This episode will discuss two different sociological theories: Foucault’s Panopticon and the idea of a Moral Panic. We’ll explore Foucault’s ideas about how the modern prison represented the state’s control over the individual. We’ll also look at how moral panic politics fuel national fears about crime, leading to the expansion of the prison state. Find out more at reformedpodcast.podbean.com.
