Drug Abuse in the Prison Population : Since the
1980s,
concern for the role that substance abuse plays in crime and
recidivism has gained national attention. A number of studies
have been conducted to consider the problem of substance
abuse and crime, especially in criminal populations, but few
studies have been conducted to consider whether in-house
substance abuse treatment programs in the prison setting
actually reduce recidivism. This 5 page review of literature
provides an overview of arguments that correlate substance
abuse and repetitive criminal behaviors, and also relates the
findings of a few studies which reflect the connection between
substance abuse programming and reductions in recidivism.

Prison Violence : A
14 page paper discussing the problem of
violence in American prisons. Obviously violence exists within
our prison systems, for if it didnt there would perhaps, be no
prison system. But the issues involved may differ greatly in
some areas. For example, this paper addresses the issues which
involve the actual problems, which are in existence on the part
of the prison guards as well as the prisoners. While most people
assume the violence is only on the part of the prisoner,
California, as is illustrated herein, proves otherwise. In addition
to discussing the problems this paper discusses some possible
causes behind the problem and then also discusses some of the
possible solutions to the problem of violence in our prison
system, education seemingly the key to success. An outline
follows the bibliography. Bibliography lists 8 sources.
