In this examination of violence behind bars, Rebecca Trammell illuminates the social code that prisoners enforce—in defiance of official rules and regulations—to maintain a predictable order. Trammell also compares the experiences of male and female prisoners, underscoring the role of gender and sexual assault in shaping life behind bars. Equally important, she explores the significance of prison culture for the fate of convicts when they leave the prison environment.Prison violenceUnited StatesPrison administrationUnited StatesPrisonersUnited StatesPrison violencePrison administrationPrisoners365/.60973Trammell Rebecca1500921MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910786102903321Enforcing the convict code3727816UNINA
