Examines the issues arising in a small-scale society where numerous features of the free community have been drastically changed:
- Activity of work transfigured by realities of prison servitude.
- Race relations when different groups live under conditions of forced equality.
- Norms concerning masculine role and sexuality in a society devoid of women.
- Emergence of new power symbols when old ones are stripped away.

Prisons are formed around the idea of deterrence by fear rather than morality, and the argument contains three parts:
1. For those who have been imprisoned, the prison experience should be sufficiently distasteful to convince them that crime needs to be avoided.
2. Imprisonment serves as a deterrent for the great mass of citizens who totter on the edge of breaking the law.
3. Keep known criminals out of circulation
