Political economy of punishment; Neo-marxian approach; Prison population
Abstract :
[en] 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.
