The journal Social Justice has a new issue out, titled Beyond Mass Incarceration: Crisis and Critique in North American Penal Systems. The issue examines the latest developments in incarceration rhetoric and policy and promises to be a very engrossing read. Among the highlights are an article by Marie Gottschalk, who expresses pessimism about the two strands of prison reform–racial justice and bipartisan initiatives. There are also reviews of Jonathan Simon’s Mass Incarceration on Trial and of Cheap on Crime. The issue sells for $13.45, which seems like a pretty worthwhile investment in such interesting content.
