Marked: Race, Crime, and Finding Work in an Era of Mass Incarceration by Devah Pager
5.0
A modern classic study
Pager's study on the stigma of a criminal record is seminal and deserves a place beside Sherif's Robbers Cave study and Milgram's obedience to authority experiment.
On a personal note, I must have cited Pager's paper in a dozen or two essays as an undergrad, shoehorning references even in art history assignments. This book is a grand and thorough expansion of the published paper, and while the Kindle version could do with formatting updates to its citations and table of contents, I know I will use it as an invaluable reference in future research.
