Dignity, Women, and Immigration Detention (Paperback)

1. While there has been growing research on the topic of immigration detention in the UK, this is the first to exclusively explore the experiences of women. The focus on experiences of detention, release and removal makes for a particularly broad subject. 2. Courses on penology and punishment are popular, even core components of a Criminology degree. This book offers much needed supplementary reading on a modern form of punishment, in the form of immigration detention.
