Abstract:
AbstractThe principles of normalisation and openness are cornerstones of modern prison philosophy. Normalisation involves making prison life as similar as possible to normal outside life and openness counteracts the negative effects of the total institution (Rentzmann, 1996). Both normalisation and openness imply that it should be the norm to place a person in an open prison. He or she should only be placed in a closed prison if there is a concrete, real risk of escape or if the prisoner is considered dangerous. The question is: does the Danish prison system in the era of the millennium still pay tribute to these two cornerstones when it comes to prisoner placement and furloughs? Since sentence length and disciplinary offences can determine both prisoner placement and prison furloughs, the article also explores developments in determinate sentencing and disciplinary punishment. Based on statistics and legislation, the analysis reveals that the severity of penalties increased during the period 2002-2019, e.g., average sentence length increased, more prisoners were placed in closed prisons, fewer prison furloughs were permitted, and more prisoners were exposed to disciplinary punishment. These developments can be explained by laws and rules implemented to deal with gang-related crime andgang-connected prisoners, who make up about 10 percent of the total prison population. While these strict laws and rules are designed to discipline the few, they have influenced the many and undermined the basic principles of normalisation and openness in Danish prisons.

Abstract:
During the Covid-19 pandemic, most of the rights of prisoners were clearly limited. These restrictions temporarily affected, among others, visits, out-of-prison employment, prison furloughs and access to religious services. The introduced restrictions significantly increased dissatisfaction among prisoners, which manifested in prison riots in Poland (e.g. in Chełm) and abroad. It should be noted, however, that the full exercise of all the rights and freedoms of prisoners in the conditions of pandemic is not possible, even if compliance with the WHO guidelines set out in the document of 15 March 2020 is ensured. These guidance has been followed rightfully in practice by most Polish prisons and pre-trial detention centres and there have been no reports of serious coronavirus disease outbreaks.

Abstract:
Abstract As part of the criminal justice reform to reduce prison population, the State of Louisiana undertook an initiative to explore a medical treatment furlough project. The plan was to transition long-term inmates from the prison to long-term care (LTC)). Angola, the largest maximum security prison in the U.S, had over 1000 prisoners 60 years or older. Eighty percent of the prison population is serving a life sentence. Prisoners with significant health and mobility issues were to be considered to be released to off-site facilities with parole supervision. We present lessons learned from exploring all aspects of a possible partnership between a Louisiana long-term care company and the correction department including: conducting site visits at Angola and the long-term care facility; gathering best practice data; exploring a referral process and acuity classification tool; exploring the role of the parole officer; and examining the prison population against the regulations for long-term care facilities from the perspective of the prisoners and current residents. Additional considerations were the impact on the local community and on-going support for services provided, along with staffing, staff training, and security and safety of the facility. After multiple discussions with representative from the Louisiana Department of Health we found the obstacles were too great to implement the program. Exposure to the challenges facing the corrections department and examining how to implement the Act as written was a lesson in the value of viewing an issue from multiple perspectives.

Abstract:
A state-wide random telephone survey of 225 adult Arkansans was conducted to assess name recognition and evaluations of political and nonpolitical personages. Analysis indicated that one of the more publicized and infamous names in political advertising, Willie Horton, was not recognized by most Arkansans. This raises questions as to the real influence of the Willie Horton advertisements and the rush to judgment of irreparable harm that many experts concluded as a result of the prison furlough advertisements.

