Full textAbstract:
Background Many women in prison are mothers and an increasing number are pregnant. These women face the harsh reality of potentially being separated from their babies or children, which can have detrimental effects on both the mother and the child. Aims To review the literature surrounding the impact of mothers and children staying together in a prison environment. Method The review focused on papers from the past 9 years and included mothers whose children resided with them in prison, and mothers who had been separated from their babies after giving birth in prison. Three articles were identified: two qualitative studies based on interviews with imprisoned mothers, and one quantitative study into re-offending rates of women who had been released from a prison nursery programme. Findings Keeping their babies and mother together in a prison environment resulted in a positive outcome, particularly for the mothers. However, when thinking about the welfare of the child, there need to be sufficient opportunities to allow for their physical, social and emotional development. The common themes that emerged during this literature review were: low re-offending rates, motherhood producing motivation for change, and the effect of staying together on maternal and child wellbeing. Conclusions This review highlighted the need for further studies, especially focusing on prisons in the UK.

Full textAbstract:
The article describes leave related to childbirth and child raising available to the father of the child who is in a public service relationship with the Polish Prison Service. The child’s father has autonomous rights, that is, ones that are only vested in him (paternity leave), and subsidiary rights, which are vested in him but only in a situation where the child's mother does not exercise them (maternity leave), and equivalent rights, that is, those which he can exercise on equal terms with the child's mother (leave on the terms of maternity leave, parental leave, childcare leave). Cases in which a child's parents work in different employment settings are analysed. In this connection, the author discusses regulations concerning cases of parental leave in situations where the mother and father of a child have the status of PS officers, where the father of a child is a PS officer and the child's mother is employed or covered by social insurance in case of sickness and maternity, specified in the Act of 13 October 1998 on the social insurance system, under a title other than an employment relationship, for example when she is self-employed, and finally cases where a child's mother is not covered by sickness insurance at all.

RESUMOO presente artigo tem por objetivo apresentar algumas intersecções construídas sobre o sentido da maternidade no cárcere, perfazendo o quadro acerca das condições femininas com base do cotidiano investigado. De abordagem qualitativa, esta pesquisa empírica articula algumas categorias analíticas extraídas da investigação a partir da técnica de Análise do Conteúdo (BARDIN, 2011). Os resultados apresentados neste estudo indicam que o estabelecimento prisional estudado nega e/ou exclui a condição de “ser mãe/mulher” no cárcere por meio de processos que a despersonalizam e que subalternizam seus direitos reprodutivos. Conclui-se também que a maternidade é exercida a partir de meras regras de punição e/ou administração do espaço carcerário, sendo, mãe e criança, um mesmo corpo abjeto e objetificado neste espaço. Ainda, a pesquisa aponta que instrumentos importantes para a vivência dos direitos reprodutivos de mulheres mães presas, neste caso a Lei nº 11.942/2009, não tem alcançado repercussão no sistema carcerário, e, assim, garantias relacionadas à permanência do(a) filho(a) com a mãe, sobre o aleitamento, a preparação e a separação entre mães e bebês e outros aspectos base são instrumentalizados a partir do subjetivismo dos(as) agentes estatais. PALAVRAS-CHAVE: Direitos reprodutivos; Cárcere; Maternidade; Violações. ABSTRACTThus, this article aims to present some built intersections on sense of motherhood in prison, making the picture about women's conditions on the basis of the investigated daily. Qualitative approach, this study articulates some extracted analytical categories of research from the content analysis technique (Bardin, 2011). The results presented in this study indicate that the studied prison deny and / or preclude the condition of “being a mother/woman” in prison through processes that depersonalize and exclude their reproductive rights. It also concludes that motherhood is exercised from mere rules of punishment and/or administration of the prison space, being, mother and child, the same body abject and objectified in this space. Still, the research shows that important instruments for the life of the reproductive rights of women imprisoned mothers, in this case the Law nº. 11.942 / 2009, has not reached repercussion in the prison system, and thus guarantees related to the permanence of (a) child (a) with the mother on breastfeeding, preparation and separation of mothers and babies and other basic aspects are instrumentalized from the subjectivism of (the) state actors. KEYWORDS: Reproductive rights; Prison; Maternity; Violations.

