虽然政策制定者和学者经常通过量化结果来衡量监狱教育项目的成功，如累犯率和释放后就业，但在这些项目如何促进社区建设、身份发展和代理方面，文献中存在空白。对于在美国被判终身监禁的159,000人，也许对于所有被监禁的人，我们需要一种新的方式来概念化监狱教育的目的。在这篇文章中，克林特·史密斯反思了他在马萨诸塞州州立监狱教授创意写作的经历，并质疑我们如何能够在监禁空间中创造更全面、更人性化的教育基础设施，超越工具主义和职业准备的项目，而是走向认知解放和人类尊严的复兴。
While policy makers and scholars often measure the success of prison education programs by quantitative outcomes such as recidivism and post-release employment, there is a gap in the literature with regard to how these programs facilitate community building, identity development, and agency. For the 159,000 people serving life sentences in the United States, and perhaps for all of those who are incarcerated, we need a new way of conceptualizing the purpose of education in prison. In this essay, Clint Smith reflects on his experience teaching creative writing in a Massachusetts state prison and questions how we might be able to create more holistic and humane educational infrastructures in incarcerated spaces, programs that move beyond instrumentalism and vocational preparation and instead toward cognitive liberation and a reclamation of human dignity.
