Does local context matter? Unemployment rates and the labor market consequences of incarceration
A robust body of research finds that incarceration jeopardizes post-release employment and earnings, and that these challenges are magnified for formerly incarcerated Black and Hispanic Americans relative to White Americans. Life course theory is often used to conceptualize the impact of a spell of incarceration, but the theory's contextual component has been overlooked despite geographic variation in labor market opportunities. Place is also str…
Race, Gender, and Police Violence in the Shadow of Controlling Images
Despite the emergence of the #SayHerName movement alongside #BlackLivesMatter, research on police encounters is rarely intersectional and has largely neglected the potentially violent consequences of gendered and racialized 'controlling images.' Using New York City investigatory stop data (2007-2014), and drawing on controlling images theory, our analysis shows that Black men and women experience higher rates of police violence than White men and…
Democracy for whom? How criminal punishment marginalizes the political voices of Black and Brown Americans
U.S. racialized punishment practices have long harmed communities of color in sundry ways, including access to democratic processes. Synthesizing scholarship on punishment and democracy that centers the lived experiences and political subjectivities of Black and Brown Americans, we argue that criminal punishment is a powerful form of political marginalization that diminishes the political voices of Black and Brown Americans en masse and simultane…
Criminal Justice Contact, Residential Independence, and Returns to the Parental Home
Objective The authors investigate whether criminal justice contact is associated with residential transitions—both home‐leaving and home‐returning—among contemporary young adults. Background More young adults live with their parents today than live independently. Despite the prevalence of criminal justice contact among young Americans, and research suggesting that such contact can reshape the life course, it is unknown whether the criminal justic…
The Slow Violence of Contemporary Policing
An estimated 61.5 million Americans encounter police annually and more than one million are threatened or subjected to police use of force during these encounters. Much research exists on the efficacy for crime control of the policing practices that produce those encounters, but outside of formal consequences such as incarceration, the criminology of police harms has been slower to emerge. In this review, we describe the slow violence that contem…
Homelessness among Formerly Incarcerated Men
This study investigates patterns of homeless shelter use among formerly incarcerated men for nearly eight years postrelease and risk factors associated with pattern variation. I use life course theory and administrative data from Pennsylvania to identify four distinct forms of homelessness among formerly incarcerated men: persistent homelessness beginning soon after release, a short spell of homelessness years after release, long periods of homel…
Linkages Between Incarceration and Health
The dramatic expansion of the US penal system during the past 4 decades has led to an increase in adverse health conditions that affect an unprecedented number of individuals. This article first provides an overview of the literature on the immediate and lasting associations between incarceration and physical health, highlighting the diverse health conditions linked with incarceration, including health functioning, infectious disease, chronic con…
Stop, Frisk, and Assault? Racial Disparities in Police Use of Force During Investigatory Stops
Black civilians are more likely to be stopped by police than white civilians net of relevant factors. Less is known about whether or not racial inequalities exist in police use of force during stops. Using data on over 2 million police stops in New York City from 2007 to 2014 and drawing on literatures on race, policing, and the Black Lives Matter movement, we test hypotheses regarding the associations between race, civilian behavior, age, and po…
Race, Space, and Surveillance
Ethnographies of young men of color offer competing theories regarding how individuals react to criminal justice contact. System avoidance theory suggests that black and Latino men in segregated neighborhoods avoid formal institutions because of fear of surveillance, while Rios contends that they frame their criminal justice contact as a racial injustice and become activists. Using data from the National Longitudinal Survey of Adolescent to Adult…
Shifting Power
While prisoners cannot vote, they are counted as residents of the often rural legislative districts where they are incarcerated rather than their home districts. We examine the extent to which incarceration shifts the balance of a representative democracy by considering its impact on legislative apportionment. Drawing on data from the Census, Pennsylvania Department of Corrections, and Pennsylvania Redistricting Commission, we develop a counterfa…
Self-Control and the Depression-Delinquency Link
Research has repeatedly documented the link between depression and delinquency; however, why they are associated remains less clear. Blending diverse research traditions in criminology and psychology, this study suggests that self-control may explain the depression–delinquency association. By conceptualizing self-control as a depletable resource influenced by internal factors, experiencing depressive symptoms may reduce self-control, which in tur…
Stigma or Separation? Understanding the Incarceration-Divorce Relationship
Prior research suggests a correlation between incarceration and marital dissolution, although questions remain as to why this association exists. Is it the stigma associated with “doing time” that drives couples apart? Or is it simply the duration of physical separation that leads to divorce? This research utilizes data from the National Longitudinal Survey of Youth (NLSY79) and the Survey of Officer and Enlisted Personnel to shed light on these …
