Darbo tikslas: ištirti linkusių ir nelinkusių savęs žaloti įkalintų asmenų nerimo, depresiškumo įverčių skirtumus ir tarpusavio sąsajas su stresogeninių situacijų įveikos strategijomis. Tiriamieji: šiame tyrime, vykusiam nuo 2008 – 02 – 18 iki 2008 – 10 – 01, dalyvavo 256 laisvės atėmimo vietose esantys asmenys, suskirstyti į dvi – tiriamąją ir lyginamąją – grupes. Iš jų tyrime dalyvavo 81 asmuo, įtrauktas į laisvės atėmimo vietos nuteistųjų ir suimtųjų, priklausančių didelės rizikos grupei dėl savęs žalojimosi ar bandymo nusižudyti apskaitos žurnalą, kuriems paskirta sustiprinta individuali priežiūra – minėti asmenys sudaro tiriamąją grupę. Lyginamąją grupę sudarė 176 laisvės atėmimo vietose esantys neįtraukti į šį apskaitos žurnalą asmenys. Tyrimui naudotos HAD (Hospital Anxiety and Depression), BDI (Beck Depression Inventary), COPE metodikos. Išvados: nustatyta, jog linkę save žaloti yra jauni asmenys (amžiaus vidurkis – 30 m.), turintys žemesnį išsilavinimą, suimti ar atliekantys bausmę už sunkius, smurtinius nusikaltimus, laikantys save priklausomais nuo alkoholio, narkotinių medžiagų. Linkusių save žaloti įkalintų asmenų grupėje nerimo, depresiškumo įverčiai lyginant su įkalintais, bet nežalojusiais savęs asmenimis – aukštesni. Įvertinus tik linkusių save žaloti asmenų grupės depresiškumo, nerimo įverčių išreikštumą pagal laisvės atėmimo vietą nustatyta, jog suimtų asmenų grupėje nerimo, depresiškumo (tik BDI) įverčiai aukštesni nei nuteistų asmenų grupėje.

To survey differences in evaluations of anxiety and depression and links with strategies used to cope with stressful situations of persons in confinement who are tended to injure themselves and those who are not.The object of the research: 256 persons in confinement took part in the research. They were divided into two groups: analyzed and comparative groups. The research was started on the 18th of February, 2008 and ended on the 1st of October, 2008. Analyzed group was made out of 81 person who were tended to injure themselves (all of them belonged to the group of persons in confinement with the higher risk due to the disposition to injure or kill themselves, and were under reinforced supervision). Comparative group was made out of 176 persons in confinement who didn‘t belong to the group with the higher risk due to the disposition to injure or kill themselves. Methods of research were HAD (Hospital Anxiety and Depression), BDI (Beck Depression Inventory), COPE methods. Conclusions. The research showed that persons who are tended to kill or injure themselves are young (~ 30 years old), with lower education, arrested or sentenced for violent crimes and those who think that are dependant on alcohol or drugs. Evaluations of anxiety and depression are higher in the group of persons in confinement who are tended to injure themselves. The results of the research showed that evaluations of anxiety and depression (only BDI) are higher in the group of... [to full text]

Studiens syfte var att undersöka kriminalvårdens centrala riktlinjer för psykisk ohälsa bland anstaltsklienter och om dessa riktlinjer realiseras i praktiskt arbete på två olika avdelningar: normalavdelning och behandlingsavdelning på en anstalt av högsta säkerhetsklass i Sverige. Data samlades in genom intervjuer med åtta kriminalvårdare och en psykolog. Resultatet visade att psykisk ohälsa ur ett personalperspektiv är vanligt förekommande, främst ADHD, depression, ångest och sömnsvårigheter. Majoriteten av respondenterna visste inte om vilka riktlinjer som finns vid behandling av klienters psykiska ohälsa. Slutsatsen är att det råder brister i kommunikationen mellan ledningen och kriminalvårdarna inom anstalten. / The purpose of this study was to examine the correctional institutions central guidelines for mental problems among their clients and whether these guidelines are used in practical work within two different facilities: normal facilities and treatment facilities at an institution of a maximum security prison in Sweden. Data was collected through interviews with eight prison officers and a psychologist. The results showed that mental problems from a staff perspective are common, mainly ADHD, depression, anxiety and insomnia. The majority of the respondent did not have knowledge about the central guidelines for client’s mental problems. Conclusion is that there are deficiencies in communication between management and the prison officers within the correctional institution.