Full textAbstract:
Incarcerated mothers face challenges to mothering in prison, including restricted opportunities to perform parenting tasks, ambiguous loss, and a compromised parenting identity. This study uses interviews with incarcerated mothers in the United States to explore how such women negotiate motherhood. All of the women grappled with how to care for their children from prison and projected futures that they hoped to experience as mothers. They varied in their active involvement as decision makers and in their intimacy with their children, but all were seen as renegotiating narrative identities. The study underscores the fact that social actors can be creative with self-narrative when they can be creative in few other ways.

Full textAbstract:
The paper presents the results of an empirical study of prison deprivations suffered by women, conducted at the Female Department of Correctional Facility in Pozarevac within the scope of a wider study of women's prison system. It was supposed that female prisoners in this penal institution face similar prison experience and suffer the same or similar deprivations as women in other penal institutions do. The research sample included female prisoners sentenced to more than one year, staying in prison for more than a year (54 female prisoners, i.e. more than 50% prisoners sentenced to long prison terms). Prisoners were interviewed employing a questionnaire measuring different types of deprivations using 26 indicators. Using the method of factor analysis - which was here used for the first time to study prison deprivations - six factors of women's prison deprivations were extracted: deprivation of maternity; deprivation of autonomy; deprivation of individuality; deprivation of human kindness and empathy; deprivation of a key role - a woman's role, and deprivation of friendship relations. The outcomes of this research, together with the findings of other researchers, affirm the assumption that these types of deprivations are realistic and dominant types of women's prison deprivations.

Full textAbstract:
This study sought to examine what gaps existed in practice through the perspectives of correctional social workers in terms of helping incarcerated mother–infant dyads bond. Additionally, it examined whether a prison nursery was viewed as a possible option within a smaller correctional facility. Theories used to guide this study included attachment theory and separation-individuation theory, which align with the research questions that sought to explore gaps in services, supports that could be established, and program feasibility. Action research, using an anonymous online survey, resulted in N = 6 social work participants who worked as prison social workers in the northeast region of the United States. Data were coded using thematic analysis to explore latent and semantic themes. Conclusions drawn from the dataset include the restrictive nature of the prison setting being a barrier to promoting attachment. An increase in parenting classes, substance use programming, and mental health treatment was seen as beneficial for supporting attachment. Promoting childhood normalcy and having access to nature and play things was seen as integral to the development of a prison nursery program. A prison nursery was seen as feasible within a smaller correctional facility in the northeast. Potential positive social change resulting from these findings include development of specific interventions to maintain mother–infant bonding in small departments of correction.

Full textAbstract:
Women in prison assert that separation from their children is one of the most traumatic aspects of their imprisonment (Corston, 2007; Douglas, Plugge & Fitzpatrick, 2009; IAP, 2017). This thesis considers mother-child separations in English prisons from the perspectives of mothers and prison staff, alongside a critical examination of the use of attachment theory in prison policy and practice. Using a critical realist approach, this mixed-methods study integrates qualitatively analysed semi-structured interviews with a practitioner survey and document analyses. A focus on attachment theory enables a multi-perspective view of an overlooked group of prisoners and proposes relevant policy and practice applications. Study of policy and related literature reveals a consensus that separation from children for imprisoned mothers is traumatic. However, no detail is offered about how mothers should be supported. Interviews with six attachment experts and a survey of 30 family practitioners uncovered a range of critiques of current prison practice supposedly based on attachment theory, in particular the focus on a 'best age' of separation. Interviews with six previously imprisoned mothers highlighted the importance of the wider context, especially external childcare, with regards to their experience of separation. Open prisons were viewed as enabling access to services and the most positive relationships with staff. Interviews with 24 prison staff emphasised the challenges of working with separated mothers, specifically the emotional impact of this type of work, and the difficulties of working with social services. Focusing on the understanding and practice of attachment theory revealed its limitations and problematises its use in prison policy, including critiques of Mother Baby Units. It is proposed that future practice and research should be underpinned by partnership with social work in order to inform best practice, whilst a human rights-based approach with enforceable minimum standards would mitigate some of the harm caused by mother-child separation.

