CEP International Conference on “Alternatives to detention” Bucharest, Romania, Hotel Intercontinental, 6–7 October 2016 Have community sanctions and measures widened the net of European criminal justice systems? Revisited Marcelo F. Aebi Professor of Criminology at the University of Lausanne, Switzerland

Marcelo F. Aebi Have community sanctions and measures widened the net Marcelo F. Aebi Have community sanctions and measures widened the net? Revisited Bucharest, 07/10/2016

One and the Universe (1945) Ernesto Sabato (1911-2011) Marcelo F. Aebi Have community sanctions and measures widened the net? Revisited Bucharest, 07/10/2016

Ernesto Sabato (1911-2011) One and the Universe (1945) An ichthyologist throws his fishing net to the sea and gets different kinds of fish. He repeats the operation several times, he analizes, he classifies, and he establishes the following laws : 1) There are no fish smaller than 5 centimeters long. 2) All fish have gills. An observer remarks that the first law is due to the size of the mesh of the net. Marcelo F. Aebi Have community sanctions and measures widened the net? Revisited Bucharest, 07/10/2016

The punitive city (Crime, Law and Social Change, 1979) “the major results of the new movements towards ‘community’ and ‘diversion’ have been to increase rather than decrease the amount of intervention directed at many groups of deviants in the system and, probably, to increase rather than decrease the total number who get into the system in the first place. In other words: ‘alternatives’ become not alternatives at all but new programs which supplement the existing system or else expand it by attracting new populations. I will refer to these two overlapping possibilities as ‘thinning the mesh’ and ‘widening the net’ respectively” Stanley Cohen (1942-2013) Marcelo F. Aebi Have community sanctions and measures widened the net? Revisited Bucharest, 07/10/2016

Net widening “the processes whereby attempts to prevent crime and develop community-based corrections act to expand the criminal justice system and draw more subjects into its remit” (John Muncie, 2001). Marcelo F. Aebi Have community sanctions and measures widened the net? Revisited Bucharest, 07/10/2016

Front-end and Back-end Programs (Tonry and Lynch, 1996) Front-end programs: sanction programs designed to avoid sending an offender to prison Back-end programs: for offenders released early or diverted to the program by corrections officials after serving a part of their sentence in prison Marcelo F. Aebi Have community sanctions and measures widened the net? Revisited Bucharest, 07/10/2016

Probation in Europe Probation “relates to the implementation in the community of sanctions and measures, defined by law and imposed on an offender. It includes a range of activities and interventions, which involve supervision, guidance and assistance aiming at the social inclusion of an offender, as well as at contributing to community safety” (Council of Europe Probation Rules, 2010). Probationers and prisoners Marcelo F. Aebi Have community sanctions and measures widened the net? Revisited Bucharest, 07/10/2016

Probation in Europe Community sanctions and measures (CSM): “sanctions and measures which maintain offenders in the community and involve some restrictions on their liberty through the imposition of conditions and/or obligations. The term designates any sanction imposed by a judicial or administrative authority, and any measure taken before or instead of a decision on a sanction, as well as ways of enforcing a sentence of imprisonment outside a prison establishment” (Council of Europe Probation Rules, 2010).

Probation and Prison Population Rate Probation population rate: Number of persons placed under the supervision or care of probation agencies (or an equivalent institution in countries that do not have such agencies) per 100,000 inhabitants Probationers Prison population rate: Number of persons deprived of freedom per 100,000 inhabitants Inmates Marcelo F.

Research question Marcelo F. Aebi Have community sanctions and measures widened the net? Revisited Bucharest, 07/10/2016

Example: Community service in Europe Marcelo F. Aebi Have community sanctions and measures widened the net? Revisited Bucharest, 07/10/2016

Ten-years evolution of the Prison Population Rates (2005-2014, n=39) The percentage change between 2005 and 2014 for CoE Member States was -0.17% This presentation is based on OVERALL rates. It shows GENERAL trends. At the INDIVIDUAL (country) level, there are surely more factors playing in a role than the ones presented here.

Total populations Marcelo F. Aebi Have community sanctions and measures widened the net? Revisited Bucharest, 07/10/2016

Main categories of sentenced prisoners by type of offence (median percentages in 2014) Traditional theft is decreasing Theft is no longer the main type of offence for which sentenced inmates are serving custody The rise of e-crime is not reflected in the composition of prison populations Most sentenced inmates are serving sentences for drug offences and violent offences For drug and violent offences, inmates usually receive long sentences International Comparisons Prison Statistics ¦ Aebi, Burkhardt, Chopin & Tiago
