The line graphs show changes in the prison population of a particular European country at ten-year intervals from 1911 to 2001. In general, there were significantly more men imprisoned than women in this country. While the number of male prisoners continued to rise over the study period, the reverse was true for women.
In the first 60 years, the number of male prisoners was rather stable. Starting at 25,000, the figure dipped to approximately 22,500 in 1921, before experiencing a slight increase and stabilizing near its initial level for the remainder of the period. In 1991, the increase became more pronounced, and by 2000, the number of male prisoners had surged to staggering 35,000.
In stark contrast, females exhibited a downward trend with fluctuations. For example, the first interval experienced a steep drop from 4,500 to 3,500, after which the numbers remained stable for the next two decades. From 1941 onward, the figure declined once more, reaching a low of 2,000. It recovered to 3,000 by 1971 but then dropped again to 1,000 by 2000.
