- This book investigates the specifically gendered character of the disciplining of poor and marginalised sectors of the population in considerable depth. It presents a complex analysis that uses evidence from two different policy areas (welfare and criminal justice) in three different countries (Canada, the United Kingdom, and the United States) over a long period of time (from the sixteenth to the twenty first century). In order to do so it draws on a wide range of scholarly sources, historical documents, and statistics, offering unique critical insight into this theme in a variety of different contexts.
