Systemic Reform
What Is a Prison Camp For? Replacing unnecessary federal confinement with accountable community sentences
What this paper examines
Submitted to SSRN; awaiting review. Proposes a limited federal pilot comparing imprisonment with funded, enforceable community sentencing plans. Safety, victim repayment, family responsibilities and public expenditure would be evaluated rather than assumed to improve. Camp capacity would decline only as the need for confinement declines.