Full textAbstract:
This study was designed to determine the effectiveness of filial therapy with incarcerated mothers as a method of increasing empathic behaviors with their children, increasing attitudes of acceptance toward their children, and reducing stress related to parenting. Filial therapy, a method of training parents to respond and interact therapeutically with their children, focuses on enhancing the parent-child relationship. The sample population of 22 volunteer subjects was drawn from a pool of incarcerated mothers in the Denton County Jail who had children between three and ten years of age. The experimental group parents, consisting of 12 incarcerated mothers, received 2-hour filial therapy training sessions biweekly for five weeks and participated in biweekly 30-minute play sessions with one of their children. The control group parents, consisting of 10 incarcerated mothers, received no treatment during the five weeks. The three written self-report instruments completed for pretesting and posttesting purposes by both groups were The Porter Parental Acceptance Scale, The Parenting Stress Index, and The Filial Problem Checklist. The parents were also videotaped in play sessions with their child before and after training as a means of measuring change in empathic behavior. Analysis of Covariance revealed that incarcerated mothers in the experimental group had significant change in 9 of 13 hypotheses, including (a) a significant increase in their level of empathic interactions with their children, (b) a significant increase in their attitude of acceptance toward their children, and (c) a significant reduction in the number of reported problems with their children's behavior. This study supports filial therapy as an effective intervention for enhancing the parent-child relationship with incarcerated mothers and their children. Utilizing instruction and practical application of positive therapeutic methods, filial therapy training empowers parents by increasing their parenting knowledge and skills, and indirectly empowers children who experience the parent-child relationship with an increase in unconditional acceptance and positive regard.

Full textAbstract:
While research on sexual violence in India has considered victim perspectives and policy reforms, offender perspectives remain highly underrepresented in the literature. The aim of this research was to understand the underlying social mechanisms that support and maintain violence against women, and in its extreme form, rape in Indian society. For this purpose, attitudes towards women and perceptions of culpability were examined in a sample of convicted rapists and non-sex offenders from Delhi Prison (N=142). Convicted offenders filled out the short version of Attitudes Towards Women questionnaire (n=122) and also participated in-depth semi-structured interviews (n=20). Comparison of both groups of offenders did not reflect the popular belief that rapists have more traditional and conservative views towards women as no significant differences were found in the way gender was socialized. Home was the main gender socialization site and the mother was central to this process. At the same time, both groups of offenders differed with respect to their self-perceptions of offending. Rapists referred to themselves as "inmates" and non-sex offenders referred to themselves as "offenders". Non-sex offenders accepted responsibility for their actions but attempted to justify their intent whereas rapists denied responsibility and attributed blame to the victim. Rapists also used various identity-management mechanisms to reject the label of 'rapist'. Integration of offenders' gender and crime narratives led to the development of an empirical model linking traditional attitudes towards women and rapists' perceptions of culpability. As one of the first studies examining accounts of convicted rapists in India, this research has implications on policy, social reform and prison research along with contributing to the larger body of literature. The findings are discussed in light of their significance within the unique socio-cultural setup of India along with future recommendations.

Syftet med denna studie har varit att undersöka hur företrädare inom kriminalvården och socialtjänsten arbetar med barn som har en mamma på anstalt samt vad samverkan mellan myndigheterna har för funktion. Vi har valt att intervjua fyra professionella som arbetar inom kriminalvården och fyra professionella som arbetar inom socialtjänsten. Resultatet visar att myndigheternas olika lagstiftningar, utbildningar, kunskap om varandras verksamheter, uppdrag samt olika synsätt på barnperspektivet försvårar samverkan mellan myndigheterna.The purpose of this study is to examine social services and prison services works with children who have a mother in prison, and how collaboration between the two different authorities function. We chose to interview four professional working in prisons and four professionals in the social services. The thesis results show that there often is a collision between the correctional authority and social service that both have different perspectives when it comes to children whose mothers are in prison. There are several issues to this interaction. We concluded that because of the two different legal authorities, training, knowledge of each other's activities and assignments, there are shortcomings in cooperation between authorities. The professionals are aware of the shortcomings but nobody is doing anything about it.

