Sinopsis

The Prison Question is a book written by Charles Howell Reeve in 1890. The book provides a theoretical and philosophical review of some matters relating to crime, punishment, prisons, and reformation of convicts. Reeve explores the various aspects of the prison system and its impact on society. He discusses the history of prisons, the purpose of punishment, and the role of prisons in society. The book also examines the conditions of prisons and the treatment of prisoners, including issues of overcrowding, violence, and abuse. Reeve argues that the prison system needs to be reformed to better serve the needs of society and the needs of prisoners. He suggests that prisons should focus on rehabilitation rather than punishment, and that prisoners should be given opportunities to learn new skills and education to help them reintegrate into society. The Prison Question is a thought-provoking and insightful book that provides a comprehensive analysis of the prison system and its role in society.With A Glance At Mental, Social, And Political Conditions; And Some Suggestions About Causes, And The Prevention Of Crime And The Production Of Criminals.

Reseña del editor

Philosophical Society of Chicago on the Rationale of Punishment for public offences. The views then briefly presented are elaborated in this work. They were in advance of the times then, but experience and concurrence of thought have shown them to be generally correct, and they are being tried in practice in some respects to a limited extent, in some localities. The time is not distant when the public opinion will fully endorse them, and become more radical in its efforts to suppress vice than is herein suggested. The ideas advanced have passed beyond the mere force of propositions, and sooner or later, to careful observers, they will be regarded as real theories, because they are in harmony with their environment, and will continue to be so as the field of inquiry and development grows larger. The rapid and alarming increase in the numbers of criminals and in the extension of the planes on which they act, as well as of increase of the demented, and the professional paupers, being out of proportion to increase of population, present problems for solution in social, political and mental science, that call for the continued and diligent efforts of the ablest minds in the land.
