This means completely doing away with specific sectors of the prison system. This was successfully done in Norway and Germany with work houses, in Massachussets with juvenile training schools. It was tried with varying success with respect to short-term imprisonment (Germany), fine-default imprisonment (Denmark, Sweden) and with lifetime imprisonment (Norway, Spain) etc. It has also been advocated for deportation prisons (Graebsch 2008), juvenile prisons (Schumann et al. 1981) or for womens prisons (Carlen 1990). | This means completely doing away with specific sectors of the prison system.

Obviously, these strategies are not mutually exclusive. They will have to be combined with "Anti-Funktionsarbeit", i.e. (Mathiesen 1989, 168 ff), i.e. creating a public discourse about the explicit and implicit functions of prisons.
