New funding for prison research
New research to foster better understandings of prisons and reform processes.
RCT senior researcher Andrew M. Jefferson and his project
'Understanding prison reform - a study of entangled practices in
Sierra Leone, Kosovo and the Philippines' has been granted 870.960
Danish kroner from the Danish Council for Independent Research.
The project will illuminate reform processes through analysis of
the interplay between penal practices and reform practices. Focus
will be on the dynamics, rationales and everyday practices of
prisons and reform agencies but most importantly on the way the two
come together.
