Given the intricate operational challenges posed by education, particularly higher education, within prison-based teaching and learning environments, such exploration becomes imperative. These challenges are compounded by cultural and ideological barriers, such as the criticism of allocating resources to and investing in prisoner education, particularly when it may appear financially prohibitive for individuals outside of prison. Moreover, prison education faces unique challenges due to its inherent connection to practical and moral-political dilemmas, particularly in the context of global late capitalism, advanced technology, and mass incarceration or securitization.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWithin the pages of this book, readers will find a wealth of insights and thought-provoking issues covering a diverse range of topics, including ethics, religion, sociology, justice, identity, and political and moral philosophy. The contributors to this collection have delved into the complexities of education within prisons, exploring the ethical implications of educating incarcerated individuals, the role of religion in shaping educational experiences, the social dynamics of prison education, the quest for justice in educational policies, the construction of identity through education, and the philosophical underpinnings of political and moral philosophy in the context of prison education.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBy engaging with the ideas presented in this collection, readers will gain a deeper understanding of the complex dynamics and challenges associated with education within prisons. It serves as a valuable resource for scholars, policymakers, educators, and anyone interested in exploring the ethical, social, and philosophical dimensions of this critical field.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 508g\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 210 x 148 (mm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9783030868291\u003cbr\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eEdition number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1st ed. 2022\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Shulph Ink","offers":[{"title":"Hardback","offer_id":44103460454650,"sku":"9783030868291","price":74.96,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/1665748061192_book.jpg?v=1665818893","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/histories-and-philosophies-of-carceral-education-aims-contradictions-promises-and-problems-9783030868291","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
