls. This powerful history provides vital lessons for service providers, social justice advocates and campaigners, academics and students concerned with the violence of incarceration. It calls for a willingness to look beyond the prison and instead embrace creative solutions to broader structural inequalities and social harm.Critical criminologyCorrectionsPunishmentCriminologyFeminist theoryCritical Criminologyhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/1B1000Prison and Punishmenthttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/1B9000Criminological Theoryhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/1B6000Feminismhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/E44030Critical criminology.Corrections.Punishment.Criminology.Feminist theory.Critical Criminology.Prison and Punishment.Criminological Theory.Feminism.364.068365.608209945Carlton Breeauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut933364Russell Emma Kauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/autBOOK9910303437303321Resisting Carceral Violence2242480UNINA
