在过去的十年里，监禁如何影响囚犯家庭成员的生活受到了学者们越来越多的关注。大多数的研究已经指出监禁对家庭生活造成了负面影响。然而，很少有人注意到监禁的抵消效应，特别是在服刑期间囚犯与家庭关系可能改善的情况下。我们将重点放在与监狱中年轻男性维持关系的主要照顾者身上，研究这些改善动态存在的方式和原因，并考虑监禁在帮助一些家庭在监狱受限的物理环境中重建与囚犯的关系方面可能发挥的作用。
How incarceration affects the lives of prisoners’ family members has received a growing level of interest amongst scholars during the past decade. The majority of research has pointed to the negative affects that incarceration wreaks on family lives. Yet, far less attention has been paid to the countervailing effects of incarceration, and in particular, cases where prisoner–family relations may improve during the sentence. Focusing on primary caregivers maintaining relations with young men in prison, we examine how and why these improvement dynamics exist, and consider what role incarceration may play in helping some families to rebuild relationships with prisoners in the restricted physical context of the prison.
