La taupe et le serpent. Discipline et contrôle dans les tribunaux pour enfants aux États-Unis (xxe-xxie siècles) by Guillaume Périssol

“…Furthermore, what remains of the disciplinary society described by Michel Foucault when he proposed the prison as the analogic model for the enclosed milieux used for containing people in modern times? Our hypothesis is that the invention of a probationary system to manage increasing numbers of deviants reveals a shift from disciplinary societies to societies of control, as envisaged by Gilles Deleuze in 1990.…”
