Monographic Part. The Notion of Resistance in an Interdisciplinary Perspective – Between Emancipation and Stagnation (Edited by Ewa Bielska): The Category of Resistance in Correctional Studies. The Area of Application

Summary/Abstract: In contrast with general educational studies, where resistance is mainly analyzed within the context of school environment, the category of resistance has been virtually absent in the field of social rehabilitation. The paper postulates the scope for using the category for studies on prison gangs. Considered in the context of resistance, the prison gang is a phenomenon that (1) stays in opposition to formal institutional structure, (2) comprises behaviors of ritualistic nature, and (3,) those behaviors undermine rehabilitative functions of the institution. An insight into the prison’s second life employs notions developed in contemporary reflections on resistance, especially ideas such as everyday resistance, infrapolitics as well as transcripts, both hidden and public.
