New post from our series Within the System, by @EmilyStew9721: “Complete a Word Search Today, Marcus”. A man in remand uses a daily checklist to stay alive and focused. His story shows the power of structure — and how little of it exists after release.

Excited that @SBucerius, @kevindhaggerty and I's latest article is now live! We discuss how incarcerated men in a specialized prison program use their participation to create symbolic social boundaries between their current and former selves. (1/2)

Survey folks & prison researchers - what software/program would you recommend for survey collection on iPads in prisons? It needs to be able to collect the information offline. Any suggestions welcome! @ASC_DCS @AcademicChatter @CCR_UofA @BSC_PRN @UofAResearch @ACJS_National

New from me in @IncarcerationJ. I hope this piece complicates how we approach "decolonizing prisons" and encourages researchers to centre Indigenous experiences and advocacy when discussing these issues. The article is open access thanks to @CRKN_RCDR.

Perhaps the biggest finding of our research inside prisons was the significant impact of drugs on everyday life, reflected in this new article by @SBucerius, @kevindhaggerty, and @BerardiLuca. You can read it ahead of print in Crime and Justice.

Thrilled to share our new piece in Crime&Justice. Based on @theUAPP data, we argue that the prison/drug nexus is a structuring force of prison life and needs to be taken into account to fully appreciate incarceration experiences. journals.uchicago.edu/doi/10…

1/2 I've been working on this for a few years and am really pleased that it's finally out! Long and short: I interview correctional staff about how use of force is just another "part of the job," with some really interesting consequences.

I wrote a blog for @JohnHoward_Can. It summarizes my latest study on cultural prison programs for Indigenous people: "Realizing the potential of these initiatives requires transitioning into Indigenous-led justice and healing processes beyond prisons".
