| book description |
Bringing together cutting edge and diverse research from international and interdisciplinary perspectives, this book initiates and shapes conversations about transgender people within the criminal justice system. Ambitious and timely, the book collates research to provide detailed research-based insights into the involvement of transgender people in different types of criminal justice systems and in different parts of the world. With a focus on all parts of the system, chapters explore interactions with various criminal justice services, with a principal focus on carceral systems. In doing so, a wide variety of topics are discussed, including access to medical care and vulnerability to harassment and physical violence as well as the uses and abuses of state power. These are examined using a plethora of methods, and through the different perspectives provided by the authors, including academics, activists, and practitioners. Collating international research and enabling comparisons with and between different criminal justice systems, Transgender People Involved with Carceral Systems will be of value to academics, practitioners, human rights defenders, and policy-makers working across a wide range of disciplines and criminal justice contexts, including criminology, sociology, law, social policy, zemiology, queer theory, and transgender studies.
