Many people think prisons are all the same-rows of cells filled with violent men who officials rule with an iron fist. Yet, life behind bars varies in incredible ways. In some facilities, prison officials govern with care and attention to prisoners' needs. In others, officials have remarkably little influence on the everyday life of prisoners, sometimes not even providing necessities like food and clean water. Why does prison social order around the world look so remarkably different? In The Puzzle of Prison Order, David Skarbek develops a theory of why prisons and prison life vary so much. He finds that how they're governed-sometimes by the state, and sometimes by the prisoners-matters the most. He investigates life in a wide array of prisons-in Brazil, Bolivia, Norway, a prisoner of war camp, England and Wales, women's prisons in California, and a gay and transgender housing unit in the Los Angeles County Jail-to understand the hierarchy of life on the inside. Drawing on economics and a vast empirical literature on legal systems, Skarbek offers a framework to not only understand why life on the inside varies in such fascinating and novel ways, but also how social order evolves and takes root behind bars.
As a beam of light, God's love can pierce through the darkness to change the lives of people who are lonely, struggling, fearful, and oftentimes forgotten! God's love is not stopped by prison walls or the crimes committed by those inside. God's love is constant and sure, and it is for everyone! Peace in Prison is a compilation of short stories, thoughts, and Bible truths about prostitutes, murderers, adulterers, hypocrites, and thieves who started a new life in Jesus Christ. No matter where you are or what you have done, you can have a fresh start with God. After reading this book, it is the author's hope that you will say, "Jesus is in jail," as many have told her after talking with her during one of her many visits behind bars. Experience Peace in Prison by getting to know the One who freely offers peace and love to all who accept His gift.