This research deals with the thematic relative questions to, the arrest, violence, traffic and maternity involving jailed women of the Center of Ressocialização Júlia Maranhão. For the unfolding of this study the workmanships of Brazilian authors had been used who are references in this area: Julita Lemgruber (1983); Iara Ilgenfritz and Bárbara M. To sound (2002). Soon, in this research it was necessary to articulate some agreements until it was possible to identify that to the relations imprisoned/institution; arrest/violence; canine tooth/maternity - even so of extreme relevance - does not give account to represent the feminine penitentiary Júlia given Maranhão its complexity: a convivência place, but also, of conflicts, where practical coercitive there the gifts, are legitimated for the society in general. One of the hypotheses of the study consists of the affirmation of that the question of the violence is a present element since early in the trajectory of life of these women, becoming determinative for its insertion in the life of the crime. Searching to describe the experiences of these women concerning the maternity, mainly to those involved ones in the traffic crime, it was opted to the use of interviews, with focus in the life history. From the stories of 37 interviewed mothers one evidenced that the speech on the maternity is a social construction of sort. The manifestation of the love of these mothers for its children suffers the influence from its concrete experiences while children and the relation that had been able - or not - to construct with its children before the imprisonment. The results of the study indicate that the violence cycles, gifts in the trajectory of life of the imprisoned women exert influence in the formation of its identity, making to assume that it over all has a relation between the violent standard and the practical one of crime, of the traffic crime. The study it also points the existence of a correspondence does not enter the Express in the legal and normative instruments that guide the institucional actions and the reality lived deeply for the woman-mother-female prisoner, becoming necessary the formularization and implementation of specific public politics for such reality, as form to minimize the impact that the capture provokes in the life of these women. It is concluded that a series of changes in the prisional system becomes necessary, in order to guarantee the right to the mothers to exert its maternity, in view of, over all, that the proximity with the children is factor of mental health and stimulaton in the process of social reinserção.
Esta pesquisa trata das questões relativas às temáticas, prisão, violência, tráfico e maternidade envolvendo mulheres encarceradas do Centro de Ressocialização Júlia Maranhão. Para o desdobramento desse estudo foram utilizadas as obras de autoras brasileiras que são referências nessa área: Julita Lemgruber (1983); Iara Ilgenfritz e Bárbara M. Soares (2002). Logo, nessa pesquisa foi necessário articular vários entendimentos até que fosse possível identificar que as relações presa/instituição; prisão/violência; presa/maternidade embora de extrema relevância não dão conta de representar o presídio feminino Júlia Maranhão dado a sua complexidade: um lugar de convivência, mas também, de conflitos, onde as práticas coercitivas ali presentes, são legitimadas pela sociedade em geral. Uma das hipóteses do estudo consiste na afirmação de que a questão da violência é um elemento presente desde cedo na trajetória de vida dessas mulheres, tornando-se determinante para sua inserção na vida do crime. Buscando descrever as experiências dessas mulheres acerca da maternidade, principalmente àquelas envolvidas no crime de tráfico, optou-se pela utilização de entrevistas, com foco na história de vida. A partir dos relatos de 37 mães entrevistadas constatou-se que o discurso sobre a maternidade é uma construção social de gênero. A manifestação do amor dessas mães por seus filhos sofre a influência de suas experiências concretas enquanto filhas e da relação que puderam ou não construir com seus filhos antes do encarceramento. Os resultados do estudo indicam que os ciclos de violência, presentes na trajetória de vida das mulheres presas exercem influência na formação de sua identidade, fazendo supor que há uma relação entre o padrão violento e a prática da criminalidade, sobretudo do crime de tráfico. O estudo aponta também a existência de uma não correspondência entre o expresso nos instrumentos legais e normativos que orientam as ações institucionais e a realidade vivenciada pela mulher-mãe-presa, tornando-se necessária a formulação e implementação de políticas públicas específicas para tal realidade, como forma de minimizar o impacto que o aprisionamento provoca na vida dessas mulheres. Conclui-se que se faz necessário uma série de mudanças no sistema prisional, de modo a garantir o direito às mães de exercerem sua maternidade, tendo em vista, sobretudo, que a proximidade com os filhos é fator de saúde mental e estímulo no processo de reinserção social.

Det har visat sig att det bästa för barnet i många fall är att stanna hos sin moder trots fängelsevistelse, snarare än att separeras och placeras i fosterhem vilket tidigare varit den rådande uppfattningen. Mitt förslag är ett ställningstagande i en nu rådande het debatt.

