Observations On The Separate System Of Discipline Submitted To The Congress Assembled At Brussells, On The Subject Of Prison Reform (1847)

""Observations On The Separate System Of Discipline Submitted To The Congress Assembled At Brussells, On The Subject Of Prison Reform"" is a book written by Joshua Jebb in 1847. The book provides a thorough analysis of the separate system of discipline, which is a prison reform approach that involves isolating prisoners from each other to prevent them from communicating and engaging in criminal activities. Jebb argues that the separate system is a more effective way of rehabilitating prisoners and reducing recidivism rates compared to other prison reform approaches. The book is divided into several chapters, each of which discusses a different aspect of the separate system. Jebb examines the history of the separate system, its implementation in various countries, and its impact on prisoners' mental and physical health. He also discusses the practicalities of implementing the separate system, including the design of prison buildings and the training of prison staff. Jebb's arguments are supported by statistical data and case studies from various countries that have implemented the separate system. He also addresses criticisms of the separate system, such as concerns about its cost and the potential for prisoners to become mentally unstable due to isolation. Overall, ""Observations On The Separate System Of Discipline Submitted To The Congress Assembled At Brussells, On The Subject Of Prison Reform"" is a comprehensive and well-researched book that provides a detailed analysis of the separate system of discipline. It is a valuable resource for anyone interested in prison reform and the history of criminal justice.On September 20, 1847.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
