The Order of Attica
In: Social justice: a journal of crime, conflict and world order, Band 18, Heft 3, S. 35-47
ISSN: 1043-1578, 0094-7571
A social-psychological analysis of the dynamics of the conflict at the Sept 1971 Attica (NY) prison riot. Tom Wicker's A Time to Die (New York: Quadrancle, 1975), describing his experience as a mediator in the Attica negotiations, is used to examine the forces that blocked the communication necessary for conflict negotiation. It is suggested that the rebellions of 1968, the African-American political movements, & the antiwar movement were external forces that penetrated the prison walls, & that the politicization of prisoners, which gave much of the cogency to their revolt, was linked to these social movements. Wicker suggests that the events at Attica were under the control of an order of things that transcended negotiation & concern for individual lives. This order made the participants inflexible & unwilling to compromise, so that everyone felt or claimed to be powerless. It is contended that "the order of Attica" is an example of what can happen when social relations appear as relations between things, & when human creations (roles, institutions, laws) become objects that control & work against their creators in a hostile way. In institutional relations of unequal power, the order prescribes the process. In the case of Attica, the purpose was not to understand, but to ensure that hostile procedures were executed properly so that the governor would receive good public relations. 21 References. S.
