Abstract
Why does prison social order vary around the world? While many of the basiccharacteristics of prisons are similar globally, the extent and form of informalinmate organization varies substantially. This article develops a governancetheory of prison social order. Inmates create extralegal governance institutionswhen official governance is insufficient. The size and demographics of theprison population explain why inmates produce extralegal governance institutionsin either decentralized ways, such as ostracism, or through more centralizedforms, such as gangs. Comparative analysis of Brazil, Bolivia, England,Scandinavia, and men's and women's prisons in California provideempirical support.
