Less evident, however, is how gender differences shape those policies, and how gender identity and roles shape women's adaptation and resistance to prison culture and control. Women in Prison explores how the gender-based attitudes that women bring to prison frame how they respond to the prison environment—and how gender stereotypes continue to affect the treatment and opportunities of incarcerated women today. The authors focus especially on how the personal and social problems imported into the prison setting become part of the intricate web of prison culture. Their study reveals just how extensively women's prison experience reflects the control and domination they experienced in the outside world.Women prisonersUnited StatesSex roleUnited StatesWomen prisonersSex role365/.43Zaitzow Barbara H.Thomas Jim1941-MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910819854603321Women in prison4023879UNINA
