| Sumario: | Women’s incarceration has outgrown the pace of men’s incarceration in recent decades. Their experiences in correctional settings are also unique from that of their male counterparts. Feminist criminology has provided insight into the lived experiences of women who are criminalized, as well as individuals with multiple oppressed/stigmatized statuses. However, the paucity of these experiences from a convict criminology perspective stands out. While this "struggle for inclusion" has been acknowledged and discussed in the academic literature, it still needs to be rectified through increased scholarship documenting the unique, intersectional and shared experiences of formerly incarcerated and/or system-impacted individuals in terms of age, race, gender and gender identity, sexuality, and nationality. One way this can be done is by incorporating feminist epistemology and theory into the discipline in order to shape a truly diverse and inclusive convict criminology of the future - a feminist convict criminology for the future. |
