Mitchell traces the history of the CCPOA from its founding in 1957 to the present day. He shows how the union has grown in power and influence over the years, and how it has used that power to shape the policies and practices of the California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation (CDCR). Mitchell also examines the relationship between the CCPOA and other political actors, including the governor, the legislature, and the courts.
Mitchell's analysis is based on extensive research, including interviews with current and former CCPOA leaders, CDCR officials, and other experts. He provides a wealth of new information about the union's internal workings, its political strategies, and its impact on the California criminal justice system.
Politics, Punishment, and the Prison Officers Union in California is a major contribution to the study of corrections and criminal justice. It is a must-read for anyone interested in the history of the CCPOA, the role of unions in the criminal justice system, or the politics of punishment in California.
