Prison health, prisoner safety and imprisonment rates matter: intrinsically and for health and safety outside. Existing prison regulation apparatuses (e.g. OPCAT) are extensive and hold unrealized potential to shape imprisonment. However, criminologists have not yet engaged much with this potential. In this article, I reconceptualize prison regulation by exploring the work of a broad range of multisectoral regulators who operate across stakeholder groups. I illustrate that voluntary organizations and families bereaved by prison suicide act as regulators, although their substantive actions have been erased from official narratives. Mobilizing (threats of) litigation, these actors have responsibilized the state and brought qualitative changes across the prison estate.

重新概念化多部门监狱监管:志愿组织和死者家属作为监管者

监狱健康,囚犯安全和监禁率很重要:从本质上来说,对于外部的健康和安全而言。现有的监狱管理设备(例如OPCAT)种类繁多,具有无法实现监禁的潜力。但是,犯罪学家尚未充分利用这种潜力。在本文中,我通过探索跨利益相关者团体的广泛的多部门监管者的工作,重新构想监狱监管。我举例说明,尽管官方的叙述已经抹去了他们的实质性行动,但因自杀而丧生的志愿组织和家庭却起了监管者的作用。这些参与者动员了诉讼的威胁,使国家承担了责任,并在整个监狱产业中带来了质的变化。
