Embedding Staff Conflict

Embedding Staff Conflict - 2016.
72
Following a revision of the Swiss criminal code, a number of therapeutic units have opened in Swiss prisons. This has led to an influx of psychiatric staff into prisons and tensions between psychiatric staff and custody officers. Using ethnographic field notes and interviews, the therapy-critical discourse of custody officers is shown to be tied to broad cultural discourses as well as to the specific field of relations within the prison. Custody officers struggle to preserve local symbolic orders and use security discourse as a form of symbolic capital to challenge psychiatric symbolic capital.
