Major leaders in Asylum/Prison reform
Alexis de Tocqueville: visited the U.S. to study the penitentiary system. She said that the U.S. gives an example of the most extended liberty, the prisons of the same country offer the spectacle of the most rigid and severe control.
Dorothea Dix: she was compelled by personal experiences to join the movement for social reform.
