What explains the boom in private prisons in the US? Karyl Kicenski examines the privatisation of California state prisons to illuminate the forces that shape and distort US criminal justice policies. Tracing the growth of private prisons from 1980 to the current day, Kicenski explores the role of political and economic factors, as well as the impact of changing public attitudes towards crime and governance.
