Jail, or
gaol (especially in Australia), or
remand prison, is a correctional institution used to detain persons who are in the lawful custody of the government. This includes either accused persons awaiting trial or for those who have been convicted of a
crime and are serving a sentence of less than one year. Jails are generally small penitentiaries run by individual County and
City, though some jails in larger communities may be as large and hold as many inmates as regular prisons. "Jail" is also a synonym for "prison" in some countries (excluding the United States), especially when the facility is of a similar size as a correctional facility. As with prisons, some jails have different wings for certain types of offenders, and have work programs for inmates who demonstrate good behavior.
Resocialization
Resocialization is a
sociology concept dealing with the process of mentally and emotionally "re-training" a person so that he or she can operate in an environment other than that which he or she is accustomed to.Resocialization into a total institution involves a complete change of personality. Key examples include the process of resocializing new recruits into the military so that they can operate as soldiers (or, in other words, as members of a cohesive unit) and the reverse process, in which those who have become accustomed to such roles return to society after military discharge.
United States
Jails in the
United States are different from
prisons. Jails are typically operated by city or county governments, and house prisoners who are being detained before trial or serving sentences less than one year. Approximately half of the U.S. jail population consists of pretrial detainees who have not been convicted or sentenced. Prisoners serving terms longer than one year are typically housed in correctional facilities operated by state governments. Unlike most state prisons, a jail usually houses both men and women who in separate portions of the same facility. Some jails lease space to house inmates from the federal government, state prisons or from other counties for profit.
As of 2005, local jails held or supervised 819,434 offenders. Nine percent of these offenders were in programs such as
community service, work release, weekend reporting, electronic monitoring, and other alternative programs.
In the United States, as compared to regular 'mainline' state and federal prisons, in which prisoners have already been investigated and classified by corrections personnel before being assigned to a level of security and in which many of the prisoners are committed for longer periods of time, jails usually house many prisoners with varying or unknown histories and propensities for violence or disciplinary problems. As a result, many jails operate their
police booking and receiving units at a relatively high level of correctional security, and also witness a disproportionately large amount of violence and disciplinary problems as compared to mainline facilities.
Gaol
Gaol is an early Modern English spelling for jail, with the same pronunciation and meaning of a place of legal detention. Although jail is now more common, gaol is still the favoured spelling in parts of the British Commonwealth, for example in Australia. Old Melbourne Gaol, Australia However, in Australia, the spelling "jail" is now preferred in popular contexts such as the media, the spelling "gaol" being mainly retained in historical use and in the legal profession. Canada, also a part of the British Commonwealth, has made a similar transition in usage.
The Oxford English Dictionary states that
gaol comes from the
Normans spelling
gaiole down to the 17th century as
gaile. It remains in written form in the archaic spelling
gaol mainly through statutory and official tradition. The only remaining spoken pronunciation is
jail (
International Phonetic Alphabet: /dʒeɪl/), from the Old Parisian French word
jaiole. In modern French, the word
geôle is still used in literary contexts to refer to jail.
From the 16th until the 18th centuries the word
goal(e) was used widely, possibly as an erroneous spelling of gaol, or possibly a phonetic spelling. OED
