摘要

死刑犯在执行死刑前被判处长期隔离。然而,这些人通常会有定期写作的笔友。人们研究了与死刑犯通信的轶事,尽管通常只关注笔友之间的一组信件。该项目采用混合方法对与死刑犯通信的个人进行调查。定性分析探讨了为什么一个人选择给死刑犯写信以及这封信的影响的多个方面。对数据进行的定量分析探讨了信函写作的哪些方面更有可能导致通讯员从事与死刑有关的活动。研究结果表明,写信对写信人有积极的影响。写信可能是使死刑犯人性化的一种方式,并鼓励倡导死刑的工作。

Letters to Hell: Correspondence with death row inmates

Death row inmates are sentenced to long periods of isolation before their execution. These individuals, however, often acquire pen pals who write on a regular basis. Anecdotal writings on correspondence with death row inmates have been studied, though usually focusing only on a set of letters between pen pals. This project uses a mixed-methods approach to examine individuals who corresponded with death row inmates. A qualitative analysis explores multiple facets of why a person chose to write to a death row inmate and the effects of this letter writing. A quantitative analysis of the data explores which aspects of letter writing are more likely to result in the correspondent engaging in activities relating to the death penalty. Results from the study reveal that letter writing has positive effects on the letter writers. Letter writing may pose a way to humanise death row inmates and encourage advocacy work towards the death penalty.
