    In the 1960s-70s, the abolition of prisons was considered a desirable and viable policy option among a growing number of critical prison scholars and organizers. Penal system bureaucrats and their political masters in several western liberal democracies also sought a significant reduction in the use of incarceration. Yet, despite this rhetoric and the growth of alternatives to incarceration that ensued, prison populations in many parts of the world instead began to soar.It is in this context that Louk Hulsman, a founder of prison abolitionism, suggested that the abolition of prisons depended not on the creation of community-based sanctions, but on the abolition of criminalization and punishment as a way of thinking about and responding to 'crime'.While Hulsman's call for penal abolition became influential amongst scholars and activists, the complexity of his analysis and its origins have often been overlooked. In part, this is due to the fact that he unpacked his ideas in the greatest depth during a course of interviews with Jacqueline Bernat de Celis in Peines perdues : le système pénal en question (Le centurion, 1982).This edited anthology seeks to address this gap by providing the de Celis interviews in English for the first time and including reflections by academics, activists, politicians, policymakers, and practitioners analyzing the global impact of Louk Hulsman's life and work. In so doing, this project highlights the contemporary viability of abolitionism, along with the challenges faced by its proponents.

    VOLUME 32, Number 1 (2023) is a special issue of the Journal of Prisoners on Prisonson "Walls to Bridges" (W2B) edited by Shoshana Pollack (Wilfrid Laurier University) and Christine Mayor (University of Manitoba). The collection features articles by alumni and professors marking the 10th anniversary of W2B, which offers for-credit courses through universities and colleges taught within correctional settings across Canada where an equal number of incarcerated ("inside") students and university/college-based ("outside") students learn together as peers. The impact of the initiative behind and beyond prison walls, the role of collaborative learning and Indigenous ways of knowing, leadership by imprisoned people, and the experiences of anti-Black racism and colonization in and out of prison classrooms are just some of the themes addressed in this special issue. The collection also includes artwork by W2B alumni.