Introduction: The number of children and adolescents with mothers in prison is increasing and has been demanding debates among researchers, public representatives, non-governmental organizations (NGOs) and society in general, with a view to planning actions to minimize the negative impacts of the prison system, on the health and psychological development of the child / adolescent. The overall objective: of the study was to construct a video technology material to present the experience of motherhood to women prisoners in a closed regime and, as a result, to promote the debate about the reality of the mother-child relationship in the prison context. Method: the research had an exploratory and transversal design with a qualitative approach. Fifteen women were arrested in a closed regime. There were 13 individual semi-structured interviews and 3 focus groups. Data collection took place in a regional mixed prison in the period between April and July 2017. The data were transcribed and submitted to the content analysis proposed by Bardin. For the production of the documentary, the images were collected during an action carried out by Projeto Inspira, in its 5th edition. This action occurred on November 10, 2017 with 12 distressed mothers of the Regional Prison of Santa Maria, four of them recorded testimonials for the documentary. They were encouraged to talk about their experience from the following question: What is the experience of being a parent of children in the childhood / adolescence phase and being stuck? In addition to the inmates participated in the documentary: a caregiver grandmother and professionals involved in the issue. After being videotaped, the content was edited through the process of visualization and decupagem. Results: the results of this research reveal that mothers' experiences are permeated by feelings of their children's homesickness, blame for being wrong, shame before them for the prison situation. The mothers of this study were aware of the damage caused by the crime and, consequently, their arrest in the children's lives. It was found that maternity in the prison system is also hampered by the precariousness of the interpersonal relationships established during the execution of the sentence. The final product: of this study is the production of a documentary titled: A hug without grids: real stories of women prisoners and their children. Endings considerations: mothers in prison are deprived and fragile, deprived of power, voice and self-esteem to exercise parenthood. It adds up the lack of coexistence and the mother-child bond is threatened. In this way, improvements in the prison environment are suggested that allow for the assiduity and the quality of the interaction during the visits and, with this, the maintenance and strengthening of the mother-child bond, considering the evidence of a scenario of double helplessness, in which mothers and children are deprived of coexistence and reciprocal affection.
Introdução: O número de crianças e adolescentes com mães presas é crescente e vem demandando debates entre pesquisadores, representantes públicos, organizações não governamentais (ONGs) e a sociedade em geral, com vistas ao planejamento de ações destinados a minimizar os impactos negativos do sistema prisional, na saúde e no desenvolvimento psicológico da criança/adolescente. O objetivo geral: do estudo foi construir um material tecnológico em vídeo sobre a vivência da maternidade para mulheres presas em regime fechado. Método: a pesquisa teve um delineamento exploratório e transversal com abordagem qualitativa. Participaram 15 mulheres presas em regime fechado. Foram realizadas 13 entrevistas semiestruturadas individuais e 3 grupos focais. A coleta de dados ocorreu em um presídio misto regional no período entre abril e julho de 2017. Os dados foram transcritos e submetidos à análise de conteúdo proposta por Bardin. Para a produção do documentário, as imagens foram coletadas durante uma ação realizada pelo Projeto Inspira, em sua 5ª edição. A referida ação ocorreu no dia 10 de novembro de 2017 com 12 mães apenadas do Presídio Regional de Santa Maria, 4 delas gravaram depoimentos para o documentário. Elas foram estimuladas a falar sobre sua experiência a partir da seguinte questão: Como é a experiência de ser mãe de filhos na fase da infância/adolescência e estar presa? Além das detentas, participaram do documentário: uma avó cuidadora e profissionais envolvidos na temática. Depois de gravado em vídeo, o conteúdo foi editado através do processo de visionagem e decupagem. Resultados: os resultados desta pesquisa revelam que as vivências das mães são permeadas por sentimentos de saudades dos filhos, culpa por terem errado, vergonha diante deles pela situação prisional. As mães deste estudo mostraram ter consciência sobre os danos causados pelo crime e, consequentemente, pela prisão delas na vida dos filhos. Constatou-se que a maternidade no sistema prisional é dificultada, também, pela precariedade das relações interpessoais estabelecidas durante o cumprimento da pena. O produto final: deste estudo foi a produção de um documentário intitulado: Um abraço sem grades: histórias reais de mulheres presas e seus filhos. Considerações finais: as mães presas encontram-se carentes e fragilizadas, desprovidas de poder, voz e autoestima para exercer a parentalidade. Soma-se a falta de convivência e o vínculo mãe-filho(a) fica ameaçado. Assim sugere-se melhorias no ambiente prisional que propicie a assiduidade e a qualidade da interação durante as visitas e, com isso, a manutenção e o fortalecimento do vínculo mãe-filhos, considerando a evidência de um cenário de duplo desamparo, no qual mães e filhos estão privados de convivência e afeto recíproco.

