Ploughshares and Prisons

Ploughshares and prisons serve different social functions. Ploughshares is a symbol of peace and represents efforts to promote non-violence and reconciliation, often associated with communities working to transform conflict. Prisons are facilities designed to restrict and rehabilitate individuals convicted of crimes, aiming to maintain public safety and encourage behavioral change. While ploughshares symbolize hope and transformation through peaceful means, prisons focus on punishment and correction. Both are part of broader societal responses to conflict and crime, reflecting different approaches to justice and social stability.
