This article details how a subset of women can perceive of prison as temporary refuge from the hardships and marginalization they face on the outside. It focuses particularly on a group of 88 women incarcerated in western Canada. A large percentage of these women accentuated several reasons why they saw being incarcerated as a desirable alternative to their marginalized situation in their respective communities. These findings nuance our understanding of the place of prison in the lives of these women and draws attention to notable gaps in Canada’s often-celebrated social welfare system.

监狱作为临时避难所:扩大被囚禁在监狱中的妇女的声音

本文详细介绍了一部分妇女如何将监狱视为她们在外界所面临的困苦和边缘化中的临时避难所。它特别关注加拿大西部有88名被监禁的妇女。这些妇女中有很大一部分强调了一些理由,说明为什么她们被监禁是在各自社区中被边缘化的理想选择。这些发现使我们对监狱在这些妇女生活中的位置的理解变得微妙,并提请人们注意加拿大经常受到赞扬的社会福利制度中的显着差距。
