Review # 1 was written on 2019-02-15 00:00:00 Tammy Liechty I basically really really loved this book. I appreciated how careful she was in constructing arguments almost as if anticipating the usual responses you get when you talk about abolition. I really loved the investigation of Oz/pop culture in general and the parallels she draws between pedagogical theorising and the PIC. This is a great book which you should definitely read if you get the chance.

Review # 2 was written on 2015-03-23 00:00:00 Paul Ling so far, so fucking on point. and despite not being under any illusions about my potential future in CPS, it is still disconcerting to read as a pre-service teacher. being a teacher is, in part, being complicit in the prison industrial complex. as meiners says, "...the profession of teaching, myself included, is complicit in the construction and maintenance of systems of structural violence, and a kind of 'soft extension' of the security or the prison state" (p. 4-5). further, "...this book project also extends this conception of public enemies to examine, more broadly, EDUCATION'S INVESTMENTS IN PRODUCING 'PUBLIC ENEMIES" (p. 5). book group?
