Why do people enter total institutions – places that confine and control them around the clock – and how does the experience change them? This book updates Goffman's classic model by introducing the Re-inventive Institution, where members voluntarily commit themselves to pursue regimes of self-improvement.

SUSIE SCOTT is Senior Lecturer in Sociology at the University of Sussex, UK. She is the author of Shyness and Society and Making Sense of Everyday Life, alongside articles about shyness, Erving Goffman, swimming and total institutions.
