Summary |
"The Kansas University Quarterly: Vol. I, No. 4, April 1893" is a scientific publication released during the late 19th century. This edition features a discussion on penology in Kansas as well as a bibliography related to municipal government in the United States, indicating a focus on legal and sociological studies. The overarching theme appears to address the management and reform of penal institutions and broader governmental structures within the region. The opening of the publication presents a detailed analysis of the Kansas State Penitentiary, highlighting its self-sufficiency and economic management. The piece discusses the significant revenue generated from the prison's coal mine, the efficient employment of inmates, and the military discipline in place. It emphasizes the ideological evolution in penology, balancing societal protection, punishment, and the reform of criminals, arguing that modern penal institutions should aim to foster rehabilitation rather than merely serve as punitive environments. Additionally, there are insights into different penal systems and classifications of inmates and hints at a pressing need for reform in juvenile and adult correctional facilities in the context of broader societal development.
