The Prison and the Factory, a classic work on radical criminology, has been updated with two new essays and a foreword by Professor Jonathan Simon (UC Berkeley). The authors, Melossi and Pavarini, reflect on the origins, development, and fortune of the book in relation to the debates surrounding mass incarceration that have taken place since its publication 40 years ago. The reputation of the original work has long been established worldwide, and this updated version will be of special interest to scholars of the criminal justice system, penology, and Marxist theory. The book examines the links between the development of capitalist political economy and changing forms of social control. Melossi and Pavarini analyze the connection between the creation of penal institutions and regimes in Europe and the USA and the problems generated by the emergence of capitalist social relations. They provide a thorough neo-Marxist view of emergent capitalism and the penal mechanisms constructed to deal with the problem of labor. Contemporary to but independent from the work of Michel Foucault, Melossi and Pavarini combine research on the development of penal philosophies and institutions with a rigorous account of changing forms of capital accumulation, focusing on the use and problem of labor under capitalist relations.
