While some have been sentenced to life in prison without parole, the majority of prisoners serving ?life? will be released back into society. But what becomes of those people who reenter the everyday world after serving life in prison? In After Life Imprisonment, Marieke Liem carefully examines the experiences of ?lifers? upon release. Through interviews with over sixty homicide offenders sentenced to life but granted parole, Liem tracks those able to build a new life on the outside and those who were re-incarcerated. The interviews reveal prisoners? reflections on being sentenced to life, as well as the challenges of employment, housing, and interpersonal relationships upon release. Liem explores the increase in handing out of life sentences, and specifically provides a basis for discussions of the goals, costs, and effects of long-term imprisonment, ultimately unpacking public policy and discourse surrounding long-term incarceration. A profound criminological examination, After Life Imprisonment reveals the untold, lived experiences of prisoners before and after their life sentences. 410 0$aNew perspectives in crime, deviance, and law series. 606 $aRecidivism$zUnited States 606 $aEx-convicts$zUnited States$xEconomic conditions 606 $aEx-convicts$zUnited States$xSocial conditions 606 $aLife imprisonment$xSocial aspects$zUnited States 606 $aMurderers$zUnited States 606 $aPrisoners$xDeinstitutionalization$zUnited States 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aRecidivism 615 0$aEx-convicts$xEconomic conditions. 615 0$aEx-convicts$xSocial conditions. 615 0$aLife imprisonment$xSocial aspects 615 0$aMurderers 615 0$aPrisoners$xDeinstitutionalization 676 $a365.6470973 700 $aLiem$b Marieke$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$01042148 701 $aSampson$b Robert J$046102 801 0$bDE-B1597 801 1$bDE-B1597 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910480121103321 996 $aAfter life imprisonment$92466148 997 $aUNINA