Tentamos fornecer um outro olhar para o tema das prisões no Brasil, fazendo mais uma história institucional e dos trabalhadores que ergueram o primeiro complexo prisional do país, e menos uma análise das questões que envolveram os debates em torno do clássico Vigiar e Punir de Michael Foucault. O filósofo francês examinou as relações entre os modos de exercício do poder, a constituição dos saberes e o estabelecimento da verdade, apontando a passagem da punição do corpo para a alma dos condenados em fins do século XVIII e início do XIX na Europa. Embora o Brasil abrigasse inúmeros estudiosos das novas formas de punir disponíveis no velho continente naquele momento, a vigência da escravidão alterou profundamente a implantação desse novo tipo de punição. Aqui, o suplício e a prisão com trabalho conviveram lado a lado até o final do século XIX. Como a idéia era escrever a história da primeira prisão com trabalho do Brasil, iniciamos a abordagem no período regencial, quando teve início o processo de construção da nova penitenciária a partir da mobilização da Sociedade Defensora da Liberdade e Independência Nacional. Nesse momento surge também uma nova categoria jurídica no país, os africanos livres. Estes últimos, somados aos escravos, sentenciados, homens livres e libertos foram os grandes responsáveis pela construção da primeira Casa de Correção do Brasil / Abstract: This dissertation analyses the construction of the first penitentiary made by the Brazilian Empire: The House of Correction of Rio de Janeiro. In doing so, I seek to offer a new perspective on the question of prisons in Brazil. Thus this text deals more with the history of the institutions and workers that built the first penitentiary of the country, and less with the issues that involved the debates on the classic "Surveiller et punir" written by Michael Foucault. The French Philosopher has analysed the relations between the way public institutions operate and the constitution of a new knowledge regarding discipline and punishment in 18th- and 19th- century Europe. In Brazil, however, the existence of slavery created problems for the implementation of a concept of punishment that emphasized the reformation of the individual instead of physical retaliation on his/her body. My approach in this dissertation is to tell a history of the construction and establishment of the House of Correction in Rio as a chapter in the social of history of labor in the country. Thus I start out with the initial debates about the subject in the 1830s and move on to deal with the experience of workers -africanos livres (Africans freed due to the illegal slave trade), slaves, free workers, prisoners- during the construction of the penitentiary and the first years after its opening / Doutorado / Historia Social / Doutor em História

Summaries in English and Afrikaans / In the study below, the phenomenon of "maximum security prisons" is described as it is applied in various parts of the world, according to capita selecta. The phenomenon is described as it occurs in four countries, namely Australia, the United States of America, England and South Africa. The primary aim of this study is to obtain the Magister Artium degree. Secondly, it will shed more light on the treatment of prisoners who have to be detained in maximum security conditions as a result of their type of offence, length of sentence and conduct. The philosopical framework for the detention of maximum security prisoners is taken into account, while certain generic aspects unique to prisons are examined as well. This study is of universal importance because long-term prison sentences are on the increase, in spite of the fact that other punitive measures exist. / In die hieropvolgende studie word die verskynsel "maksimum sekuriteitsgevangenisse" soos wat dit in verskeie werelddele toepassing vind aan die hand van capita selecta beskryf. Die verskynsel word ten opsigte van vier lande, naamlik Australie, die V erenigde State van Amerika, Engeland en Suid-Afrika beskryf. Die beskrywing het in die eerste plek ten doel om die graad Magister Artium te verwerf. Ten tweede werp dit meer lig op die bantering van gevangenes wat weens hul tipe oortreding, vonnislengte en gedrag in maksimum sekuriteitsomstandighede aangehou moet word. Die filosofiese raamwerk vir aanhouding van maksimumgevangenes word in oenskou geneem, maar daar word ook na verskeie generiese aspekte eie aan gevangenisse gekyk. Die studie is van globale belang weens die feit dat langtermyngevangenisstraf besig is om toe te neem, ten spyte daarvan dat alternatiewe vorme van straf bestaan. / Penology / M.A. (Penologie)

