From Mass Imprisonment to Abolition (USP): Unterschied zwischen den Versionen

Supermax and torture sites are not the whole picture. There are also "normal prisons", minimum security prisons, halfway houses, and even prisons, "where inmates are treated as people", sometimes referred to as resort prisons. A famous example is Bastøy prison in Norway (and another one may be the APAC prisons in Brazil). Imagine you are a prisoner convicted of murdering a loved one,] you are sentenced and sent to a prison that resides on an island, without being handcuffed, without cameras or weapons, with wooden cottages instead of jail cells, and dinner ranging from chicken to salmon prepared by inmates themselves. At first glance that may seem like a criminal’s distant fantasy, but in Oslo, Bastøy prison—which sits on an island 80 kilometres from the capital —offers a new perspective on how to treat criminals.
