Routledge Handbook on Global Community Corrections

«

"Even in developed nations, community corrections typically operates in the shadows, little understood by members of the public or even the wider criminal legal system. In this essential new resource, a global team of contributors brings light to the vastly different visions of community corrections that have emerged around the globe."
Shadd Maruna, Professor of Criminology, Queen's University Belfast"What an ambitious and essential initiative! The Routledge Handbook on Global Community Corrections by Ioan Durnescu, James M. Byrne, Benjamin J. Mackey, and Faye S. Taxman meets a real need and brings an important contribution to improve the knowledge of corrections all over the world. The originality of this work lies in the fact that it considers the whole of the penal population, prison and probation, provides a structured view of 20 countries on 5 continents, and identifies common and fundamental questions that arise despite the great diversity of structures, cultures, organizations, etc., which are all part of the criminal justice system. The 10 challenges we all face are relevant and will certainly keep us focused in the future. This excellent work invites interested readers to think about social impact, good practices, ethical issues. This book offers a new insight about what could be expected to do things better and more appropriately than simply more."
Annie Devos, Vice-chair of the PC-CP, President of the CEP and DG of the Houses of Justice at the Wallonia Brussels, Belgium

The Routledge Handbook on Global Community Corrections assesses and analyzes the status of community corrections systems around the world, highlighting inter-regional and intra-regional variations in their design, implementation, and impact on policy and practice. Covering both probation and parole, this handbook brings together leading international experts to examine the myriad of systems developed under the broad heading of community corrections to manage community corrections populations at the pre-adjudication, adjudication, and post-release stages. Chapters are designed to consider the following questions:

  • How many offenders are placed in community corrections systems around the globe?
  • What are the key design features of these community corrections systems?
  • What do we know about the effectiveness of community corrections within and across global regions?
  • This is an essential reference text for all those engaged with community corrections, probation, and post-release policy in criminal justice.