Thesis (MPA))--School of Public Leadership, 2011. / ENGLISH ABSTRACT: The objective of this study is the evaluation of financial management practices in the Department of Correctional Services (DCS). For the purpose of the study, "financial management practices‟ are defined and demarcated as the practices performed by the accounting officer, chief financial officer and other managers in the areas of budgeting, supply chain management, movable asset management and control. Recurrence of similar internal audit and inspection findings, as well as the continuous poor audit reports that the department had been receiving annually, led the office of the National Commissioner to request all branches and Regional Commissioners to compile action plans aimed at addressing non-compliance. In order to fulfil the study objective, the normative requirements for the identified financial management practices are first defined in terms of financial management theory, policy and legislation. The accounting officers are heads of departments, and they account personally for financial transactions. The concepts of "budget processes" and "planning" are explored in order to identify normative requirements. „Budget‟ is identified as part of organisational planning, which starts with the aim and the mission of the institution. Under supply chain management, the principles of procurement are discussed, as considerable amounts are spent on goods and services. The life cycle of assets is discussed in detail, including the procedure for giving account of assets. Control is defined as a process through which a manager ensures that activities are carried out as originally planned. With regard to policy and legislation, the Public Finance Management Act (PFMA), Act 1 of 1999 as amended by Act 29 of 1999 (South Africa, 1999) and Treasury Regulations are explained in detail, focusing on the budget process and financial management responsibilities of all different role players. With regard to supply chain management, policies are explained in detail, focusing on the acquisition of goods and services. The acceptable supply chain management system is also highlighted. According to Gildenhuys (1997:137), equipment is called movable assets and this category of assets are obtained and created to be utilised for a number of years as instruments for delivering services. With regard to control, in order to comply with financial management policies, an official in a department must ensure that the system of financial management and internal control established for that department is carried out within the area of responsibility of that official. The budget and planning processes of the Department of Correctional Services are explained in detail. How the financial management cascades through the department is highlighted by means of an organogram. Supply chain management processes are discussed in detail, focusing on the procurement procedures and requirements for acquisition of goods and services. The policy on asset management for the Department of Correctional Services is considered, focusing on the acquisition and control of assets. The legislative framework of the department is also examined in detail, focusing on the control measures within the department. The theory of evaluation is discussed in detail, with the emphasis on evaluation questions. A summary is provided of the financial functions of budgeting, supply chain management, asset management and control in terms of the financial functions of each of the following role players: the Accounting Officer, Chief financial officer and other managers. Evaluation questions are formulated, and audit reports contained in the annual reports, the internal auditor‟s reports and circulars of the department are used to answer those questions. Finally, recommendations are made, emphasising that Department of Correctional Services needs to continue to invest in the training and development of all staff, regarding The PFMA (South Africa, 1999) and Treasury Regulations. / AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Die doel van hierdie studie was om finansiële bestuurspraktyke binne die Departement Korrektiewe Dienste (DKD) te evalueer. "Finansiële bestuurspraktyke" word vir die doel van die studie gedefinieer en omskryf as die praktyke wat deur die rekenpligtige amptenaar, die hoof finansiële bestuursbeampte en ander bestuurders binne die gebied van begroting, voorsieningskettingbestuur, roerende batebestuur en beheer beoefen word. Herhaalde voorkoms van soortgelyke interne ouditerings- en inspeksiebevindings, sowel as die voortdurende swak ouditverslae wat jaarliks deur die departement ontvang is, het die kantoor van die Nasionale Kommissaris genoop om alle takke en Streekskommissarisse te versoek om 'n