Abstract
This book expounds the law relating to prisons in South Africa. Its key assumption is that all aspects of imprisonment should be governed by law. This applies not only to the necessity of having statutory authority for the existence of the prison system but also to law serving as a limit on the arbitrary exercise of power over prisoners and as a guide for the management of prison system generally.
