Abstract

Despite a growth in desistance research, our understanding of how local external factors may affect the desistance process as people transition from prison to society remains limited. Drawing on qualitative data from two neighbourhoods in Northern Ireland, it is argued that subcultural factors in neighbourhoods can play a key role in influencing desistance during reintegration by shaping the opportunities that individuals have to access, use and sell drugs, their experiences of social integration/exclusion and processes of surveillance and collective efficacy. It is argued that there is a need to better incorporate the effects of local external factors, including subcultural norms and values, into existing desistance theories if we are to fully understand how neighbourhood context can affect desistance during reintegration.

语境中的抵抗力：了解亚文化对重新整合过程中抵抗力过程的影响

摘要

尽管抗扰性研究不断增长，但随着人们从监狱向社会过渡的过程中，我们对本地外部因素如何影响抗阻过程的理解仍然有限。根据北爱尔兰两个社区的定性数据，有人认为，社区中的亚文化因素可以通过塑造个人必须获得，使用和出售毒品的机会，他们的社会融合经历/来影响重新融合过程中的抗逆能力。排除，监测过程和集体效力。有人认为，如果我们要充分了解邻里环境如何在重新融合过程中影响荒漠化，就需要更好地将当地的外部因素（包括亚文化规范和价值）的影响纳入现有的荒漠化理论中。
