EXTRA POSTAGE FOR INTERNATIONAL AIRMAIL OUTSIDE EUROPE OTHERWISE WILL GO SURFACE MAIL Synopsis This book provides a comprehensive account of the imprisonment of women for politically motivated offences in Northern Ireland between 1972 and 1999. Women political prisoners were engaged in a campaign to obtain formal recognition as political prisoners, and then to retain this status after it was revoked. Their lengthy involvement in a prison conflict of international significance was notable as much because of its longevity as the radical aspects of their prison protects, which included hunger strikes, dirty-protests and campaigns against institutional abuses. "Out of Order" brings out the qualitatively distinctive character and punitive ethos of regimes of political imprisonment for women, exploring the dynamics of their internal organisation, the ways in which they subverted order and security in prison, and their strategies of resistance and exploitation. Drawing upon a wide range or first hand accounts and interviews this book brings together perspectives from the areas of political imprisonment, the penal punishment of women and the question of agency and resistance in prison to create a unique, highly readable study of a neglected subject.

"The book aims to provide a critical appreciation of the notion of community justice, its origin and direction, and to engage with debates on the ways in which the trend towards community justice is changing the criminal justice system. At the same time it examnes the inter-agency character of intervention and the developing idea of end-to-end offender management, and familiarizes the reader with a number of more specialized areas such as hate crime, mental illness, substance abuse, and victims."
