Sumario: | "Criminalized women are a subject of growing interest in contemporary sociological research. However, much of the work in this area has focused on imprisonment, and little attention has been paid to women serving their sentences in the community. Doing Time on the Outside fills a gap in the research by studying the experiences of women on conditional release, and attempting to explain how some criminalized women avoid going back into custody given the many challenges they face."--Jacket |
