<p>This edited book explores new and enduring themes in the gendered experience of incarceration across the world. Capturing global debates and research on women’s treatment, their coping and resistances in penal settings, the collection promotes a feminist agenda that is attuned to the inherently patriarchal and intersectionally oppressive structures of contemporary punishment. It seeks to map policies and campaigns around women’s criminalisation across the world and offers one of the most comprehensive overviews of women’s imprisonment experiences across the Global North and Global South. Each chapter focusses on a different geographic context and theme and aims to provide the intellectual groundwork for a critical, world-wide movement advocating for women’s decarceration. As a whole, the collection offers a robust empirical understanding of women’s punishment in non-western, Global South contexts and also revisits ongoing debates in feminist accounts of punishment in the Global North.</p>
<p>In doing so, the collection examines hierarchical geopolitical relations between privileged and underprivileged nations, reflecting global inequalities and structural violence rooted in legacies of imperialism and colonialism. Overall, the edited collection shows how centering women’s peripheralized experiences can radically reshape our understanding of punishment and offers a new intellectual, methodological, and political means through which to think about gendered identity and imprisonment in the 21st Century.</p>

Explores women’s experiences of punishment and criminalisation globally Puts a spotlight on under-recognised and marginalised perspectives in the field of prison studies Draws on feminist and decolonial methodology and activist sensibility
<p>“Challenging the anglocentrism and androcentrism of dominant studies of mass incarceration, Geographies of Gendered Punishment widens our lens to include the stories, struggles and agency of cis and trans women in spaces that are routinely ignored by Western scholars. In so doing, Chamberlen and Bandyopadhyay provide a platform for silenced voices, and open the door to transformative decarceral movements across borders. This powerful collection is a much-needed call for intersectional abolitionist organizing in a world that punishes gendered and racialized acts of refusal and survival.” (Julia Chinyere Oparah, founder of the Center for Liberated Leadership; editor of Global Lockdown, Birthing Justice and Battling Over Birth)<br>

“This impressive collection contributes significantly to our understanding of how gender and punishment are influenced by the histories of imperialism and colonialism on a global scale. The contents of this book shed light on the often overlooked experiences of incarcerated women from 15 countries around the world. The book is diverse and sophisticated in its approach, demonstrating that gender-sensitive research on women's imprisonment is thriving. This book will be of interest to activists, academics, policymakers, and students in the fields of gender studies, geography, sociology, and criminology. It provides valuable insights and inspiration for those seeking justice for women incarcerated in some of the world's most challenging prisons.” (Kerry Carrington, University of the Sunshine Coast (USC) & Carrington Research Consultancy)<br>
<br>
“This edited volume is a much needed interrogation into the interconnectedness of gendered forms of harm, punishment and resistance. Through its interdisciplinary and intersectional approach, the volume engages in deep discussion on women’s punishment from a critical and practice focussed lens. Through a dialogue between the global North and South, the volume foregrounds the geographies of power which shape scholarship on punishment. This book will be of particular interest to those engaging with feminist, decolonial and abolitionist approaches to understanding punishment.” (Rimple Mehta, Western Sydney University)<br>
