Module Aims

1. Ystyried yn feirniadol ddatblygiad hanesyddol a'r defnydd o garcharu o fewn cyd-destunau cymdeithasol-wleidyddol gwahanol.
2. Rhoi rhai o'r materion a'r problemau allweddol sy'n ymwneud â'r defnydd presennol o garcharu yn eu cyd-destun

Content Summary

O ‘enedigaeth y carchar modern’ i’w ddefnydd cyfoes, bydd y modiwl yn myfyrio ar rai o’r materion a’r dadleuon allweddol sy’n ymwneud â defnyddio carchar. Bydd hyn yn cynnwys trafodaeth ar rai o’r syniadau allweddol sy’n sail i’r ‘nodau’ amrywiol carcharu a ddefnyddiwyd i egluro carcharu a chyfiawnhau ei ddefnydd parhaus. Felly, mae’r modiwl yn archwilio damcaniaethau cosbi a thwf y system garchardai yng nghyd-destunau gwleidyddol, cymdeithasegol a hanesyddol y ddeunawfed ganrif a’r bedwaredd ganrif ar bymtheg cyn symud ymlaen i feirniadu realiti’r system garchardai yn yr ugeinfed ganrif a’r unfed ganrif ar hugain.
Ochr yn ochr â damcaniaethau presennol ar ddefnyddio carcharu, bydd y modiwl hefyd yn ystyried y materion ymarferol sy’n ymwneud â charcharu yng Nghymru a Lloegr. Bydd hyn yn cynnwys archwilio rhai o’r materion allweddol sy’n ymwneud ag ‘ailsefydlu carcharorion’. Tynnir sylw hefyd at ddadleuon a datblygiadau sy'n digwydd o fewn awdurdodaethau eraill. Bydd hyn yn cynnwys myfyrio ar ddatblygiadau cosbi sy'n digwydd o fewn gwledydd Ewropeaidd eraill yn ogystal â'r Unol Daleithiau