Abstract:
Prisoners are not exempted from sexual desire. Therefore, sexual activity is continuous in various forms behind bar, regardless of the stringent rules. However, little is known about such behaviours during incarceration in Katsina State, Nigeria. This study aimed to determine the sociodemographic and forensic characteristics as well as sexual practices among prison inmates in Katsina. A descriptive cross-sectional study was done to collect data of 216 inmates using semi-structured questionnaires from September 24th, 2018 to November 9th, 2018 (6 weeks) at Katsina Central Correctional Service. Data was analyzed using IBM Statistical Package for Social Sciences software (SPSS) Version 20. The mean (± Standard deviation, SD) ages of respondents were 31.5±10.9 years. Most of the respondents (94%) were male, almost half of them (44.4%) had secondary school education, more than half (55.1%) were into business or trading and the majority (75.9%) were awaiting trial. Nearly all inmates (98.6%) reported having sexual desire. Watching the nakedness of others (44.4%) and masturbation (38%) were the commonest means of sexual expression and satisfaction of sexual desire while in prison. The study found predominant male inmates who were within the reproductive and sexually active age group, with secondary school education and unemployed. The majority had sexual desires, with watching nakedness of others and masturbation as the commonest means of satisfying their sexual desires. Correctional facility authorities should implement sexual health programs for inmates and consider conjugal visitations/furloughs.

Abstract:
Retributivism is one of the most prevalent theories in contemporary penal theory. However, despite its popularity it is frequently argued that too little attention has been paid to the implications of retributivism for prison management and prison life, including prison visits and furlough. More so, it has been questioned both whether the various forms of retributivism found in the philosophical literature on criminal punishment have anything to say about what prison life ought to be like and whether they are able to criticize deeply contested rules and practices, such as those that deny inmates contact with family-members for the sake of prison discipline. In this paper, we argue that prison visits and furlough have a crucial role in a prison system based on retributivist principles. In particular, we argue that the communicative theory of punishment has important theoretical resources for proving a strong and compelling rationale for both furlough and visitation on retributivist grounds. Besides exploring this rationale, we also discuss the practical implications of this view for the penal policy.

Abstract:
Far from being scientifically measurable or objectively intolerable, risk was defined by proponents of furloughs as a necessary feature of a reintegrationist view of corrections—that is, that prisons should prepare their residents with the tools for their inevitable return to society. At the very moment when “crime in the streets” emerged as an elastic mantra that helped to fuel mass incarceration, prisons were temporarily releasing people onto the streets in the name of public safety. After explaining the development of furloughs as a tool of “community corrections,” chapter 8 explores the case of Massachusetts, where prison organizing and a reformist administration made the state’s prisons a laboratory of experimentation and revealed fault lines between correctional administrators, elected officials, and members of the public. The chapter traces how a liberal furlough program became an entrenched feature of the Massachusetts prison system, even for those convicted of first-degree murder.

Abstract:
Chapter 7 examines the roots of furlough programs in the Jim Crow South. In the first half of the twentieth century, southern governors and wardens allowed the temporary release of large numbers of prisoners, and these efforts were supported by the public and the press. In a context where “degrees of freedom” provided a normative structure for southern society as a whole, allowing temporary release to prisoners as a reward for good behavior made sense. Prisoners treasured furloughs as opportunities to maintain connections with the outside world. By the 1950s, penological reformers perceived the fluidity of southern prisons as a feature to emulate. While Mississippi’s penal system was regarded by outsiders as backward and brutal, the “open” plantation prison came to be regarded as an antidote to the “cell-block psychosis” of urban, fortress-like facilities. Thus, penologists around the country identified Mississippi’s furlough practices as a model for modern corrections.

Abstract:
The introduction opens with an Inside-Out Prison Exchange class in 2019, a college course that brings undergraduate students inside prisons to study with incarcerated students. Reflecting on the rarity of such an encounter, the introduction argues that prisons walls have not always been impermeable, and that permeability has been both a vehicle for social control and a way for prisoners to resist such control. Following a description of a 1968 tour by “traveling ambassadors” from the Louisiana State Penitentiary at Angola, the introduction explains how clemency, conjugal visits, and furloughs help us understand changing ideas of risk and rehabilitation; allegiances across political categories; geography of prison practices across time and place; connections between penal practices and welfare policies; and prisoners’ sense of their own entitlements, relationships, and transformation.

