Drama, Masculinity, and Violence.
Balfour, Michael
Research in Drama Education, v5 n1 p9-21 Feb 2000
Explains that criminal justice agencies have acknowledged that imaginative and engaging styles of education are crucial to rehabilitative work with offenders. Investigates the ways in which a drama-based cognitive-behavioral program in the United Kingdom for violent offenders can construct and review its theoretical approach through practice. Concludes that the theatre in prisons and probation (TIPP) Centre's Pump Challenging Violence program serves as an example of a creative educational project. (PM)
