This book provides a comprehensive analysis of the current directions in social rehabilitation scholarship and research in a comparative, international and interdisciplinary fashion.

Recenzje

“Rehabilitation is usually considered as one of the essential aims of punishment. Its precise meaning, though, is controversial from a theoretical perspective; and it is questionable whether current penal practices are shaped in such a way as to effectively pursue rehabilitative aims, however defined. This excellent book contains insightful contributions from experts in this field throughout the world, and sheds light on the many aspects and meanings of “social” rehabilitation in theory and practice. A unique opportunity for academics and students to gain a comprehensive view of a crucial topic in criminal law.”

Francesco Viganò, Italian Constitutional Court and Bocconi University Law School, Italy

“This volume provides an excellent overview of the contemporary discussions about the concept of social rehabilitation, including its historical roots, the framework within international law, and existing models. It should be read by everyone who believes in a more constructive and humane approach when responding to criminal behavior.”

Tatjana Hörnle, Max Planck Institute for the Study of Crime, Security, and Law and Humboldt University of Berlin, Germany

“ ‘Social rehabilitation’ is an important goal of criminal punishments, but raises many questions due to varying definitions, theoretical underpinnings and penal practices. By bringing together legal scholars, penal actors and social scientists, this book offers a comprehensive, comparative, and interdisciplinary analysis of current social rehabilitation scholarship. A must read for all interested in this domain.”

Sonja Snacken, Vrije Universiteit Brussel, Belgium