Abstract:
By the end of the 1960s, anti-institutionalism had extended beyond mental health and bled into prison reform. This chapter tracks the rise and fall of efforts to find alternatives to prisons. In the late 1960s and early 1970s, changes in psychiatry, politics, and the law led to a deinstitutionalization in both mental health and corrections policy making. Not only did politicians and advocates look for alternatives to mental hospitals, they also sought alternatives to prisons. They expanded probation, parole, and furlough and created community corrections initiatives such as halfway houses and work-release programs. The number of people in prisons and jails fell, even during a time of increased policing. These reforms came under attack, however, as politicians depicted people in prison as dangerous criminals and ushered in harsh sentencing reforms. A law and order politics that relied on racial discrimination halted efforts to deinstitutionalize prisons. By the mid-1970s, after more than a decade of decline, new prison construction began and the number of imprisoned people nationwide rose. These changes had a devastating effect on individuals with mental health conditions. Many of them were caught in the web of this new era of mass incarceration.

Abstract:
Abstract This chapter shows how Bush initially took a lead by attacking Dukakis over the Massachusetts prison furlough program and his veto of a bill requiring teachers to lead students in the Pledge of Allegiance. In particular, the vice president focused on the case of William Horton, a prison who committed a rape while out on furlough. In advance of the Democratic convention, Dukakis made his decision to name Texas senator Lloyd Bentsen his vice-presidential nominee. The Dukakis campaign also moved to perfect the art of raising “soft money,” unlimited contributions outside the bars imposed by the post-Watergate campaign finance reforms. At the convention, the Democrats debated the issue of Palestinian self-determination, foreshadowing an internal struggle that would grow over the next three decades. And Bill Clinton introduced himself to the nation with a convention speech that went completely awry and nearly destroyed his career. After a successful convention, Dukakis took a 17-point lead in the polls and seemed on his way to the White House.

Abstract This chapter shows how Bush continued to use the issues of race and patriotism to cement his lead over Dukakis. The vice president emphasized the governor’s veto of a bill mandating teachers lead their students in the Pledge of Allegiance as well as the story of William Horton, a prisoner who committed a rape while out on a prison furlough. The Dukakis campaign briefly gained momentum after their presidential candidate won the first debate and Bentsen emerged as the overwhelming victor in the vice-presidential debate. Indeed, the Texas’ senator’s declaration that Quayle was “no Jack Kennedy” would echo through history as the most memorable moment in the history of V.P. debates. Needing another big moment in the second presidential debate, Dukakis squandered his chance when he seemed unemotional when moderator Bernard Show asked if he’d support the death penalty if someone had raped and murdered his wife. Finally, “Saturday Night Live” political skits became a central part of the presidential discussion and global warming became a subject of concern for the first time.

Abstract:
Abstract Neither crime, furlough policies, or the death penalty played a major role in George Bush’s first term. Nor did water pollution. The campaign run on Willie Horton, a “revolving door” prison policy, and the pollutants in Boston Harbor had, in other words, failed to forecast Bush’s presidency. Although exit polls showed that most did not believe he would deliver on it, voters did remember the statement Bush repeated most often in the campaign of 1988: “Read my lips. No new taxes.” When, bowing to fiscal reality and political pressure, Reagan’s presumed heir reneged on that promise and the economy proved persistently sluggish, the incumbent entered the 1992 primaries as a hobbled candidate, vulnerable to the issues of taxes and trust. The state of the nation and the sentiments of voters in January 1992 were not foreseen by the big-name Democrats, including 1988 contenders Rev. Jesse Jackson and Tennessee’s Senator Al Gore. For public reasons that varied and private motives that included the presumption that the incumbent was unbeatable, one major Democratic leader after another decided in Spring 1991 not to make the run in 1992. What they did not know but history would show was the ephemeral nature of Bush’s 90% approval ratings in the wake of the 100-hour Gulf War against Saddam Hussein. That fleeting period of popularity occurred when the president responded with force to Iraq’s invasion of Kuwait.
