Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book explores the historical movement advocating for payment of wages to prisoners. The author traces the presence of such programs in the US from their origins in Massachusetts, through their prevalence and subsequent decline in the 18th and 19th centuries, to their revival in modern times. The discussion includes the arguments for and against wage-based penal labor put forth by such figures as Vilain, Archbishop Whatley, and Captain Maconochie, as well as an examination of the economic, social, and legal circumstances that have shaped the development of such schemes. The book presents compelling evidence of the potential benefits of wage-based penal systems, in particular their capacity to promote economic self-reliance and reduce recidivism rates among former inmates.
