oh, portuguese

social anthropology tends to be very empirical so I did fieldwork in three portuguese prisons + started a film program in a fourth to try and figure out the role of "culture" in prisons

so the text is mostly an attempt at providing a framework to think about how that relates to structures of discipline and punishment

I do connect it with recent trends in european prison management. european countries with relatively strong social states tend to differ from the american context as it's not so much the whole private storage facilities for minorities thing

but there's a bit on there that is based on the work of an american anthropologist, but I mostly just draw concepts from her because she wrote two really good papers and there's really very little written about this subject which is why I went in it in the first place
