The Diploma thesis deals with risks that can appear while doing social work in prisons or also risks that follow from its absence. The thesis has two parts. The first part is theoretical, written from expert resources, general facts and concerned on connection of social work with penology - prison service. At the end of this part the thesis is dedicated to risks that follow from the connection. The second part is practical, concerned on a research which was done by qualitative form via questionnaire survey. The whole thesis is divided into chapters which are logically connected. The aim is to find out how the social work determines imprisonment of custodial sentence and where are the risks of doing social work. The practical part supports, confirms and extends the theoretical part.

The aim of this diploma thesis is to approach a broad topic related to the education of individuals serving a prison sentence and their motivation for education. The work contains a theoretical and practical part. In the theoretical part, with the help of specialized literature, I focus on crime, prisons, including prison history. The next chapter deals with prison statistics, punishments in the Czech Republic, including alternative ones. Subsequently, I focus on resocialization, education and motivation of individuals serving a prison sentence. The last chapter of the theoretical part deals with treatment programs. In it I present the activities of the program, how the program is compiled and their types of programs. In the practical part I present my hypotheses, research methods and characterize a group of respondents. I made a case study with one specific prisoner. The next step is a questionnaire survey, which was sent to prisoners. The processing of its results and hypotheses follows. The last chapter of the diploma thesis contains a conclusion and a discussion of the acquired knowledge.

Title: The impact of physical activity on the quality of life of persons serving a term of imprisonment Aims: The main aim of this thesis is to detect, if the health-oriented fitness and the level of quality of life of persons serving a term of imprisonment increases after ten weeks of a regular exercise. Another aim is to find out, if the results of the observed aspects of persons who did take part in the exercise programme will be much different from those who did not. Methods: This is an empiric-theoretical research thesis. Four ensembles took part in this quantitative research. The ensembles I. (N=5) and II. (N=7) filled out a self- designed questionnaire about quality of life and were tested for health-oriented fitness with the Fitnessgram test battery. The partial motor tests evaluate endurance, muscle strength and flexibility. This measurement was hold before and after a ten weeks long organized exercise program. The ensembles III. (N=15) and IV. (N=15) only filled out the questionnaire of quality of life twice, in the same period as the ensembles I. and II. Results: The results showed a positive impact of regular physical activity on the physical condition of the participants, because most of them improved their health- oriented fitness. Alongside the higher value of the quality of life in...

Trend of declining crime rates in recent years, on the other hand rising recidivism raises many questions for the existing criminal justice system. High return to prison gives the impression that the purpose of a sentence of custodial sentence lose at the beginning of the third millennium its meaning. The challenge not only for the state apparatus, but the whole society is more than ever becoming reintegration of offenders, which is a predictor of risk of recidivism. The aim of this thesis is therefore description and evaluation aspects of the process of social reintegration, taking into account current possibilities to prevent reoffending. Empirical part extends the intention of re-socialization efforts charting selection of innovative programs in social work with offenders. Theoretical material consists of key concepts weighing the Criminology and Penology, which is completed at the end of work formulating recommendations for social work with offenders as a possible guide changes in the life of each individual offender.

Face au recours croissant à la prison soit au titre des peines, soit comme lieu de garde des personnes en attente de jugement, il convient de s’interroger sur les effets de l’incarcération sur la condition juridique des personnes détenues. Longtemps considérée comme étrangère au droit, la prison s’est progressivement dotée d’un corpus de règles que l’on désigne sous le vocable de droit pénitentiaire. Cette recherche vise à interroger les rapports qu’entretiennent le droit de l’institution pénitentiaire et le droit de la société libre afin de préciser les conséquences de l’incarcération sur la vie civile du détenu.De construction récente, le droit pénitentiaire s’est progressivement autonomisé, à tel point qu’il doit être considéré aujourd’hui comme une véritable branche du droit. En cela, il révèle que la prison constitue une microsociété avec ses propres logiques et son propre droit. Véritable décalque de la société civile, la prison évolue dans une orientation toujours plus intrusive dans la vie des personnes qu’elle a sous sa garde.Pourtant, la société civile semble manifester un intérêt croissant pour ses prisons. L’entrée du secteur privé dans la sphère pénitentiaire conjuguée à un contrôle accru du juge a abouti à d’importants changements du système pénitentiaire, notamment au regard du respect des droits fondamentaux du détenu. Toutefois, la réconciliation de la société carcérale et de la société civile n’apparaît possible qu’à la condition d’un alignement du droit pénitentiaire sur le droit privé / In recent decades, it seems important to focus on the effects of incarceration on detainees, as The Criminal Justice System increasingly resort to prison sentences, as well as pre-sentence detentions. After a tradition of lawlessness, penitentiaries have known a phase in of new policies, which are now referred to as Penitentiary law. This research addresses the impact of incarceration on detainees forced to abide by Penitentiary law, the ladder being harsher from the free world law.Thus, developing specific rules, Penitentiary law can now be considered a new type of law, with its own purposes. In the same way, penitentiaries form a micro society following its own rules.Although the trend shows increasingly harsh policies and conditions of confinement, the Criminal Justice System, as to reassure public opinion, seems more and more willing to resort to prison.However, the detainees now afford elaborate constitutional protections, due to private facility management and judicial scrutiny, and the challenge is develop these protections, as to bring Penitentiary law into the line with civil law

