Synopsis uitgever
"I strongly recommend this book. Haney's account is rich with ethnographic detail that brings life to abstract debates about mode of governance and the state." American Journal Of Sociology / AJS "Enriched with vivid images and details on incarcerated women's lives, this book reminds us of incarcerated women's social realities." -- Olivera Simic Feminist Review "Insightful... This book will appeal to persons with an interest in women's studies." -- Jack E. Call Law & Politics Book Review "Offending women makes excellent use of ethnographic material and close observation to build a compelling analysis of two state institutions."
