prisons  

Définition(s)

  • Prisons are the site of temporary confinement and chief form of punishment in the state's criminal justice system, in contrast to municipal or county jails linked to the courts. Explicitly urban institutions only in the early Republic, prisons have grown increasingly separate from urban spaces, but have nonetheless been an integral part of city life and a defining experience for a disproportionate number of the urban poor. [Source: Encyclopedia of American Urban History; Prisons]