In Brazil, the Federal Constitution of 1988 conferred a new profile to the institution, by prioritizing the defense of basic human rights. The prison sentence, in turn; also appeared as an instrument of enforcing the sovereign will, directed toward transgressors of the law. Over time, it was molded and shaped according to political, economical and social changes. In the international scene, the penitentiary rights gained distinction in 1955, when the United Nations Congress elaborated the Standard Minimum Rules for the Treatment of Prisoners. Since then, the humanitarian and social idealism has made its way into the national and international legislation. The Law of Criminal Execution, Law N. 7,210/84, prior to the constitutional text, did not foresee the action of the Public Attorneys in defending the basic human rights of the prisoners. In this context, this paper proposes to investigate the performance of the Brazilian Public Attorneys through the following and inspection of the prison sentence, with the intention of verifying that it is in agreement with its new character, according to the Federal Constitution of 1988, of defending and keeping the legal order, the democratic system and the basic human rights, or if the institution continues to be engaged in the role of "relentless accuser" and in this sense is contributing to the chaos of the penitentiary system. The theoretical postulates will be centered on authors pertaining to the issue, such as: ALBERGARIA (1992); ANDRADE (2002); BARBOSA (2002); BECCARIA (1996), BITENCOURT (2001); BOBBIO (2004); CANOTILHO (1998); FOUCAULT (1987/2002); FRAGOSO (1980); MAZZILLI (2005); MIRABETE (1997/1998); ROXIN (1986/2000); SHECAIRA (1995/2004), among others. / O Ministério Público surgiu como uma instituição incumbida de defender os interesses do soberano e promover a acusação penal. No Brasil, a Constituição Federal de 1988 conferiu novo perfil à instituição, ao priorizar a atuação em defesa dos direitos fundamentais. A pena privativa de liberdade, por sua vez; também surgiu como instrumento de imposição da vontade do soberano dirigido àquele que transgredisse a ordem dominante e, ao longo do tempo, recebeu contornos diferentes à medida que se alteravam fatores políticos, econômicos e sociais. No cenário internacional, o direito penitenciário ganhou destaque, a partir de 1955, quando a Organização das Nações Unidas elaborou as Regras Mínimas para o Tratamento de Reclusos. Desde então, o ideário humanitário e socializador passou a permear a legislação nacional e internacional. A Lei de Execução Penal, Lei n. 7.210/84, anterior ao texto constitucional, não previu a atuação do Ministério Público, como garantidor dos direitos fundamentais dos presos. Nesse contexto, o presente trabalho se propõe a investigar a atuação do Ministério Público brasileiro no acompanhamento e fiscalização da pena privativa de liberdade, no intuito de verificar se há consonância com a nova feição que lhe foi atribuída pela Constituição Federal de 1988, de defensor da ordem jurídica, do regime democrático e dos direitos fundamentais, ou se a instituição continua apegada à função de "acusador implacável" e nesse sentido está contribuindo para o caos do sistema penitenciário. Os postulados teóricos; estarão centrados em autores pertinentes ao tema, como: ALBERGARIA (1992); ANDRADE (2002); BARBOSA (2002); BECCARIA (1996), BITENCOURT (2001); BOBBIO (2004); CANOTILHO (1998); FOUCAULT (1987/2002); FRAGOSO (1980); MAZZILLI (2005); MIRABETE (1997/1998); ROXIN (1986/2000); SHECAIRA (1995/2004), além de outros.

