This term is not consistently used, however, and now is typically characterized as a form of restrictive housing. The …
What is “prison culture”? Developing a theoretical and methodological foundation for understanding cultural schema in prison
What does it mean to say that a prison has a “culture?” Scholars have long emphasized the presence of a “prison code” and, more recently, a “racial code” as salient cultural domains in men's prisons.

In other words, stormwater management has effectively been cast as a system of syst…