Universidade do Estado do Rio de JaneiroA partir de um estudo etnográfico, pretendemos investigar as representações sobre a gravidez e a maternidade em mulheres que são mães durante o cumprimento da pena na Penitenciária Talavera Bruce, no Rio de Janeiro. Estas mães, que convivem com seus filhos durante seis meses, têm os vínculos interrompidos após o período de amamentação. Todavia, os presídios não são designados para propiciar o vínculo familiar, pois, se pensarmos as prisões como instituições cujas práticas ocorrem à margem da lei e, mais do que isso, que geram atributos estigmatizantes aos sentenciados, é evidente que a presença dessas crianças produz um conflito entre o direito das mesmas ao convívio familiar e as funções punitivas das prisões.
Starting from an ethnographic study, we intend to investigate the maternity of women who become mothers during their confinement to serve their prison sentences in Talavera Bruce Penitentiary in Rio de Janeiro. These mothers, who live together with their children for only six months, have their intimate and affective links broken up after the breast-feeding period. Nevertheless penitentiaries arent designated to provide familiar vinculum, as, if we think prisons like an institution where lawless practices happen, and what is more, if these prisons are places where condemned people are looked at with stigmatizing attributes, its clear that the presence of these children brings about a conflict between their right to familiar relationship and the prison punitive functions.

A partir dos anos 1990, cresce o número de mulheres encarceradas no mundo todo, especialmente em idade reprodutiva. Isso remete-nos a um olhar mais atento sobre direitos sexuais e reprodutivos, com destaque à maternidade e à maternagem nesse período de privação de liberdade. Tendo como cenário o Conjunto Penal feminino – Complexo Penitenciário Lemos Brito, Salvador – BA, o presente trabalho tem como objetivo a problematização das possibilidades e obstáculos existentes na constituição da maternagem no ambiente prisional e, em como este ambiente pode influenciar no desenvolvimento de bebês. O recorte temporal se dá no Tempo Presente, levando-se em consideração os anos de 2016 e 2017 e a condição de mulheres adultas presas em cumprimento de pena. Recorre-se ao diálogo entre autores das áreas da Psicanálise, Filosofia, Sociologia e Direito, tais como Àries, Badinter, Freud, Foucault, Salla e Winnicott, para possibilitar a compreensão acerca da lógica interna própria do sistema carcerário, assim como a ineficiência do Estado em exercer o controle social sobre o cotidiano prisional, as violações de Direitos Humanos, as violências sobrepostas e as faces da maternagem e criação de vínculos neste ambiente. Considera-se como pressuposto que a maternagem não se restringe a um evento biológico, onde o/a bebê precisa de mais que apenas um seio para se desenvolver e constituir-se como unidade. Ao ser ainda inserida uma situação de contexto em ambiente prisional, a maternagem pode integrar ações com/sem potencial socializador e de projeto de vida. Toma-se, nesse sentido, os referenciais da Psicanálise através das teorias de Freud e Winnicott. Através de um estudo comparativo de natureza epistêmica, a ideia central consiste em manejar ferramentas para compreensão do lugar/função desempenhado pela família na constituição do sujeito. Como resultados indicam-se urgências em entrelaçar agendas, políticas públicas e proteção integral à infância e às mulheres – somente privadas de liberdade – através de direitos e integralidade da promoção social, de acesso à cidadania e aos vínculos materno-infantis.
Since the 1990s, the number of women incarcerated worldwide has increased, especially at reproductive age. This brings us to a closer look at sexual and reproductive rights, with emphasis on maternity and mothering in this period of deprivation of liberty. Based on the scenario of the Female criminal set of the complex penitentiary Lemos Brito in Salvador - BA. The purpose of this work is to analyze the possibilities and obstacles that exist in childcare in the prison environment and how this environment can influence the development of babies. The temporal cut occurs in the present time, taking into account the years 2016 and 2017 and the condition of prisoners in fulfillment of sentence. It is used the dialogue between authors of Psychoanalysis, Philosophy, Sociology and Law, such as Aries, Badinter, Freud, Foucault, Salla and Winnicott, in order to understand the internal logic of the prison system, as well as the inefficiency of the State in exercising social control over prison daily life, violations of human rights, overlapping violences and mothering’ faces and creating links in this environment. It is assumed that maternity is not restricted to a biological event, where the baby needs are more than just one breast to develop and to constitute itself as a unit. Moreover, we must also integrate a context situation in the prison environment, the mothering can/ can not integrate actions with socializing potential and life project. In this sense, the referents of Psychoanalysis are taken through the theories of Freud and Winnicott. Through a comparative study of epistemic nature, the central idea is to manage tools for understanding the place / function played by the family in the constitution of the subject. As a result, there is an urgent need to interweave public agendas, policies and comprehensive protection of children and women - only deprived of their freedom - throughout rights and integral social promotion, access to citizenship and protecting maternal and child bonds.

