The world we live in is characterized by a growing number of prisons and widespread experiences of incarceration. Carceral Worlds, a timely and essential contribution to understanding these carceral realities of the globalized present, seeks to explore how the carceral has become so central in our lives, how it manifests in different geographical locations, and what the likely consequences are of living in such a carceral world. The book delves into carceral practices, experiences, and imaginaries that extend far beyond traditional spaces of confinement, shedding light on the lasting effects of colonial carceral heritage, the influence of prison systems on city management, and the entrapping nature of digital infrastructures. It also examines new urbanized forms of migrant detention, the relationship between prisons and homelessness, the use of carceral metaphors in everyday life, and the carceral implications of the uneven distribution of climate risk across the globe. Carceral Worlds brings together scholars from around the world and diverse disciplines in the social sciences and humanities, offering a fresh and comprehensive approach to the carceral as a central vector in modern life.
