Publisher: Springer International Publishing AG


This book delves into the lives of female criminals and the harsh realities of prison life in the Karachi Women's Prison in Pakistan, providing a case study of the challenges faced by these women during the COVID-19 pandemic. With increased crime and poverty due to the pandemic, the book explores the worsening conditions for women inmates, focusing on psychological trauma, access to resources, economic factors, and the struggle against cultural and criminal justice forces that contribute to the unstable state of women's prisons. The book includes case studies of women prisoners, addressing a gap in literature about female inmates in South Asia and Pakistan. It is ideal for researchers in feminist criminology, women's studies, prison psychology, and law enforcement agencies.
