本文调查了有关拘留、监禁和监禁的新兴地理学研究的现状。监狱和拘留中心的地点和形式差异很大，但都在未经其他人同意的情况下关押人。我们首先调查监狱的地理研究，其次调查拘留中心的地理研究。然后我们认为，这项地理研究为监禁和拘留的研究提供了三个主要贡献。首先，分析这些机构的空间实践（空间和时间的秩序）为理解社会、文化和经济关系的物质性提供了一个富有成效的框架。其次，这项研究为国家应对贸易、移民、战争和安全全球化提供了重要视角。第三，拘留和监禁是排他性言论的产生场所。最后，我们敦促地理学家深入思考拘留中心之外拘留的不确定性如何发挥作用，对监禁的隐性价值保持警惕，并认真对待监禁行业的全球扩张。
This article surveys the state of emerging geographic research on detention, imprisonment, and confinement. Prisons and detention centers vary widely in location and form, but all hold human beings without consent by other human beings. We first survey geographical research on prisons and, second, on detention centers. We then argue that this geographic research offers three primary contributions to the study of imprisonment and detention. First, analyzing the spatial practices (the ordering of space and time) of these institutions provides a productive framework for understanding the materiality of social, cultural, and economic relationships. Second, this research provides an important perspective on state responses to the globalization of trade, migration, war, and security. Third, detention and imprisonment are productive sites for exclusionary discourses. In closing, we urge geographers to think deeply about how detention's indeterminacy works beyond the detention center, to be wary of implicit valorizations of imprisonment, and to take seriously the global expansion of the confinement industry.
