Interrupting Intergenerational Offending in the Context of America’s Social Disaster of Mass Imprisonment

As the US criminal justice system has grown in parallel over the last few decades, the number of American families experiencing social disasters in which parents and their children are imprisoned is increasing. In order to investigate the factors that may cause crime propagation and imprisonment among generations, we use the perspective of life history and position the development of antisocial behavior as the era of collective imprisonment. In doing so, we will learn from literature on disaster sociology and study ways to understand and improve trauma related to intergenerational imprisonment through appropriate policies and interventions. Combined with factors that promote resilience and recovery, we believe that it is possible to better judge the risk factors of antisocial behavior, such as prenatal mother stress, trauma exposure, abnormal peer group etc. It is. This includes improving safety, self-efficacy and connectivity to prevent intergenerational crime and imprisonment and promote resistance. By making collective imprisonation a social disaster, a multifaceted and comprehensive approach has new urgency to reduce the epidemic and imprisonment of intergenerational crime in millions of families in the United States.

We assume how strong inferior indicators are among generations in heredity, and how they accumulate among generations. I am using high quality registration data from Finland (n = 157 135)
