It draws upon in-depth interviews with Indigenous and non-Indigenous women, as well as interviews conducted with prison practitioners - psychologists, counsellors, and Aboriginal Liaison Officers. \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eUsing a theoretical framework of social exclusion, the book charts the complex intersection between cognitively disabled women and the Criminal Justice System, and how this connection works to foster and maintain a state of social exclusion prior to incarceration, and equally, within the prison setting. The book also provides a practical template for other researchers to use when investigating the aligned fields of the Criminal Justice System and incarceration, women offenders, cognitive disability, and social exclusion. By placing the voices of the incarcerated women with cognitive disabilities 'front and centre', a new and innovative approach to social exclusion emerges. The book moves beyond the 'telling of sad stories' to examine the social and political climate that permits disadvantage, inequality, and injustice to flourish. \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThis book will be of great interest to academics and students in criminology, criminal justice, disability studies, women's and gender studies, and penology. In exploring theory in a practical way, it will also be of use to those involved in the health sector, community services, disability support agencies, disability advocates, prisoner advocacy, women's studies and women's advocacy, and human rights activism.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Julie-Anne Toohey\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1032119195\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781032119199\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Routledge\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 12\/31\/2021\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 210\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.08lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.21h x 6.14w x 0.56d","brand":"Julie-Anne Toohey","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":43981703545087,"sku":"9781032119199","price":170.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_dad2fd0b-3233-44a4-b5f9-2d2ed1b87204.jpg?v=1683257069","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-social-exclusion-of-incarcerated-julie-anne-toohey-9781032119199","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
