Short description:
This book - as probably nearly all endeavours of this kind - is a compromise. The first part of this book after the words of welcome by the Schleswig-Holstein Minister of Justice contains a review of the most relevant literature for this project. It is neither an annotated bibliography nor a summarizing article, but something in between.
The second part deals with theoretical perspectives. Martin Hagenmaier, the pastor of the Kiel prison, puts himself into the position of an inmate. From this life world experience he keeps an eye on coping with imprisonment but also with the fact of being responsible for the suffering of some victims. Hagenmaier links some theological convictions (basic knowledge, insights, wisdom) with RJ basics which lead us to reconsider classic texts of Foucault and Goffman.
