Chapter 1: Introduction: Cultural Forces, Economic Pressures and Discriminatory Laws -- Chapter 2: Feminist theories about criminology -- Chapter 3: COVID-19 and Women: Incarceration, Economic Pressure, Medical Facilities, and Health Issues -- Chapter 4: Women in the criminal justice system, Research Methodology, Case Studies -- Chapter 5: Women, Crime and Media, global and Pakistani Context -- Chapter 6: Violence against women in prison behavior of jail officials, class differences within women prisoners versus prisoner -- Chapter 7: Women and social relationships in prison behaviors of sibling's family issues.

This book examines the female criminals and the prison conditions and issues they must endure through the lens of a case study in the Karachi women's prison in Pakistan. With higher events of crime and poverty due to COVID-19, this volume considers the worsening conditions for women inmates as it relates to psychological trauma, access to resources, economic factors, and working against the cultural forces and criminal justice forces that contribute to the unstable state of women's prisons. Addressing a gap in literature about female inmates in South Asia and Pakistan this volume is ideal for researchers in feminist criminology, women's studies, prisoner psychology, and for law enforcement agencies.
