Esta obra es el resultado de la investigación denominada "Familia y privación de la libertad" realizada durante los años 2014 y 2015 por el equipo de investigación en asuntos penitenciarios y carcelarios del Instituto Rosarista de Acción Social -SERES-. Esta investigación tenía por objetivo establecer los impactos de la privación de la libertad en las familias y sus dinámicas, desde los puntos de vista jurídico, económico, psicológico y social, de acuerdo con la percepción y vivencia personal de las personas privadas de la libertad y algunos de los miembros que conforman su familia. Con base en la información encontrada en campo fue posible establecer una concepción de familia que, lejos de presentarse como una estructura rígida, permite formas flexibles y diversas. Igualmente, el estudio propone una tipología de familia de la persona privada de la libertad, presenta los efectos de la desvinculación familiar y las formas de adaptarse a diferentes situaciones.

"Between 1415, when the Portuguese first used convicts for colonization purposes in the North African enclave of Ceuta, to the 1960s and the dissolution of Stalin's gulags, global powers including the Spanish, Dutch, Portuguese, British, Russians, Chinese and Japanese transported millions of convicts to forts, penal settlements and penal colonies all over the world. A Global History of Convicts and Penal Colonies builds on specific regional archives and literatures to write the first global history of penal transportation. The essays explore the idea of penal transportation as an engine of global change, in which political repression and forced labour combined to produce long-term impacts on economy, society and identity. They investigate the varied and interconnected routes convicts took to penal sites across the world, and the relationship of these convict flows to other forms of punishment, unfree labour, military service and indigenous incarceration. They also explore the lived worlds of convicts, including work, culture, religion and intimacy, and convict experience and agency."--Bloomsbury Publishing.

Sudden custodial deaths in the wake of violent restraint encounters have emerged as a critical issue for police, correctional, and medical care workers around the world. In Sudden Deaths in Custody, leading researchers and experts review the medical, legal, psychological, and administrative aspects of violent restraint encounters and offer insights into controlling such incidents. The authors assess the medical considerations in such cases, including how the stress of an encounter may influence the physiological responses of the subject, how chemical substances may affect the behavior of and contribute to the death of the person in custody, and offer an explanation of the role of excited delirium. The authors also address the use of force involving neck holds, restraints, aerosols, tasers, and other physical restraints. Numerous examples illustrate the nature and problems associated with sudden in-custody restraint deaths, along with a survey of the issues involved in performing a custodial death investigation and the legal question of civil liability. The authors also discuss risk management strategies, policy and procedure concerns, training issues, subject monitoring, prisoner transportation, officer incident reporting, and investigating an incident from an agency perspective. Comprehensive and authoritative, Sudden Deaths in Custody illuminates the many facets of sudden in-custody deaths to better prepare police officers, administrators, investigators, and medical personnel for such events and the frequent civil lawsuits claiming wrongful death.
