Extreme Punishment: Comparative Studies in Detention, Incarceration and Solitary Confinement - Palgrave Studies in Prisons and Penology
Keramet Reiter
This ground-breaking collection examines the erosion of the legal boundaries traditionally dividing civil detention from criminal punishment. The contributors empirically demonstrate how the mentally ill, non-citizen immigrants, and enemy combatants are treated like criminals in Canada, the United Kingdom and the United States.