plan van optrede op te stel om nie-nakoming aan te spreek. Om die doelwit van die studie te bereik, word die normatiewe vereistes vir die geïdentifiseerde finansiële bestuurspraktyke eerstens in terme van finansiële bestuursteorie, beleid en wetgewing gedefinieer. Die rekenpligtige amptenare is hoofde van departemente en hulle doen persoonlik verantwoording vir finansiële transaksies. Die konsepte „begrotingsproses‟ en „beplanning‟ word verken om normatiewe vereistes te identifiseer. „Begroting‟ word as deel van organisatoriese beplanning, wat by die doel en misie van die instelling begin, geïdentifiseer. Die beginsels van aanskaffing word in verband met die voorsieningskettingbestuur bespreek aangesien aansienlike bedrae op goedere en dienste bestee word. Die lewensiklus van bates word met inbegrip van die prosedure vir verslaglewering aangaande bates in besonderhede bespreek. Beheer word as 'n proses waarvolgens 'n bestuurder verseker dat aktiwiteite sonder afwyking van 'n oorspronklike plan uitgevoer word. Ten opsigte van beleid en wetgewing word die Wet op Openbare Finansiële Bestuur (WOFB), No. 1, 1999 soos gewysig deur Wet 29 van 1999 (South Africa, 1999) en Regulasies van die Departement Finansies in besonderhede verduidelik, met aandag aan die begrotingsproses en die finansiële bestuursverantwoordelikhede van al die verskillende rolspelers. Beleid betreffende voorsieningskettingbestuur word in besonderhede bespreek met spesifiek aandag aan die verkryging van goedere en dienste. Die aanvaarbare voorsieningskettingbestuurstelsel word ook toegelig. Volgens Gildenhuys (1997:137) word toerusting as roerende bates aangedui en hierdie kategorie van bates word verkry en geskep om vir 'n aantal jare as middele vir die lewering van dienste gebruik te word. Om aan finansiële bestuursbeleid met betrekking tot beheer te voldoen, moet 'n amptenaar binne 'n departement verseker dat die stelsel wat binne sy/haar verantwoordelikheidsveld vir die finansiële bestuur en interne beheer van daardie departement ingestel is, toegepas word. Die begrotings- en beplanningprosesse van die Departement Korrektiewe Dienste word in besonderhede verduidelik. 'n Organogram word gebruik om lig te werp op hoe die finansiële bestuur die hele departement deurvloei. Voorsieningskettingbestuursprosesse word in besonderhede bespreek met klem op die prosedure en die vereistes vir die verkryging van goedere en dienste. Aandag word geskenk aan die beleid oor batebestuur binne die Departement Korrektiewe Dienste, met klem op die verkryging en beheer van bates. Verder word die departement se wetgewingsraamwerk in besonderhede ondersoek, weereens met aandag aan beheermeganismes binne die departement. Die teorie aangaande evaluering word in besonderhede bepreek, met spesiale klem op vrae wat vir evaluering gestel word. 'n Opsomming van die finansiële funksie van begrotings, voorsieningskettingbestuur, batebestuur en beheer in terme van die finansiële funksies van elk van die rolspelers, naamlik die rekenpligtige amptenaar, die hoof bestuursbeampte en ander bestuurders word voorsien. Vrae vir evaluering word geformuleer en antwoorde op daardie vrae word aan die hand van ouditverslae wat in jaarverslae opgeneem is, die interne ouditeur se verslae en departementele omsendbriewe verskaf. Ten slotte word aanbevelings gedoen wat beklemtoon dat die Departement Korrektiewe dienste sy belegging in die opleiding en ontwikkeling van alle personeel ten opsigte van die WOFB (South Africa, 1999) en Regulasies van die Departement Finansies moet voortsit.

Thesis (MTech. degree in Architecture: Professional)--Tshwane University of Technology, 2011. / This dissertation encompasses the design of a low security correctional facility to function as a community re-entry centre in central Pretoria. In recent years, the Department of Correctional Services realised that alternative approaches and innovation is desperately required to deal with the issues of overcrowding, recidivism, known as the habitual return to a life of crime, as well as the spiralling cost of incarceration in South African prisons. This dissertation proposes a new detention building type in South Africa within which the education, rehabilitation and reintegration of inmates can be dealt with holistically. In the proposed building, the designer will attempt to create awareness about the plight of offenders and their recovery from a life of crime while incorporating research with regards to sustainable architecture. It aspires to realising the opportunities that could arise from the human capital locked away in our correctional facilities if successful rehabilitation within an appropriate architectural environment could be implemented.
