These people constitute a sub-waged, captive workforce who are frequently discarded by the state when done with. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ci\u003eWork and the Carceral State\u003c\/i\u003e examines these forms of work as part of a broader exploration of the relationship between criminalization, criminal justice, immigration policy and labor, tracing their lineage through the histories of transportation and banishment, of houses of correction and prisons, to the contemporary production of work. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Criminalization has been used to enforce work and to discipline labor throughout the history of England and Wales. This book demands that we recognise the carceral state as operating at the frontier of labor control in the 21st century.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Jon Burnett\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0745340164\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780745340166\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Pluto Press (UK)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/20\/2022\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 224\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.66lbs","brand":"Jon Burnett","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44491718557951,"sku":"9780745340166","price":25.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_e55d152a-c7d6-44a0-b93a-b7d677989dd3.jpg?v=1699452834","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/work-and-the-carceral-state-jon-burnett-9780745340166","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
