Der Straf- und Massnahmenvollzug spielt sich heutzutage weitgehend unsichtbar innerhalb der Institutionen ab. Dieses Buch richtet den Blick direkt auf die Mitarbeitenden hinter den Mauern und auf ihre berufliche Identität. Wie gehen Mitarbeitende mit den vielfältigen Erwartungen an den Vollzug und mit den Widersprüchen ihrer Aufgabe um? Welches Verhältnis haben sie zu den Gefangenen, zu Resozialisierung und zu staatlichem Strafen? Christopher Young rekonstruiert sorgfältig die narrativen Identitäten der Mitarbeitenden und setzt sie in Bezug zu historischen und aktuellen Diskursen. Er zeichnet nach, wie sich das Feld der Strafjustiz seit dem 19. Jahrhundert verändert hat und wie repressive und pädagogisch-inklusive Positionen in Konkurrenz standen. Auseinandersetzungen um das Strafrecht, die Entwicklung der Gefangenenzahlen in der Schweiz und die Politisierung der Strafjustiz werden diskutiert und die populistischen Narrative, welche in der aktuellen medialen Berichterstattung zum Strafvollzug dominieren, rekonstruiert. Die Studie leistet einen Beitrag zur qualitativen Forschung über den Strafvollzug in der Schweiz und kombiniert Interviewanalyse, ethnographische Methoden und eine diskursanalytische Analyse der gesellschaftlichen Felder, in die der Strafvollzug eingebettet ist.

The title of this book, Advances in Optical and Photonic Devices, encompasses a broad range of theory and applications which are of interest for diverse classes of optical and photonic devices. Unquestionably, recent successful achievements in modern optical communications and multifunctional systems have been accomplished based on composing “building blocks” of a variety of optical and photonic devices. Thus, the grasp of current trends and needs in device technology would be useful for further development of such a range of relative applications. The book is going to be a collection of contemporary researches and developments of various devices and structures in the area of optics and photonics. It is composed of 17 excellent chapters covering fundamental theory, physical operation mechanisms, fabrication and measurement techniques, and application examples. Besides, it contains comprehensive reviews of recent trends and advancements in the field. First six chapters are especially focused on diverse aspects of recent developments of lasers and related technologies, while the later chapters deal with various optical and photonic devices including waveguides, filters, oscillators, isolators, photodiodes, photomultipliers, microcavities, and so on. Although the book is a collected edition of specific technological issues, I strongly believe that the readers can obtain generous and overall ideas and knowledge of the state-of-the-art technologies in optical and photonic devices. Lastly, special words of thanks should go to all the scientists and engineers who have devoted a great deal of time to writing excellent chapters in this book.
