This book explores the profound transformations that prisons and offender rehabilitation programmes in Eastern Germany have undergone with respect to religion. Drawing on participant observation and interviews of inmates, ex-prisoners, chaplains and prison visitors, this book connects the institutional to individual: focusing on the religious changes individuals experience when they are imprisoned and released. Becci also explores the difficulties faced by released people in keeping their religious life alive under the harsh conditions of social stigma in a highly secular outside society.

This book examines how prisons meet challenges of religious diversity, in an era of increasing multiculturalism and globalization. Social scientists studying corrections have noted the important role that religious or spiritual practice can have on rehabilitation. In the past, the historical figure of the prison chaplain operated primarily in a Christian context, following primarily a Christian model. Increasingly, prison populations (inmates as well as employees) display diversity in their ethnic, cultural, religious and geographic backgrounds. As public institutions, prisons are compelled to uphold the human rights of their inmates, including religious freedom. Prisons face challenges in approaching religious plurality and secularism, and maintaining prisoners' legal rights to religious freedom. The contributions to this work present case studies that examine how prisons throughout Europe have approached challenges of religious diversity. Featuring contributions from the UK, France, Italy, Germany, Switzerland, The Netherlands, Belgium and Spain, this interdisciplinary volume includes contributions from social and political scientists, religion scholars and philosophers examining the role of religion and religious diversity in prison rehabilitation. It will be of interest to researchers in Criminology and Criminal Justice, Social and Political Science, Human Rights, Public Policy, and Religious Studies.

Quand des anthropologues, des historiennes et des psychologues investissent le thème des transgressions corporelles et symboliques cadrées par des rituels avec un nouveau regard, le résultat peut surprendre. C'est ce que fait ce livre qui se sert notamment des outils venant des approches queer. Le cadrage religieux, mythique ou cosmologique qui organise l'expérience de l'ambiguïté? (des pratiques, des catégories), permet de voir dans les transgressions de normes genrées des choix et non seulement des punitions ou des déviances tolérées. En traitant de cas éloignés du point de vue de leur contexte historique et culturel – des biberons antiques, des eunuques romains et indiens, des travestis urbains contemporains, un portrait médiéval, le culte d'une prostituée de la Rome antique, les images d'enfants dessinant Dieu – les différentes études rassemblées dans ce livre présentent la manière dont des pratiques sexuelles et corporelles transgressent l'ordre social et sont cadrées par des registres religieux, rituels ou queer qui se proposent comme cadre alternatif à l'ordre habituel.

Les contributions réunies ici montrent bien que le religieux fait partie du social ; parfois il l'encadre, parfois il en est le produit. Le religieux est partie intégrante des conditions de vie des femmes, non seulement une cause, mais aussi un possible levier pour les changer. L'examen des stratégies féministes que certaines déploient dans divers contextes religieux rend visibles et lisibles les marges de manœuvre qui existent dans les espaces religieux, même lorsque ceux-ci sont très institutionnalisés et codifiés. Au bout du compte, ce numéro suggère que le féminisme peut dépasser les frontières entre le monde religieux et le monde séculier, celles-ci étant bien plus poreuses que veulent nous le faire croire les fondamentalistes.
