TY - JOUR PY - 1979// TI - A comparative exploration of prison discipline JO - Journal of criminal justice A1 - Dauber, Edward A1 - Shichor, David SP - 21 EP - 36 VL - 7 IS - 1 N2 - The maintenance of a sufficient level of discipline in correctional institutions, without abandoning the due process principle, is an important organizational problem that warrants theoretical and empirical research. In this study, the formal disciplinary procedures of the Ramle prison in Israel were explored, described, and compared with those of the Rhode Island State Prison. Generally, it was found that the disciplinary process in Ramle was more flexible and relaxed than the similar process in Rhode Island. The possible advantages and disadvantages of the two systems are compared and reviewed.
