- Dr Karamalidou’s 221 page book is based on a sustained research effort for and beyond her doctoral research thesis. Through a multi-layered process of creative investigation, it compares English and Dutch penal policy, exploring the impact of human rights litigation and practice on European penal discourse and prison reform. The book documents the important role of the Council of Europe in the legalisation of prisoners’ human rights and draws upon prisoner voices, setting a blueprint of advancing prisoner rights in the context of new risk and security discourses attendant upon neo-liberalism, fear of crime and threat of terror.
