Abstract
The SAGE Encyclopedia of the Sociology of Religion investigates the role of religion in society by unpacking and evaluating the significance of religion in and on human history and by tracing and outlining the social forces and influences that shape religion. The contribution on prisons summarizes the research done on the historical role of religion for penitentiary institutions, on religious practices of inmates, as well as on various forms of spiritual care and the power issues at work.
