The book brings together some 14 scholars to contribute their respective chapters, each of the authors drawn from various parts of the world, thus ensuring a global perspective. The chapters in this volume address specific aspects of punishment, prisons, and incarceration based on the author's unique specialty and setting. The focus is explicitly comparative, analyzing punishment in different national and regional settings, and thus seeks to offer a global orientation. Both thematically and regionally diverse within the province of social and behavioral studies devoted to the study of punishment and incarceration, the chapters in this volume are also diverse in terms of theoretical approach and methodological orientation.ReviewVolume 19 in the Sociology of Crime, Law and Deviance series, this book takes a close look at global perspectives on punishment, with special attention paid to incarceration and prison conditions.

Other countries that are examined are Italy, England, Canada, the United States, South Africa, Japan, and Hong Kong. The authors of each chapter come from different parts of the world which helps to ensure a unique perspective and a comprehensive look at different approaches to punishment and incarceration.
