While some have been sentenced to life in prison without parole, the majority of prisoners serving 'life' will be released back into society. But what becomes of those people who reenter the everyday world after serving life in prison? In After Life Imprisonment, Marieke Liem carefully examines the experiences of 'lifers' upon release. Through interviews with over sixty homicide offenders sentenced to life but granted parole, Liem tracks those able to build a new life on the outside and those who were re-incarcerated. The interviews reveal prisoners' reflections on being sentenced to life, as well as the challenges of employment, housing, and interpersonal relationships upon release. Liem explores the increase in handing out of life sentences, and specifically provides a basis for discussions of the goals, costs, and effects of long-term imprisonment, ultimately unpacking public policy and discourse surrounding long-term incarceration. A profound criminological examination, After Life Imprisonment reveals the untold, lived experiences of prisoners before and after their life sentences"--Provided by publisher. 000775356 650_0 $$aPrisoners$$xDeinstitutionalization$$zUnited States. 000775356 650_0 $$aMurderers$$zUnited States. 000775356 650_0 $$aLife imprisonment$$xSocial aspects$$zUnited States. 000775356 650_0 $$aEx-convicts$$zUnited States$$xSocial conditions. 000775356 650_0 $$aEx-convicts$$zUnited States$$xEconomic conditions. 000775356 650_0 $$aRecidivism$$zUnited States. 000775356 7001_ $$aSampson, Robert J.,$$d1956-$$ewriter of foreword. 000775356 830_0 $$aNew perspectives in crime, deviance, and law series. 000775356 85200 $$bgen$$hHV9304$$i.L54$$i2016 000775356 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:775356$$pGLOBAL_SET 000775356 980__ $$aBIB 000775356 980__ $$aBOOK
