Typologies of Prison Adaptation: Analysis of the Approaches and Their Underlying Core<\/strong><\/p>\n PhDr. Jan Draho\u0148ovsk\u00fd, University of Hradec Kr\u00e1lov\u00e9, Faculty of Education, Institute of Social Studies, Department of Cultural and Religious Studies<\/p>\n Abstract<\/strong><\/p>\n The article provides a systematic and analytical overview of both influential and regionally specific typologies of prisoner adaptation to the prison environment, identifying the dimensions upon which these typologies are grounded. Drawing on this foundation, it proposes a synthetic framework comprising three cross-cutting axes: Direction (institution-oriented vs. prison subculture-oriented), Self-Regulation, and Adaptability. The contribution of the study lies in bringing conceptual clarity to a fragmented field of typologies across diverse theoretical traditions and in offering a compact analytical vocabulary that can be employed in the formulation of research questions and in the preliminary interpretive assessment of inmate behaviour within the conditions of Czech prisons.<\/p>\n
