Drawing on sometimes startlingly candid interviews with prisoners and prison staff, as well as on official records, the authors walk us through the byzantine grievance process, which begins with prisoners filing claims and ends after four levels of review, with corrections officials usually denying requests for remedies. Appealing to Justice is both an unprecedented study of disputing in an extremely asymmetrical setting and a rare glimpse of daily life inside this most closed of institutions. Quoting extensively from their interviews with prisoners and officials, the authors give voice to those who are almost never heard from. These voices unsettle conventional wisdoms within the sociological literature-for example, about the reluctance of vulnerable and/or stigmatized populations to name injuries and file claims, and about the relentlessly adversarial subjectivities of prisoners and correctional officials-and they do so with striking poignancy. Ultimately, Appealing to Justice reveals a system fraught with impediments and dilemmas, which delivers neither justice, nor efficiency, nor constitutional conditions of confinement. 606 $aGrievance procedures for prisoners$zCalifornia 606 $aPrisoners$xCivil rights$zCalifornia 606 $aPrisoners$zCalifornia$xSocial conditions 606 $aPrisons$xLaw and legislation$zCalifornia 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aGrievance procedures for prisoners 615 0$aPrisoners$xCivil rights 615 0$aPrisoners$xSocial conditions. 615 0$aPrisons$xLaw and legislation 676 $a365/.64 700 $aCalavita$b Kitty$01037526 702 $aJenness$b Valerie$f1963- 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910463830603321 996 $aAppealing to justice$92458553 997 $aUNINA 999 $p$73.50$u06/17/2016$5Soc
