Publication Type: Conference Paper/Unpublished Manuscript Abstract: It is now common practice to study prisons without prisoners. This was not always the case, particularly amongst social reaction theorists and radical criminologists in the 1960s and 1970s who constructed knowledge on imprisonment with prisoners. In the 1980s and 1990s, structural Marxist and Foucaultian criminologies displaced the voice of the prisoner as an authoritative voice in knowing ‘inside’. These theoretical traditions have moved us away from understanding the material reality of prison life and all its ‘messy actualities’. Such frameworks have acted as chains that serve to narrow our substantive and methodological focus. For those who ignore these self-imposed disciplinary constraints and attempt to conduct ethnographic research, their efforts to gain access to prisons are often blocked by authorities. The result: most critical criminologists interested in the study of imprisonment no longer know how prisoners experience criminalization and punishment. This paper will explore how this gap in knowledge was created and is being addressed by prison writers and convict criminologists. I conclude my paper with a discussion on how academics can collaborate with prisoners in an effort to bridge the ‘inside-out’ within a critical criminology oriented towards the study of prisons with prisoners.
