Full Description
This volume offers a diverse set of scholarly essays on the imaginative potential of corrections and sentencing research/practice that centers on the lived experience of the criminal legal system. The Editors define "lived experience" broadly, encompassing the subjective ways in which corrections and sentencing directly or indirectly affect a person's daily life. They employ a diverse and expansive conceptualization of lived experience; for example, people with lived experience can be directly involved in writing or conducting the research or may be indirectly involved where the submission is about a program that includes people with lived experience in its operations (e.g., credible messengers).
The volume includes 60 chapters written by academics, practitioners, and lived experts who are currently or formerly system-impacted. Chapters include short reflection essays on the meaning of lived experience, state of the knowledge reviews on topics related to lived experience, and more traditional empirical entries that highlight specific dimensions of lived experience.
This groundbreaking and thought-provoking Handbook will appeal to academics, practitioners, policymakers, advocates, and students seeking to understand the many ways in which ways in which corrections and sentencing directly or indirectly affect a person's daily life. This is Volume 10 of The ASC Division on Corrections and Sentencing Handbook Series. The handbooks provide in-depth coverage of seminal and topical issues around sentencing and corrections for scholars, students, practitioners, and policymakers.
