ST-Mass Incarceration/ US
This is a course about crime, law and deviance in the U.S. focusing on mass incarceration. It's well known that crimes and imprisonments prevail particularly among less educated young black men. However, we often see individualistic accounts, blaming only inmates. This course will challenge these individualistic accounts of crime/imprisonment by discussing the larger social context of mass incarceration.
