Beskrivning

The volume reports on an empirical study of men and women who started were imprisoned in Canada, England and Finland, during or after the covid pandemic and who were subsequently released back into the community.Drawing on studies of the offenders and practitioners involved, through a comparative lens the men and women’s experiences of their return to society, Re-Entry and Desistance from Crime in a Digital Era explores the roles of existing social and economic arrangements and the use of digital technologies in their journeys away from crime. It pushes us to consider desistance from crime not just as an individually motivated and determined process, but to look to governments and the role which their policies relating to welfare, economic management and criminal justice may also be part of the story of how people desist from crime and how easy or difficult a process it is for them.The authors offer a fresh and compelling contribution to work in the growing field of comparative desistance studies.
