What do Russian prisons look like? Who is sent to prison in Russia? How is punishment allocated and administered? This pioneering book aims to answer these and other questions by embarking on a journey that begins by exploring how the prisons have survived the collapse of the USSR, and ends with a discussion of global penal politics. It is the first book to have been written in English on penal practices in the contemporary Russian prison system. Surviving Russian Prisons focuses in particular on the reality of work and labour within Russian prisons, exploring its changing function. From being for much of the twentieth century a major activity as well as an ideological justification for prison regimes, its main function now has been to enable prisoners to survive through participating in a barter economy. In exploring the microworlds of the Russian prison this book at the same time presents new evidence and offers fresh insight into how prisons are governed in societies undergoing turbulent social and political transformation; it explores how current practices in relation to prisoners' work comply with international regulations designed to promote humane containment and positive custody; and debates the nature of knowledge on penal discourse in transitional states.

The Russian oil mogul and activist offers reflections on his decades-long incarceration under Putin in this “illuminating and brave” prison memoir (The Washington Post). Mikhail Khodorkovsky was Russia’s most successful businessman—and an outspoken critic of the Kremlin. As his oil company Yukos revived the Russian oil industry, Khodorkovsky began sponsoring programs to encourage civil society and fight corruption. Then he was arrested at gunpoint. Sentenced to ten years in a Siberian penal colony on fraud and tax evasion charges in 2003, Khodorkovsky was put on trial again in 2010 and sentenced to fourteen years on new charges that contradicted the previous ones. While imprisoned, Khodorkovsky fought for the rights of his fellow prisoners, going on hunger strike four times. After he was pardoned in 2013, he vowed to continue fighting for prisoners’ rights, and this book is dedicated to that work. A moving portrait of the prisoners Khodorkovsky met, My Fellow Prisoners is an eye-opening account of Russia’s brutal prison system. “Vivid, humane and poignant” —Financial Times

Excerpt from Prisoners of Russia: A Personal Study of Convict Life in Sakhalin and Siberia Dr. Benjamin Douglas Howard, who in this volume chronicles the results of a series of special and valuable studies of Siberian prison life, especially in the far-distant and almost unknown island prison of Sakhalin, was born at Chesham, Bucks, England, March 21, 1836, His father, Thomas Howard, was a manufacturer of woodenware, one of the staple trades of Chesham, an honourable man, and a Baptist of the straightest Calvinistic school, being a member of the Church of Townfield, Chesham. Thomas had five children - Mary, Samuel, Caroline, Benjamin, and Ephraim. His wife dying while the children were young, the father brought them up with a strictness bordering on severity. At his death, Benjamin and the younger brother Ephraim were cared for by their guardians, Mr. S. Stone and Mrs. Birch, of Blucher Street, Chesham, at whose house Benjamin lived.
