TOCH LIBRARY

Most of the books in Hans Toch’s library are heavily marked up. This makes them worthless monetarily, but a treasure to see what he considered significant in the many classics in his library. Many are written by his former students.

Partial Justice: Women, Prisons, and Social Control Second Edition

By Nicole Hahn Rafter

FROM THE PREFACE: “Prisons fascinate the societies that create them because--short of the death penalty--they are the ultimate form and symbol of the power of the state over the individual. In the imagery that mesmerizes us, prisoners arc anonymous masses controlled by walls, steel bars, and impersonal guards. Their fearsome punishment, suffered cqually by all, is loss of liberty. This book addresses the limitations of this powerful but simplistic image.”
