Abstract
The traditional prison system is facing the crisis of massive overcrowding and inefficiency. An alternative to this inefficient overcrowding of prisons is shock incarceration, or boot camps. Boot camps aim to rehabilitate, incapacitate, punish, deter, and reduce overcrowding and cost of the traditional prison system. Boot Camps meet those aims and should be considered an effective to the traditional prison system.
