Alternative to jails needed
By Casper Lötter - 17 June 2017
If ordinary people, such as the readers of this broadsheet, can be encouraged to think about the prison-industrial-complex in new ways, such as those outlined here, we are making progress towards a less punitive, more caring, society. Sensible evidence-based policy should always be preferable over that of corruption-fuelled vested interests.
