Bien des philanthropes, depuis la création de la prison, luttent pour une amélioration du sort des détenus. C'est d'ailleurs la moindre des choses. On peut indéfiniment réformer et reformer ainsi la prison. On peut aussi vouloir son abolition, sa suppression pure et simple. Comme on a supprimé les tortures de l'arsenal pénal. Elle est un supplice, au même titre que la goutte d'eau sur le crâne et tous les supplices du même genre qui visent l'énervement. Elle repose sur l'idée qu'elle doit être dégradante et humiliante: au sens le plus littéral du terme, elle se veut une peine infamante. Les modernes, malgré les concessions au populisme d'aujourd'hui sur le "tout sécuritaire ", s'accordent à la trouver archaïque. Mais on peut s'attendre à ce qu'elle soit remplacée par quelque chose de pire. C'est pourquoi la question essentielle n'est pas celle du comment, mais du pourquoi. Pourquoi punir ? Pourquoi faudrait-il punir ?

This electronic version has been made available under a Creative Commons (BY-NC-ND) open access license. This is the first book to situate the territories and collective identities of former Yugoslavia within the politics of race - not just ethnicity - and the history of how ideas of racialised difference have been translated globally. The book connects critical race scholarship, global historical sociologies of 'race in translation' and south-east European cultural critique to show that the Yugoslav region is deeply embedded in global formations of race. In doing this, it considers the everyday geopolitical imagination of popular culture; the history of ethnicity, nationhood and migration; transnational formations of race before and during state socialism, including the Non-Aligned Movement; and post-Yugoslav discourses of security, migration, terrorism and international intervention, including the War on Terror and the present refugee crisis.

The Yugoslav wars of the 1990s involved the violent destruction of a society in the midst of the collapse of state socialism. The moment war broke out, academic and public debates began, concerning the long- and short-term causes of the wars and where responsibility should lie. Not only do these controversies continue - even coming up against each other in courts of law - but fresh areas of debate have emerged, which historians must take into account. Catherine Baker brings together the major arguments of the most up-to-date scholarship on the Yugoslav wars. This book provides a clear introduction to the topic and demonstrates how debates have evolved, and where more research is required. Alongside this, Baker also exposes the politics and complexities of narrating and interpreting the very recent past.--
