- Description
- Current en former prisoners, activists and academics describe how race, gender, ability and sexuality are lived in captivity. They argue that trans/queer liberation and prison abolition must be grown together. This second, revised and expanded edition includes a new foreword by CeCe McDonald which explores the importance books like 'Captive Genders' played for her during her incarceration. From her prison cell, Chelsea E. Manning writes about the relationship between military and the prison system. Janetta Johnson and Toshio Meronek argue that supporting people after they are released is vital to abolition. Kalaniopua Young explores the histories of colonialism, forced gender normativity and prison.

- Description
- This issue is dedicated to the problems of migrations from the point of view of undertaken research in Switserland. Magalie Gafner and Irène Schmidlin analyze the possibilities for migrant women to obtain stable residency status in Switzerland. They argue that the legal provisions have discriminatory effects on women who are not citizens of the EU or EFTA. The number of women migrating to Switzerland from countries outside the European Union has significantly increased in recent years. The feminization of migration has been conceptualized in the literature as an outcome of global economic forces and as the only option for women from low-income countries to solve their material needs. Yvonne Riaño and Nadia Baghdadi argue that this perspective is insufficient to explain female migration. Based on a qualitative analysis of the life stories of twenty women from Latin America, Southeast Europe and the Middle East, they conclude that many factors other than economic hardship shape the decisions of women to migrate. In particular, a desire to achieve gender equality in wider society and at the household level appears to be a strong motivation for migration. In her article Corinne Dallera provides reflections on the condition of women immigrant workers through a presentation of the experiences of three such women since their arrival in Switzerland in the beginning of the 1980s. These intimate reports reveal important aspects of the ways in which gender relations are structured by the discriminatory system that regulates residency for those of foreign nationality and vice versa, with the aim of controlling women immigrants. Dallera also questions the great influence that psycho-culturalism plays in the official approach to the integration of immigrant women in Switzerland. Christine Achermann and Ueli Hochstettler based their paper on research on foreign inmates in two high-security prisons in Switzerland (one for female and the other for male inmates). They look at the prison as a gendered organization and explores how it copes with the growing heterogeneity of the prison population due to global migration and delinquency.

- Description
- Meestal worden illegalen, mensen zonder verblijfsvergunning, omschreven als criminele gelukzoekers die een aanslag plegen op de welvaaartsstaat. Om te begrijpen hoe dergelijke reacties tot stand komen, en welke rol mensenhandel daarin speelt, is het belangrijk deze processen te analyseren. Die analyse blijft meestal achterwege, omdat mensen veelal blijven steken in een gevoel van walging en morele verontwaardiging. Dit themanummer over vrouwenhandel, migratie en globalisering is een poging voorbij die morele afschuw te komen. Professor Ratna Kapur uit India en de Amerikaanse politicoloog Jacqueline Berman hebben beiden essays geschreven over mensenhandel, geanalyseerd vanuit het perspectief van migratie, globalisering en gender. Met columns en cartoons.

- Description
- This book reveals the unseen side of the '9/11 wars': their impact on the wives and families of men incarcerated in Guantanamo, or in prison or under house arrest in Britain and the US. Brittain shows how these families have been made socially invisible and a scapegoat for the state in order to exercise arbitrary powers under the cover of the 'War on Terror'. The book reveals how a culture of intolerance and cruelty has left individuals at the mercy of the security services’ unverifiable accusations and punishment. The book shows the methods of social control being used by the British state and gives a voice to the families whose lives have been turned upside down.

- Description
- In Nederland is het aantal gedetineerde vrouwen die op strafrechtelijke titel in de gevangenis verbleef tussen 1995 en 2005 bijna verdubbeld. Een derde van de vrouwen verbleef er voor drugsdelicten, ongeveer een kwart voor geweldsdelicten, en nog eens een kwart voor vermogensdelicten. Auteurs laten zien wat er bekend is over de kenmerken van gedetineerde vrouwen, wat het huidige Nederlandse beleid is rondom vrouwen en welke problemen vrouwen tijdens hun gevangenschap ervaren. Het doel van dit artikel is te laten zien wat gedetineerde vrouwen en hun positie specifiek maakt en waarom vrouwen mogelijk een genderspecifiek beleid nodig hebben.
