  • Race, Grievance Systems, and Prisoners' Perceptions of Justice In
    POLICIES, POLITICS, AND THE PLIGHT OF RACE AND ETHNIC GROUPS RACE, GRIEVANCE SYSTEMS, AND PRISONERS’ PERCEPTIONS OF JUSTICE IN THREE CALIFORNIA PRISONS Kitty Calavita Department of Criminology, Law and Society University of California, Irvine Valerie Jenness Department of Criminology, Law and Society University of California, Irvine Abstract A large body of social science consistently documents race differences in the U.S. criminal justice system and in related perceptions of justice. It is now beyond dispute that the criminal justice system is racialized in a plethora of ways that have consequences for how people perceive justice. Another vast body of literature documents the importance of perceptions of procedural justice in people’s satisfaction with dispute management and outcomes. Informed by these two well-established literatures, we draw on original quantitative and qualitative data, including a random sample of interviews with 120 men in three California prisons, to present an empirical analysis of prisoners’ experiences with the prisoner grievance system, their level of satisfaction with the process and outcomes of that system, and their perceptions of fairness. We find an absence of race effects regarding how fairly they say they have been treated in the past by the criminal justice system and in how they assess justice in the prisoner grievance system in particular. Specifically, we find that: 1) male prisoners’ perceptions of whether the overall criminal justice system has been fair to them in the past does not vary by race in statistically significant ways; and 2) the dominance of substantive grievance outcomes over procedural elements in prisoners’ satisfaction holds regardless of racial self-identification.

  • “It Depends on the Outcome”: Prisoners, Grievances, and Perceptions of Justice
    41 “It Depends on the Outcome”: Prisoners, Grievances, and Perceptions of Justice Valerie Jenness Kitty Calavita Social scientists have long investigated the social, cultural, and psychological forces that shape perceptions of fairness. A vast literature on procedural justice advances a central finding: the process by which a dispute is played out is cen- tral to people’s perceptions of fairness and their satisfaction with dispute out- comes. There is, however, one glaring gap in the literature. In this era of mass incarceration, studies of how the incarcerated weigh procedural justice versus substantive justice are rare. This article addresses this gap by drawing on unique quantitative and qualitative data, including face-to-face interviews with a random sample of men incarcerated in three California prisons and official data provided by the California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation (CDCR). Our mixed-methods analysis reveals that these prisoners privilege the actual outcomes of disputes as their barometer of justice. We argue that the dominance of substantive outcomes in these men’s perceptions of fairness and in their dispute satisfaction is grounded in, among other things, the high stakes of the prison context, an argument that is confirmed by our data. These findings do not refute the importance of procedural justice, but show the power of institutional context to structure perceptions of and responses to fair- ness, one of the most fundamental principles of social life. A sense of fairness is fundamental to the human condition and plays a significant role in modern social, economic, and political This research was funded by the Law and Social Science Program and the Sociology Program, National Science Foundation (SES-0849731).

The Author(s) 2016 Reprints and permissions: sagepub.co.uk/journalsPermissions.nav Collective identity and DOI: 10.1177/1462474516642859 collective efficacy among pun.sagepub.com transgender women in prisons for men Lori Sexton University of Missouri, USA Valerie Jenness University of California, USA Abstract Recognizing that prisons house diverse populations in equally diverse types of environ- ments, we utilize a unique data set and employ two well-known sociological con- cepts—collective identity and collective efficacy—to examine overlapping communities in which transgender women in prisons for men are situated and experi- ence prison life. Findings from our mixed-methods analysis reveal that despite their considerable diversity, transgender prisoners embrace a collective identity and perceive collective efficacy as transgender prisoners more so than as prisoners per se; their collect- ive identity and perceptions of collective efficacy are predicated on social-interactional factors rather than demographic characteristics and physical features of the carceral environment; and the more time a transgender inmate spends in prison, the more likely she is to identify with a community of transgender prisoners, but the less likely she is to feel an affective commitment to the transgender prisoner community or to expect other transgender prisoners to act on her behalf in prison. This novel application of dynamics generally understood to operate in social movements and residential neigh- borhoods—collective identity and collective efficacy, respectively—to the transgender community in California’s prisons sheds insight into the ways in which transgender women in prisons for men experience prison life, the loyalties around which prison life is organized, and the complexities around which communities in prison are structured.

  • Protecting Californians from Hate Crimes: a Progress Report
    Protecting Californians from Hate Crimes: A Progress Report California Senate Office of Research August 2004 August 2004 Dear Senate and Assembly Colleagues: Hate crimes, like any form of terrorism, are triply harmful. • They hurt the immediate victims by inflicting loss and pain, the same as any violent crime. • They attack the immediate victim’s very identity, often causing more severe and longer-lasting trauma than similar violent crimes committed for other reasons. • They terrorize everyone in the communities they target. We saw this most clearly on September 11, 2001 – the day of what probably was the largest single hate crime in United States history, attacking and traumatizing all Americans because of our identity. This report gives us a picture of hate crime in California today and the extensive and continuing steps we have taken against it. We learn that our state is a national leader in fighting hate crimes, and that our efforts have produced significant, measurable successes. We also learn about our sometimes major failures and continuing problems, and are presented with a wide variety of concrete options for action. Please join me in weighing the evidence and options – and taking action to expand our efforts to protect all Californians from hate crimes.
