From the late eighteenth century through the late twentieth century, US corrections progressed through nine significant eras of development:

The Penitentiary Era

The Mass (Congregate) Prison Era

The Reformatory Era

The Industrial Era

The Punitive Era

The Treatment Era

The Community-Based Era

The Warehousing Era

The Just Deserts Era

These eras of development provide a blueprint of US corrections development.

The needs and perceptions of society, merged with the ideology of offender supervision, resulted in drastically different management styles with time. The lessons learned by this progression provided the foundation of adult prison design and management utilized today.

Write in a clear, concise, and organized manner; demonstrate ethical scholarship in accurate representation and attribution of sources; and use correct spelling, grammar, and punctuation. Include citations in the text and at the end of the document in APA format.
