[Air-L] Seeking literature on Internet access in prisons and detention facilities

Tue Jul 14 03:46:28 PDT 2020

Dear Muira,

Thanks for bringing such an interesting topic. I have worked in Portuguese, and I am working on an article in English not precisely concerning prisons but referring to juvenile detention centres for young offenders. 

I don't know if you are aware of these publications, some of them might be interesting for you:

CARVALHO, M. J. & SERRÃO, J. 2014. Young offenders’ interests and motivations related to accessing TV and Press news. Participations Journal of Audience & Reception Studies, 11, 150-173.

REISDORF, B. C. & JEWKES, Y. 2016. (B)Locked sites: cases of Internet use in three British prisons. Information, Communication & Society, 19, 771-771-786.

RIGGS, D. W., KING, D., DELFABBRO, P. H. & AUGOUSTINOS, M. 2009. “Children Out of Place”. Journal of Children and Media, 3, 234-248.

TANG, D. T.-S. 2017. Feeling alive: Voices of incarcerated youth in We Are Alive. Crime, Media, Culture, 13, 153-170.

If you could share references on the internet uses in detention facilities, especially for young people, I would appreciate it.

Best,

MJ

Hi Muira

Such an interesting and important topic. I am sure you are aware of Yvonne Jewkes publications on the topic? Chafic Najem at Stockholm University is currently working on a dissertation entitled Prison Produced Media: Politics, Visuality, and Testimonies in Lebanese Incarceration. 

Together with my colleague Fredrik Stiernstedt I have published a couple of related articles (though not directly on internet access, but media work conducted by prisoners and the notion of the smart prison):

Anne Kaun & Fredrik Stiernstedt (2020) Prison Media Work: From Manual Labor to the Work of Being Tracked. Media, Culture and Society. OnlineFirst https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/full/10.1177/0163443719899809 

Anne Kaun & Fredrik Stiernstedt (2019). Doing time / Time Done: Exploring the temporalities of datafication in the Smart Prison. In: Maren Hartmann; Elizabeth Prommer, Karin Deckner, Stephan Görland. Mediated Time. Basingstoke: Palgrave Macmillan, pp. 128-148.

http://sh.diva-portal.org/smash/get/diva2:1370356/FULLTEXT01.pdf 

and forthcoming:

Anne Kaun & Fredrik Stiernstedt (forthcoming) Doing time the smart way? Temporality of the smart prison. New Media and Society

Would be lovely if you could share your list later.

Thank you

Anne

    Dear Muira,

    some years ago, during my Phd, I did a research on media consumption

    practices of inmates in an Italian prison. I co-authored this paper: Bonini,

    T., & Perrotta, M. (2007). On and off the air: radio-listening experiences

    in the San Vittore prison. *Media, Culture & Society*, *29*(2), 179-193.

    You might also be interested in this New Yorker piece:

    Hope this helps, even if it's not focused on Internet access in Prisons

    Best
