Compassionate Confinement brings to light the challenges and complexities inherent in the U.S. system of juvenile corrections. Building on over a year of field work at a boys' residential facility, Laura S. Abrams and Ben Anderson-Nathe provide a context for contemporary institutions and highlight some of the system's most troubling tensions. This ethnographic text utilizes narratives, observations, and case examples to illustrate the strain between treatment and correctional paradigms and the mixed messages regarding gender identity and masculinity that the youths are expected to navigate. Within this context, the authors use the boys' stories to show various and unexpected pathways toward behavior change. While some residents clearly seized opportunities for self-transformation, others manipulated their way toward release, and faced substantial challenges when they returned home. Compassionate Confinement concludes with recommendations for rehabilitating this notoriously troubled system in light of the experiences of its most vulnerable stakeholders. 410 0$aCritical Issues in Crime and Society 606 $aJuvenile corrections$zUnited States 606 $aJuvenile detention homes$zUnited States$vCase studies 606 $aJuvenile delinquents$xRehabilitation$zUnited States 615 0$aJuvenile corrections 615 0$aJuvenile detention homes 615 0$aJuvenile delinquents$xRehabilitation 676 $a365/.420973 700 $aAbrams$b Laura S$01612334 701 $aAnderson-Nathe$b Ben$01612335 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910806856103321 996 $aCompassionate confinement$93941073 997 $aUNINA
