The Barlinnie Special Unit : Art, Punishment and Innovation
Fifty years ago, a small unit in HM Prison Barlinnie, Glasgow, became a radical experiment whose approach polarised opinion.It encouraged shared decision-making between prisoners and staff, allowed greater access to families and enabled prisoners to explore creative activities.Through the support of visiting artists, and the voices of the prisoners themselves, notably the sculptor Jimmy Boyle (author of A Sense of Freedom), its impact challenged prevailing, disciplinarian prison culture. Arts of various kinds, plus respectful and challenging dialogue, released dormant abilities and strengths in hitherto recalcitrant, formerly violent prisoners.Always controversial, the legacy of the Barlinnie Special Unit challenges overly punitive ideas around crime to this day. The first edited collection on the Barlinnie Special Unit's almost 22-year history with contributions by those who were there at the time, or helped preserve its legacy.They include artist filmmaker Bill Beech, Scotland's first art therapist Joyce Laing, leading Scottish impresario Richard Demarco, Sara Trevelyan, ex-wife of Jimmy Boyle (who also contributes), Rupert Wolfe Murray, son of Boyle's publisher, Professor Mike Nellis of Strathclyde University, Claire Coia, a curator at Glasgow's Open Museum, Andrew Coyle, founding Director of the International Centre for Prison Studies and journalist, and former Scottish MP Brian Wilson.

State Punishment
Nicola Lacey presents a new approach to the question of the moral justification of punishment by the State.She focuses on the theory of punishments in context of other political questions, such as the nature of political obligation and the function and scope of criminal law.Arguing that no convincing set of justifying reasons has so far been produced, she puts forward a theory of punishments which places the values of the community at its centre.

Questioning Punishment
This book questions punishment as concept, social phenomenon and contemporary practice.It unpacks punishment’s nature and the assumptions that underpin it, examines its targets, objectives and implications, locates punishment and punitivity within their social contexts, and aims to unsettle the idea that there is something common-sensical, necessary and unavoidable about punitive justice. Questioning Punishment develops its argument through an innovative structure organised around five central questions: what punishment is; who punishment’s targets and subjects are; how punishment is perpetuated and experienced; when and where punishment unfolds and why we punish.It ends by considering the implications of this enquiry to understandings of punishment and broader pursuits of justice. This book is essential reading for all those engaged with the sociology of punishment and prisons, criminal justice and theoretical criminology.
