Karyl Kicenski examines the privatization of California state prisons to illuminate the forces that shape and distort our criminal justice policies. Tracing the growth of private prisons from 1980 to the current day, Kicenski explores the role of political and economic factors, as well as the impact of changing public attitudes toward crime and governance. The result is a clear set of lessons for the uneasy partnership between public safety and for-profit enterprise. 606 $aPrison-industrial complex$zCalifornia 606 $aPrison industries$zCalifornia 606 $aPrisons$zCalifornia 606 $aCorrections$zCalifornia 606 $aPrivatization$zCalifornia 615 0$aPrison-industrial complex 615 0$aPrison industries 615 0$aPrisons 615 0$aCorrections 615 0$aPrivatization 676 $a365/.9794 700 $aKicenski$b Karyl$01654301 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910808329503321 996 $aCashing in on crime$94006037 997 $aUNINA
