Golden Gulag
Author: Ruth Wilson Gilmore
Publisher: Univ of California Press
ISBN: 0520938038
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 413
Book Description
Since 1980, the number of people in U.S. prisons has increased more than 450%. Despite a crime rate that has been falling steadily for decades, California has led the way in this explosion, with what a state analyst called "the biggest prison building project in the history of the world." Golden Gulag provides the first detailed explanation for that buildup by looking at how political and economic forces, ranging from global to local, conjoined to produce the prison boom. In an informed and impassioned account, Ruth Wilson Gilmore examines this issue through statewide, rural, and urban perspectives to explain how the expansion developed from surpluses of finance capital, labor, land, and state capacity. Detailing crises that hit California’s economy with particular ferocity, she argues that defeats of radical struggles, weakening of labor, and shifting patterns of capital investment have been key conditions for prison growth. The results—a vast and expensive prison system, a huge number of incarcerated young people of color, and the increase in punitive justice such as the "three strikes" law—pose profound and troubling questions for the future of California, the United States, and the world. Golden Gulag provides a rich context for this complex dilemma, and at the same time challenges many cherished assumptions about who benefits and who suffers from the state’s commitment to prison expansion.

Trees of Victoria and Adjoining Areas
Author: Leon F. Costermans
Publisher:
ISBN: 9780959910544
Category : Trees
Languages : en
Pages : 164
Book Description
Since Trees of Victoria was first produced in 1966, it has become widely known as the standard introduction to the Victorian bush, having sold over 160,000 copies. The Fifth Edition (1994) was a complete revision, and was greatly enlarged to describe some 250 species of trees and tall shrubs - almost all that are native to Victoria, southern NSW (including the ACT) and South Australia eastwards from Adelaide. This sixth edition (2006) incorporates taxonomic and other changes made since 1994, updated distribution information, and reference to additional species, some being recently described. With its clear illustrations, accurate descriptions and compact format, the book will continue to meet the needs of beginners in the bush exploration, as well as botanical students, land managers and conservationists.
