Prison governmentality is a complex and multifaceted phenomenon that encompasses the various ways in which power is exercised and reproduced within prison environments. This book explores prison governmentality through the analysis of letters written by prisoners, offering a unique perspective on the opportunities and difficulties of resisting in a place of power.
In recent years, there has been a significant individualization of the prison population, accompanied by a gradual erosion of solidarity. The condition of prisoners is influenced by renewed governmental logic that has become more effective for management and even reproduced by the prisoners themselves. Italian prison governmentality has been presented in a range of discursive and material forms, from its softest to its harshest, as part of a comprehensive repertoire.
Through the narratives of prison letters, this book showcases the sophistication of these carceral logics from the perspective of prisoners engaged in the struggle. By engaging with theories of carceral geography and critical criminology, the book focuses on space and time as the dimensions from which to observe power relations and governmentality.
Narratives on Prison Governmentality will be of great interest to students and scholars of Penology, Narrative Criminology, Carceral Geography, and Critical Criminology. It provides valuable insights into the complex dynamics of power and resistance within prison environments and offers a critical examination of the ways in which governmentality is constructed and reproduced.
