Sinopsis

Prison Food explores the often-overlooked aspect of incarceration: the meals served to inmates. This book argues that what prisoners eat reflects a society's values concerning social justice and human rights. Delving into culinary history, it reveals how penal diets have evolved and highlights the stark reality that food in prisons is more than just sustenance; it's a measure of ethical standards. Did you know that the quality of prison meals can directly impact inmate behavior and rehabilitation potential? Also, the book sheds light on how prison food intersects with broader issues of social inequality and healthcare access.

 
The book takes a holistic approach, blending historical analysis with contemporary research. It begins by outlining the basic concepts of prison food systems, then analyzes how diets have been shaped by social attitudes and economic conditions across different periods and countries, from early workhouses to modern correctional facilities. Later chapters compare prison food policies globally and examine efforts to reform these systems. By using varied sources like inmate testimonials and governmental reports, Prison Food challenges assumptions about justice and human dignity.
