President Biden has called for reform of the criminal justice system to ensure fair treatment of people who are transgender who come into contact with the criminal justice system. He has done so in a context in which criminologists, public health researchers, and others, including journalists and advocates, have produced a growing body of research that documents the over criminalization and differential incarceration of people who are transgender as well as the high rates of victimization of transgender women who are incarcerated. Accordingly, this article describes a growing literature on the sexual victimization experienced by transgender women who are incarcerated; focuses analytic attention on the housing contexts in which this kind of discriminatory gendered violence emerges and takes shape; points to some emergent policy responses related to these concerns; and calls for original research that, if conducted, could advance the criminological literature in meaningful ways and set the stage for evidence‐based prison policy and practice related to what is now predictably high rates of violence against transgender women who are incarcerated.

对被监禁的变性妇女进行性侵犯的社会生态学:呼吁(更多)研究住房和监狱暴力的方式

拜登总统呼吁改革刑事司法系统,以确保公平对待与刑事司法系统接触过的跨性别者。在这样的背景下,犯罪学家,公共卫生研究人员以及包括记者和主张者在内的其他人进行了越来越多的研究,这些研究记录了对跨性别者的过度定罪和不同程度的监禁以及高犯罪率。被监禁的变性妇女受害。因此,本文描述了越来越多的关于被监禁的变性妇女遭受性侵害的文献。将分析注意力集中在这种歧视性的性别暴力出现并形成的住房背景上;指出了与这些担忧有关的一些新的政策应对措施;并呼吁开展原创性研究,如果能够开展研究,可以以有意义的方式推进犯罪学文献的发展,并为基于证据的监狱政策和实践奠定基础,该政策和实践与目前可预见的针对被监禁的跨性别妇女的暴力事件高发有关。
