Hello Muira You may also find this: "Jailhouse Journalism: The Fourth Estate Behind Bars by James McGrath Morris" useful. On Tue, 14 Jul 2020 at 17:43, Leurs, K.H.A. (Koen) <K.H.A.Leurs@uu.nl> wrote:
Hi Muira,
I'm not sure if they are already on your radar, but there are some recent pieces on communicative practices of refugees and irregularized migrants living in camps and detention centers,
See for example
Stavinoha, L. (2019). Communicative acts of citizenship: Contesting Europe’s border in and through the media. International Journal of Communication, 13, 1212–1230.
Also Behrous Boochani's story might be interesting
in the Pacific, Behrouz Boochani offered a poetic first-person account of his experiences being held in Aus- tralia’s offshore detention center Manus Island. His award- winning book No Friends but the Mountains, typed out on a mobile phone and shared via WhatsApp, offers a portrait of life in detention, including emotional and psychological pressures, starvation, and insomnia, among others, through his unique self-composed discourse: The government have constructed this system and they create terms to establish and reinforce their power... I avoid using their language as much as I can... through literature I can do whatever I like. I create my own discourse and do not succumb to the language of oppressive power. I create my own language for critically analysing the phenomenon of Manus Prison. (Boochani 2018, 266)
Boochani, Behrouz. 2018. No Friend but the Mountains: Writings from Manus Prison. Translated by Omid Tofighian. Sydney, Australia: Pan Macmillan Australia.
Rae M, Holman R, Nethery A. Self-represented witnessing: The use of social media by asylum seekers in Australia’s offshore immigration detention centres. Media Cult Soc. 2018;40(4):479–95.
And a paper I wrote could be of interest, Leurs, K. (2017). Communication rights from the margins. Politicizing young refugees’ smart phone pocket archives. International Communication Gazette, 79 (6-7), 674-698
Hope this helps - can you kindly share literature you received back to the list?
Warm wishes from Utrecht,
Koen.

Hi, all,
I wanted to reach out to this listserv to connect with folks, who have published on the topic of Internet access (or lack thereof) in prisons as well as the communication practices and/or digital rights of detained and incarcerated populations. I've tried to keep up with scholarship/literature on this topic over the years, but I'm sure I've missed a keyword or database. If you've published on this topic, I'd love to hear from you and if the stars align, cite you. I'm particularly interested in what happens when the "Internet as a human right" discourses collide with carceral logics.
I do apologize if this has been addressed elsewhere/previously in the archive.
Thank you,
Muira
