Abstract

Selected offender classification practices, past and present, are reviewed and evaluated in light of minimal criteria. Megargee's (1977) requirements for a "good" classification system are amplified, and a critique of several current approaches is provided. The role of classification deficiencies in prison conditions litigation is summarized. The author also draws together in Appendices several sets of guidelines from commissions, courts, scholars, and government institutes.
