Responsibilisation and female imprisonment in contemporary penal policy: ‘Respect Modules’ (‘Módulos de Respeto’) in Spain

Abstract: In order to advance the study of female penal enforcement in the 21st century, this article examines how new strategies of neoliberal penal governance, introduced over the past decade in Spain, take shape in everyday practices and dynamics of prison life, as well as examining intersections with traditional forms of punishment and discipline.

“…These include: the impact of macro prisons, which limit social and family contacts, as they are located far from cities; the clear minority representation of women (Almeda, 2002); the over-representation of and discrimination against certain groups, such as foreigners (Miranda et al, 2005;Ribas et al, 2005;Ruiz-García and Castillo-Algarra, 2014) and the Roma population (Barañí Team, 2001;; and the particularities of drug users (De Miguel Calvo, 2016).

“…Finally, the frame of individuals as productive members of the economy and society was put into practice by prioritising such programmes as Respect Modules.
