Affiliation: | Leo Carroll is Professor of Sociology at the University of Rhode Island. Serving as a correctional officer in the military sparked his interest in prisons, which has been the main focus of his research and teaching. His Hacks, Blacks and Cons: Race Relations in a Maximum Security Prison;(1974/1988) was the first major sociological study of race relations in a prison. A more recent book, Lawful Order: Correctional Crisis and Reform (1998/2000), examined the history of a court intervention from the development of the conditions that gave rise to it through its termination. It was recognized by the Academy of Criminal Justice Sciences as the outstanding book by one of its members in 2000. |
