Abstract :
[en] Neo-Marxian and neo-Foucaldian Approaches to Long-Term Trends in the Prison Population : Business Cycles, Formulas of Government and Citizenship. Neo-marxist scholars have studied the relations between modes of production, business cycles and long-term trends in the prison population. More recently, they have introduced new institutional and political variables to their model.The results are stimulating. However, some authors highlight some difficulties to explain recent evolutions. Neo-foucaldian scholars have distinguished three formulas of governement. These formulas are characterized by different security devices in which punishment function and significance vary. The panel's main objectives are 1) to investigate whether it is possible to combine these approaches in order to give a better account of the long-term trends in the prison population and, from there, to define strategies for social change. 2) to question the relation between crime and citizenship, both viewed as interfaces for the government of individuals 3) to investigate the feasibility of empirical research that would allow to put the hypotheses raised by the combination of both models to the test.
