Jackson, Michael Justice Behind the Walls; Human Rights in Canadian Prisons
Vancouver BC Douglas & McIntyre 2002 155054893x / 9781550548938 First Edition; First Printing Hardcover Near Fine in Very Good+ dust jacket
Only light edge wear to DJ; A bright, solid book DJ in protective Mylar sleeve.; 2.1 x 9.2 x 6.4 Inches; 636 pages; In 1777, John Howard, the pre-eminent prison reformer of his generation, published The State of the Prisons in England and Wales, an indictment of the cruelty of prison life and a blueprint for radical change. Over two centuries later Michael Jackson, Queen's Counsel, law professor & human rights advocate, gives us Justice Behind the Walls, a compelling, compassionate & harrowing account of the state of justice in Canadian prisons - weaving together the threads of correctional history, landmark court decisions, the enactment of the Charter of Rights and Freedoms, penal philosophy and legislative change, Justice Behind the Walls describes the reality of reform against the backdrop of Jackson's years of observation of disciplinary hearings and segregation review boards in federal security penitentiaries and his hundreds of hours of interviews with wardens, correctional staff & prisoners. At a time when the issue of human rights in prison is dangerously close to being eclipsed by rising waves of fear about public safety, this book takes us beyond the stereotypes of the keeper & the kept. Based upon the reality rather than the mirage of reform, Jackson's book brings to the agenda of public & legal debate a remedial toolbox with the potential to enhance Canada's claim as an international model for a just society.
