Book Description
A large proportion—and in many jurisdictions the majority—of incarcerated women are mothers. Popular attention is often paid to challenges faced by children of incarcerated mothers while incarcerated women themselves often do not “count” as mothers in mainstream discourse. This is the first anthology on incarcerated mothers’ experiences that is primarily based on and reflects the Canadian context. It is also trans- national in scope as it covers related issues from other countries around the world. These essays examine connections between mothering and incarceration, from analysis of the justice system and policies, criminalization of motherhood, to understanding experiences of mothers in prisons as presented in their own voices. They highlight structures and processes which shape and ascribe incarcerated woman’s identity as a mother, juxtaposing it with scripted and imposed mainstream norms of a “good” or “real” mother. Moreover, these essays identify and track emergence of mothers’ resistance and agency within and in spite of the confines of their circumstances.

Book Description
La rupture des relations parents-enfants, consécutive à l'incarcération du père ou de la mère, peut avoir de graves conséquences sur le développement affectif, social et intellectuel de l'enfant. Par ailleurs elle remet en question la parentalité qui ne peut s'exercer au quotidien. Or il apparaît que le maintien des liens familiaux, d'une part aide l'enfant éloigné de son père (ou de sa mère) incarcéré(e) à grandir, et d'autre part contribue à la réinsertion des personnes détenues. Cette cause justifie et motive, depuis 1996, l'action des Relais enfants-parents, associations orientées vers l'action sociale en prison. Cet ouvrage rend compte de l'engagement du relais entants-parents Midi-Pyrénées. En effet, sept ans après sa création, celui-ci coordonne et soutient différentes modalités d'intervention psychosocio-éducative : accompagnement de l'enfant au parloir, accompagnement de jeunes enfants vivant en prison avec leur mère chez des assistantes maternelles à l'extérieur, entretiens individuels avec les détenus, ateliers d'écriture " je communique avec mon enfant ", espace de parole comme soutien à la maternalité, action de médiation auprès des familles. L'analyse des pratiques des auteurs constitue l'ossature de ce livre mais, chemin faisant, on y trouvera l'occasion de réfléchir sur le bien-fondé de ce type d'engagement, sur le fonctionnement d'une organisation implantée à l'intérieur et à la périphérie du milieu carcéral, voire sur les principes et la mise en application de la politique pénitentiaire de notre pays.

Book Description
Quelle forme d'aide pouvons-nous apporter à l'enfant éloigné de son père (ou de sa mère) incarcéré(e) ? De façon plus générale, que pouvons-nous faire pour contribuer au maintien des relations familiale du détenu ? Cet ouvrage montre comment les relais enfants-parents peuvent soutenir différentes modalités d'intervention psychosocio-éducative : accompagnement de l'enfant au parloir, accompagnement de jeunes enfants vivant en prison avec leur mère chez des assistantes maternelles à l'extérieur, entretiens individuels avec les détenus, ateliers d'écriture je communique avec mon enfant , espace de parole, action de médiation auprès des familles... L'analyse des pratiques des auteurs donne l'occasion de réfléchir au bien-fondé de ce type d'engagement, au fonctionnement d'une organisation implantée à l'intérieur et à la périphérie du milieu carcéral, voire aux principes et à la mise en application de la politique pénitentiaire de notre pays.

Book Description
By quadrupling the number of people behind bars in two decades, the United States has become the world leader in incarceration. Much has been written on the men who make up the vast majority of the nation’s two million inmates. But what of the women they leave behind? Doing Time Together vividly details the ways that prisons shape and infiltrate the lives of women with husbands, fiancés, and boyfriends on the inside. Megan Comfort spent years getting to know women visiting men at San Quentin State Prison, observing how their romantic relationships drew them into contact with the penitentiary. Tangling with the prison’s intrusive scrutiny and rigid rules turns these women into “quasi-inmates,” eroding the boundary between home and prison and altering their sense of intimacy, love, and justice. Yet Comfort also finds that with social welfare weakened, prisons are the most powerful public institutions available to women struggling to overcome untreated social ills and sustain relationships with marginalized men. As a result, they express great ambivalence about the prison and the control it exerts over their daily lives. An illuminating analysis of women caught in the shadow of America’s massive prison system, Comfort’s book will be essential for anyone concerned with the consequences of our punitive culture.

Book Description
Out in the darkness of space, something is targeting the Greatships. With their vast cargo holds and a crew that could fill a city, the Greatships are the lifeblood of human occupied space, transporting an unimaginable volume - and value - of goods from City, the greatest human orbital, all the way to Tradepoint at the other, to trade for xenoglas with an unknowable alien species. It has always been Marca Nbaro's dream to achieve the near-impossible: escape her upbringing and venture into space. All it took, to make her way onto the crew of the Greatship Athens was thousands of hours in simulators, dedication, and pawning or selling every scrap of her old life in order to forge a new one. But though she's made her way onboard with faked papers, leaving her old life - and scandals - behind isn't so easy. She may have just combined all the dangers of her former life, with all the perils of the new . . .