Full textAbstract:
This chapter offers insights on how caregiving kin can maintain relationships during maternal imprisonment. These insights are especially pertinent in light of the current political and policy climate, which has advocated support for prisoners' family ties. Yet, contact with a person in prison is restricted and mediated by criminal justice policies and processes. The chapter then focuses on the caregivers' experiences of navigating the criminal justice system (CJS) as they followed the mother through court and into prison. There are four main sections: caregivers' experiences of court processes; caregivers' opportunities for re-establishing contact with the mother on the telephone and face to face in the first days and weeks of her sentence; caregivers' perceptions of maintaining contact with the mother; and caregivers' understandings and perceptions of Mother and Baby Units (MBUs) when a child in their family was housed in prison or awaiting confirmation of a place.

Full textAbstract:
This chapter provides an overview of maternal imprisonment. The prison population in England and Wales is twice as large as it was in 1993. On any one day, just under 4,000 women are detained in prisons serving England and Wales; meanwhile, 8,000 women entered prison in 2017. When applying a family-centred lens to analyse these trends, a critical concern is the significant repercussions that this brings to the whole family because as the female prisoner population grows, so does the number of children separated from their mothers requiring replacement caregivers. However, being in prison does not remove a mother's willingness to continue mothering or automatically strip her of her legal parental responsibility in England and Wales. Instead, it is by virtue of the detainment that being imprisoned significantly alters, if not compromises, many of the roles and practices that a mother had previously undertaken. Most notably, this includes the daily care of children. The chapter then looks at the reallocation of caregiving following maternal imprisonment.

Chapter 1 covers Pete O’Neal’s life from childhood to young adulthood. Pete describes his family life—his sometimes violent father, his nurturing mother, and his grandmother. He describes his first arrest at age eleven and the racist language and physical intimidation of the policeman who interrogated him. He explains how the night life on Kansas City’s 12th Street both frightened and attracted him because of the admiration paid to its successful hustlers. Pete fails to socially adjust to racially integrated high school. After more scrapes with the law, he joins the Navy to avoid detention, only to be dishonorably discharged after fighting with fellow seamen and violating orders. He ends up in Soledad Prison where he applies himself to the education program it offers and achieves a sense of accomplishment by winning the Toastmaster International writing and speaking competition.

This chapter presents some excerpts from Urke Nachalnik's Życiorys Własny przestępcy (The Autobiography of a Criminal), which was published in 1933. Nachalnik begins his autobiography by describing his childhood and the circumstances that brought about his imprisonment. He recounts his education in a traditional kheyder. After completing kheyder, Nachalnik is sent to the yeshiva in Łomża. While there, he receives news about the death of his mother but is urged not to return home. Nachalnik struggles to support himself and finds board at the house of a prostitute with whom he has a relationship. As a result, he neglects his studies; he returns home for the following Passover. Later, Nachalnik spends several weeks in prison and is finally bailed out by his father. He returns to his town, where his father keeps humiliating him by telling everybody about his thievery. His father then sends him to work for his uncle as an apprentice in his bakery.

