*In place of prisons, some abolitionists propose community-controlled courts, councils, or assemblies to control the problem of social crime. A large part of the problem, according to some, is the way the judicial system deals with prisoners, people and capital. They argue that there would be fewer prisoners if society treated people more fairly, regardless of gender, color, ethnic background, sexual orientation, education, etc.

===What is to be abolished?===
*Prison as punishment, i.e. as a punitive reaction to crime, i.e. as a legal reaction to a violation of criminal law that consists of the intentional infliction of suffering to make someone "pay" for his crime.
*Not: confinement per se. Not confinement for medical reasons or reasons of public security (serial killer).
*Empirical hypothesis: public security can be guaranteed as well as with prisons or even better by ambulatory measures.
