Through extensive and in-depth interviews with Indigenous and non-Indigenous women, as well as conversations with prison practitioners – psychologists, counselors, and Aboriginal Liaison Officers – the book uncovers the intricate web of social exclusion that these women face both before and during their incarceration.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDrawing upon a theoretical framework of social exclusion, the book meticulously charts the complex interplay between cognitively disabled women and the Criminal Justice System, revealing how this connection perpetuates and exacerbates a state of social exclusion both prior to and within the prison environment. Moreover, the book offers a valuable practical template for other researchers to employ when exploring the interconnected domains of the Criminal Justice System, incarceration, women offenders, cognitive disability, and social exclusion. By centering the voices of incarcerated women with cognitive disabilities, the book pioneers a fresh and innovative approach to understanding social exclusion, moving beyond the mere recounting of tragic narratives to examine the societal and political conditions that allow disadvantage, inequality, and injustice to thrive.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis book holds immense appeal to academics and students engaged in the fields of criminology, criminal justice, disability studies, women's and gender studies, and penology. By delving into theoretical concepts in a practical and applied manner, it serves as a valuable resource for those involved in the health sector, community services, disability support agencies, disability advocates, prisoner advocacy, women's studies and women's advocacy, as well as human rights activism.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 453g\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 234 x 156 (mm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9781032125763\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Julie-AnneToohey","offers":[{"title":"Paperback \/ softback","offer_id":44646794068218,"sku":"9781032125763","price":42.83,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/1697219692824_book.jpg?v=1697574763","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/the-social-exclusion-of-incarcerated-women-with-cognitive-disabilities-shut-out-shut-in-9781032125763","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