This chapter considers the writings of Ernesto Rossi, who recognized the absolute authority of moral conscience and posited it as the foundation of his religious conception of life. Sentenced to twenty years in prison for his participation in conspiratorial activity, he wrote to his mother, Elide Rossi, from the penitentiary in Piacenza, on January 20, 1933, that he was happy she no longer had any tie with the Catholic religion. For Rossi, Catholicism was at most an inferior conception of life compared to philosophical knowledge. Rossi prefered a soft religion—soft and yet capable of guiding one's action—to a revealed or bad religion. The chapter then turns to the writings of Massimo Mila, who was imprisoned in 1935 because he belonged to the Justice and Liberty movement. He believed not in the Christian religion but rather in a profound secular religion, based on the supreme value of the intrinsic intention of the one who acts and the conviction that one's faith is solely the “purity of the moral intention.”

Full textAbstract:
Influenced by critical carceral studies and abolition feminism, this non-empirical work identifies a political, social and economic carceral system that is fueled by existing racist, sexist, classist, homophobic, ableist and xenophobic ideologies, which both minimize resources for Latinx/a women and girls and increases the level of state violence perpetrated against them. The consequences of dispossession, subjugation and stigmatization have impacted Latina/x women's access to livable waged jobs, healthcare, safe and healthy food and water, adequate living conditions, quality education, and acceptance in American society. This violence is justified and considered necessary by constructing Latina/x women and girls as unworthy of state protection and state resource and as threats to the economy, culture and politics of the United States. Latina/x women, like other women of color, are not afforded the protections extended to white women by the state. Many Americans do not see them as the “good victim”, but often they are the “bad woman”, “bad mother”, “sexual deviant”, exploited laborer, culturally defiant, and increasingly they are “illegal”, “criminal” and “terrorist”. This results in Latinx/a women and girls being more likely to be imprisoned than white women and are one of the fastest growing prison populations in the United States.

"really what was at issue, so much as the means by which the inevitable outcome would be accomplished, and it is precisely those means which are problematized by the riddle structure. As usual, the answer is provided retrospectively and within the dramatic frame, but in this case the solution involves the introduc tion of new ‘facts’ of which the reader has hitherto been quite unaware. That night, in their prison cell, Theagenes and Charikleia talk over the day’s remarkable events. Charikleia suddenly remem bers a dream vision of her now dead mentor Kalasiris that had visited her the previous night and delivered this prophecy: If you wear pantarbe fear-all, fear not the power of flame Miracles may come to pass; for Fate ’tis easy game. (8.11.2) The solution to the riddle is itself a riddle, which Charikleia elucidates for her sceptical beloved: thinking she was about to die, she had secreted about herself the recognition tokens left her by her mother, including a ring set with the jewel called pantarbe and engraved with mystic characters. This, she surmises, protected her from the fire (8.11.7-8). Heliodoros’ manipulation of his narrative is obvious. Any ‘honest’ writer would have narrated this self-evidently important dream in its proper chronological place. The postponement is half heartedly explained within the dramatic frame by the suggestion that Charikleia simply forgot about it, but this is only for form’s sake.8 Heliodoros is deliberately withholding information, to induce puzzlement and speculation, to encourage the reader to take, in Umberto Eco’s notorious phrase, ‘inferential walks’. In comparison with the other riddles we have discussed, this one may seem adversarial rather than collaborative. Rather than slowly releasing material which will guide the reader safely to the correct solution, Heliodoros’ aim appears to be to keep us in the dark until such time as it suits him to tell us something we could not have otherwise known. But, although the author is playing more roughly here, he is still observing the rules: the clues are there, though probably their significance is realized only in retrospect. As Charikleia goes to face trial, intending to denounce herself and find release from the torment of her existence, Helio doros duly records that she wore her recognition tokens ‘as a kind of burial shroud, fastened around her waist beneath her clothes’ (8.9.8). And this reference to the tokens takes us back, across half." In Greek Literature in the Roman Period and in Late Antiquity, 324. Routledge, 2014. http://dx.doi.org/10.4324/9780203616895-39.
