• This video discusses the relation of architects and their responsibility to design prisons. While some architects feel there is an ethical way to build solidarity rooms, others feel as though architects should reject any offers to design these rooms, as they are inhumane.

• This BBC video hypothesizes about the potential benefits of a world without prisons. It discusses determinism, as well as the increased level of effort society may put into rehabilitating individuals if there is no option to lock them away. [2]

• This video discusses the correlation between in-school punishment systems, and student rates of arrest after graduation.
