Book Synopsis Alternatives to Imprisonment by : Ulla V. Bondeson
Download or read book Alternatives to Imprisonment written by Ulla V. Bondeson and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-11-30 with total page 110 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The detrimental effects of imprisonment have been documented and accepted in most western countries. As a result, alternatives to incarceration have been sought in the effort to reform the penal system. Although during the last thirty years several Nordic official committees have recommended a reduction in the use of jail sentences and an increase in other forms of punishment (i.e. fines and probation) in the hope of decreasing crime and rehabilitating criminals, incarceration rates have been going up in Sweden, Denmark, and Norway. Still, the interest in alternatives to imprisonment continues to grow, but few studies have actually been published that examine their effectiveness.

Book Synopsis The Growth of Incarceration in the United States by : Committee on Causes and Consequences of High Rates of Incarceration
Download or read book The Growth of Incarceration in the United States written by Committee on Causes and Consequences of High Rates of Incarceration and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2014-12-31 with total page 800 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: After decades of stability from the 1920s to the early 1970s, the rate of imprisonment in the United States has increased fivefold during the last four decades. The U.S. penal population of 2.2 million adults is by far the largest in the world. Just under one-quarter of the world's prisoners are held in American prisons. The U.S. rate of incarceration, with nearly 1 out of every 100 adults in prison or jail, is 5 to 10 times higher than the rates in Western Europe and other democracies. The U.S. prison population is largely drawn from the most disadvantaged part of the nation's population: mostly men under age 40, disproportionately minority, and poorly educated. Prisoners often carry additional deficits of drug and alcohol addictions, mental and physical illnesses, and lack of work preparation or experience. The growth of incarceration in the United States during four decades has prompted numerous critiques and a growing body of scientific knowledge about what prompted the rise and what its consequences have been for the people imprisoned, their families and communities, and for U.S. society. The Growth of Incarceration in the United States examines research and analysis of the dramatic rise of incarceration rates and its affects. This study makes the case that the United States has gone far past the point where the numbers of people in prison can be justified by social benefits and has reached a level where these high rates of incarceration themselves constitute a source of injustice and social harm. The Growth of Incarceration in the United States examines policy changes that created an increasingly punitive political climate and offers specific policy advice in sentencing policy, prison policy, and social policy. The report also identifies important research questions that must be answered to provide a firmer basis for policy. This report is a call for change in the way society views criminals, punishment, and prison. This landmark study assesses the evidence and its implications for public policy to inform an extensive and thoughtful public debate about and reconsideration of policies.
Book Synopsis Penological Esperanto and Sentencing Parochialism by : Malcolm Davies
Download or read book Penological Esperanto and Sentencing Parochialism written by Malcolm Davies and published by Dartmouth Publishing Company. This book was released on 1996 with total page 264 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines the response of criminal justice officials in California, England and Finland to the idea of community sentences for adult offenders in their jurisdictions. It examines the policy and legislative changes that reflected growing acceptance of community sentences in light of the cost and consequences of imprisonment, and looks at the reasons behind these developments. New ideas in sentencing and criminal policy spread quickly. Sentencing experts use a common language of universally shared meanings and assumptions; a version of penological Esperanto, but inspection of penal practice across jurisdictions often reveal diverse, parochial influences shaping sentencing policy. This book discusses national trends in use of these community sentences, and the views of a variety of officials on the purpose, appropriateness, and credibility of community sentences.