The terms “anti-juridicity” and “custodial sentences” are widely used in the legal world. In this article, the author encourages to question both terms, analyzing if they are coherent with, precisely, what is understood as Law. First, the author wonders if it is correct to talk about “antijuridicity”, taking into account the subject of Law, the ways in which Law is manifested, and the relation between juridicity and Law.Further on, the author analyses if it is correct to talk about a “custodial sentence”, considering the relation between liberty and the human being. All through the article, the author also recounts how the ideas in Law have evolved through recenthistory. / Los términos “antijuridicidad” y “pena privativa de la libertad” son bastante utilizados en el medio legal. El autor del presente artículo invita a cuestionar ambos términos, analizando si son coherentes con, precisamente, lo que se entiende como Derecho. Así, en primer lugar se plantea si es correcto hablar de “antijuridicidad”, teniendo en cuenta el objeto del Derecho, las formas en que se manifiesta el Derecho y la relación entre este y la juridicidad. Asimismo, analiza si es correcto hablar de una “pena privativa de la libertad”, teniendo en cuenta la relación entre ser humano y libertad. Todo ello lo realiza mientras hace un recuento de cómo se ha producido la evolución del pensamiento en el Derecho a lo largo de la historia reciente

This master's thesis "The significance of education of people during their custodial sentence with regard to the convicts of serious criminal acts in the Czech Republic" deals with education of perpetrators of serious criminal acts. The aim of this thesis is to ascertain, whether people who are imprisoned in long term can through education, which includes not only vocational education and primary education, but also the "Program of treatment" and activity of pedagogical workers, change the point of view at the sense of custodial sentence. I consider the pedagogical workers to be the people who work as special pedagogues, leisure pedagogues and educators. The theoretical part deals with functions of custodial sentence, then with the "program Treatment with convicts, education of convicts, social works at prison, and connection of social work at prison with education of convicts and there is also something about the logo therapeutic attitude of Viktor Emil Frankl. The last part of this thesis deals with analysis of eleven interviews, which were completed by convicts of serious criminal acts who are nowadays already at liberty. This part responds the aim of the thesis.

L’analyse de la dignité du condamné dans l’exécution de sa peine privative de liberté suppose d’étudier d’une part les conditions dans lesquelles il exécute sa peine lorsqu’il est incarcéré au sein d’un établissement pénitentiaire, puis d’autre part celles dans lesquelles il exécute sa peine dans la phase post-carcérale. Cependant, la constatation du respect ou de la négation de la dignité du condamné repose sur l’appréciation de l’adaptation et de la proportionnalité de l’atteinte portée à ses spécificités humaines primaires et à leurs supports, à un objectif légitime d’intérêt général. Ainsi, si l’humanisation des conditions de détention permet d’assurer progressivement le respect de la dignité du condamné, sa responsabilisation et la réappropriation de sa condition humaine lui offrent les moyens de promouvoir sa dignité par la stimulation de ses potentialités humaines d’amélioration. La phase d’exécution post-carcérale de la peine privative de liberté semble connaître un mouvement inverse. En effet, si la conception et la mise en œuvre des mesures d’aménagements de peine semblaient garantir le respect et la promotion de la dignité du condamné, l’introduction « d’une éthique de conviction » de surveillance étatique du condamné dans la phase post-carcérale emporte la négation de la dignité du condamné par une atteinte à son autonomie qui s’avère totalement inadaptée à l’objectif de prévention de la récidive criminologique. / The analysis of the convict's dignity while serving their custodial sentences implies to study the conditions in which they serve their penalties when incarcerated in a prison establishment on the one hand, then the conditions in which they carry out their sentences when out of prison on the other hand. However, if the convict's dignity is respected or negated, it depends in both cases on how the adaptation and proportionality of the infringement of their primary human features are assessed according to a legitimate public interest.As a result, if more human detention conditions allow to ensure that the convict's dignity is gradually respected, the fact that they are encouraged to bear more responsibility and are again considered human beings enables them to promote their dignity by stimulating their human potential powers of improvement. The post-detention stage (when the custodial sentence is served out of prison) seems to evince an opposite trend. As a matter of fact, if the creation and implementation of measures of sentence reduction seemed to guarantee the respect and the promotion of the convict's dignity, the introduction of a “code of conviction” of state surveillance over the convict in the post-detention stage entails a negation of the convict's dignity as their autonomy has been infringed in a way totally inadapted to the aim of preventing second-offence crime.

This article intends to analyze treatment and functions assigned to the penalty by our Peruvian Constitution and the way this legal institution is conducted at the prescribed basic penalty level (imposed by the legislator ineach type of criminal offence), the specific penalty level (imposed by the judge according to its individual characteristics in each case) and at the penitentiary enforcement level. Finally recommends some considerations for carrying out a possible legislative reform in accordance with a criminal policy plan within our constitutional framework. / El presente trabajo busca efectuar un análisis en torno al tratamiento y las funciones que nuestra Constitución política asigna a la pena, y la manera como dicha institución se desarrolla en nuestro país con respectoa la pena abstracta (la impuesta por el legislador en cada tipo penal), la pena concreta (la impuesta por el juez luego de una individualización en cada casoconcreto), y su ejecución en el ámbito penitenciario. Finaliza proponiendo algunas consideraciones para una eventual reforma legislativa conforme conun plan de política criminal que se encuentre dentro del marco constitucional.
