“…Incentives to feign mental or physical illness include the possibility of avoiding legal proceedings by being deemed incompetent to stand trial, avoiding criminal responsibility, the opportunity to obtain preferable accommodation changes, and the opportunity to obtain prescription medications for personal recreational use and as "currency" between prisoners (some prescription medications are highly desirable within prisons, particularly opiate analgesics and sedatives). 4,23 ' Taking all prisoners' accounts of pain at face value and prescribing strong painkillers in response may not be in their best interests, possibly exposing them to unnecessary side effects and facilitating addiction.…”

“…Notwithstanding variations in individual tolerance and environmental and contextual factors, there are consistent research findings on the health effects of solitary confinement throughout the decades, which demonstrate negative health effects. 62 Moreover, the use of isolation may increase disruptive behavior and enhance the likelihood of recidivism, 63 and from a terrorism perspective, it may act to reinforce the psychology of exclusivity and "martyrdom" among terrorist inmates. 64 As an alternative to isolation, the concentration of terrorist inmates (as a group) into a separate area of a prison away from the general prison population is a practice used to house ASG inmates by the BJMP in the SICA at the MMDJ.…”

Operations to counterterrorism in the southern Philippines have resulted in the arrest and incarceration of a significant number of key militants. As a result, the Philippine government has expressed concern that these inmates may radicalize others and continue to operate while incarcerated. As a preventive measure, the government has considered a number of "soft" counterstrategies, including the development of a de-radicalization program. To study the feasibility of running such a program in the Philippine corrective system, this article examines two interrelated areas of enquiry concerning how terrorist inmates are housed and whether prison gangs foster or discourage radicalization in the Philippine prison system. Initial findings suggest that the integration of terrorist inmates with prison gangs may temporarily encourage disengagement and set the foundations for de-radicalization. However, without a specifically designed intervention strategy, the terrorist inmates may revert to militancy once they have returned to their original social settings.Counterterrorism operations conducted by the Armed Forces of the Philippines (AFP) and the Philippine National Police (PNP) to dismantle militant groups in the Philippines have resulted in the arrest and detention of a significant number of individuals, many of whom are now held in the Philippine correctional system. As a result of the imprisonment of these individuals, the Philippine government is concerned that these terrorist inmates will use their time while incarcerated to radicalize others and recruit new members to join their militant cause.

This paper uncovers a distinctively social type of injustice that lies in the kinds of wrongs we can do to each other specifically as social beings. In this paper, social injustice is not principally about unfair distributions of socioeconomic goods among citizens. Instead, it is about the ways we can violate each other's fundamental rights to lead socially integrated lives in close proximity and relationship with other people. This paper homes in on a particular type of social injustice, which we can call social contribution injustice. The paper identifies two distinct forms of social contribution injustice. The first form involves compromising a person's social resources so as to deny her adequate scope to contribute socially. The second form involves unjustly misvaluing a person as a social contributor, usually by not taking her seriously as a social contributor.
