Publication Metadata only The (in)distinction between remand imprisonment and prison sentence: revisiting pre-trial detention within Turkish youth justice system*(Elsevier Sci Ltd, 2021) Department of Sociology; Durak, Nilay Kavur; N/A; Department of Sociology; Migration Research Program at Koç University (MIReKoç) / Göç Araştırmaları Uygulama ve Araştırma Merkezi (MIReKoç); College of Social Sciences and Humanities; 294023Around 3.3 million people worldwide are in pretrial detention, and 14 million people are held in such detention per year. Despite the high numbers, remand imprisonment has received little attention in penal theories. Over the past couple of decades, Turkey has constructed high-security remand prisons for young pretrial detainees, indicating a transition towards securitization in the form of remand imprisonment. In these prisons, the element of ?space? and spatial control has taken precedence, while ?labour/discipline? and ?time? have lost significance, reflecting the securitization process. Research conducted in juvenile courts and prisons in 2014?2015 demonstrates how marginalized youth end up in remand prisons that have become social control facilities. Remand imprisonment is interpreted as a crime control and deterrence mechanism by both the prisoners and legal practitioners, and attains roles in crime control that correspond to the residual welfare regime.Publication Metadata only The association of gender role attitudes and offense type with public punitiveness toward male and female offenders(Elsevier Sci Ltd, 2018) Broers, Nick J.; de Ruiter, Corine; Academic and Life Skills (ALIS); Department of Sociology; Ersayan, Ayşe Esra; Ergin, Murat; Teaching Faculty; Faculty Member; Academic and Life Skills (ALIS); Department of Sociology; College of Social Sciences and Humanities; College of Social Sciences and Humanities; N/A; 106427N/A
