It also looks at the recommendations of international and European institutions which, while relatively cautious, nevertheless support such progress. Examining the issue from a criminological viewpoint, the book investigates the role that prisoners' votes could play in the social integration of these individuals into the community through political inclusion as citizens. Offering legal, theoretical and empirical bases, it blends a variety of perspectives to help readers establish an understanding of how prisoners' voting could contribute to improving their attachment to society and its values.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eConcise and direct, \u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003e Prisoners' Vote\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e will be of great interest to upper-level students and scholars of law, criminology, sociology, criminal justice, and political science.
