<P>Mobilities research is now centre stage in the social sciences with wide-ranging work that considers the politics underscoring the movements of people and objects, critically examining a world that is ever on the move. </P><P>At first glance, the words ¿carceral¿ and ¿mobilities¿ seem to sit uneasily together. This book challenges the assumption that carceral life is characterised by a lack of movement. <I>Carceral Mobilities</I> brings together contributions that speak to contemporary debates across carceral studies and mobilities research, offering fresh insights to both areas by identifying and unpicking the manifold mobilities that shape, and are shaped by, carceral regimes. It features four sections that move the reader through the varying typologies of motion underscoring carceral life: tension; circulation; distribution; and transition. Each mobilities-led section seeks to explore the politics encapsulated in specific regimes of carceral movement. </P><P>With contributions fr
