Abstract:

Detention centres are a rather new phenomena in the Swedish institutional setup. However, due to the migration inflow of 2015 it is now rapidly expanding all over Sweden. So far, it has been only scarcely monitored and researched and mostly with a focus on the perspective of the detainee’s health or the employee’s experiences at the detention centres. Little is known about the role of the NGOs and how they collaborate with the Migration Agency to secure the rights for those who are detained. This study is a qualitative case study on one of the five detention centres in Sweden, namely Åstorp detention centre which is located in Skåne 20km from Helsingborg. Four interviews have been made with the Migration Agency and with the NGOs that are continuously visiting the detainees in Åstorp. By using data triangulation, the validity of the study has increased and principles from the rights-based approach have been used to highlight important aspects of the collaboration. One significant finding in this research is that the Migration Agency is willingly increasing the transparency by inviting an unlimited number of NGOs to monitor and secure the rights for the detainees, which in turn has led to Sweden's detention centres being referred to as a successful model for the rest of the world. This study has also showed a successful and mutual collaboration between the Migration Agency and the NGOs and even if their roles at the detention centres are different, all participants are working towards a common goal, to improve the conditions for those who are detained. Notwithstanding the relatively limited sample by including one out of five detention centres, this study contributes also, in a small way, to new insights of the situation in Sweden's detention centres and the importance of a successful collaboration between the Migration Agency and NGOs for the detainee’s rights.

Abstract:

This thesis interrogates immigration detention as a space of intricate ambivalence - one which seeks to exclude, but which is also entreated to protect. The focus is so-called ‘unauthorised’ asylum seekers detained both within Australia and offshore on the Pacific island of Nauru between 1999 and 2003 - when the numbers of detained asylum seekers reached its maximum and the government introduced offshore processing centres. Australia’s immigration detention regime sits awkwardly with the discourse of universal human rights and brings into sharp conflict two robust political values: the right of endangered people to seek refuge and the right of the nation to determine who will enter. Focusing on the experiences of detainees reveals immigration detention as a complex regime through which the state’s dominating power targets the stateless, non-white, male body. This targeting is intentional, serving to secure sovereign borders and to rearticulate the naturalised ties between the national population and the modern state. Immigration detention holds the seeker in a limbo that sets parameters for the seeker’s experience of ongoing and intensifying insecurity. It specifically and intentionally fractures the identity of detainees: masochistic actions and collective protests, from hunger strikes to breakouts, reflect the common currency of anxiety and violence. The creation of offshore camps was, in part, a response to ongoing protests within onshore detention and the failure of onshore detention to stop boat arrivals. My chief focus here is the largest Pacific camp, ‘Topside’, on the island of Nauru. Unlike the onshore detention centres where publicised protests and breakouts screamed of continuing detention of asylum seekers, those on Nauru were effectively silenced. The thesis explores purpose as inscribed within the body of the exile. To give up hope for asylum is to face the possibility of endless wandering and death. Mechanisms of resistance, whether explicit protest or more passive waiting, are parts of the continuing struggle by the detained against mechanisms of exclusion and exception. The detained carve out small openings to contest their exclusion and to reassert an identity as survivors. There is a complex and fluid interplay between such resistance and government policies aiming to silence protest and limit identity – and ultimately to deter all unauthorised boat arrivals.

Abstract:

Rehabilitation Centres receive both children in need of protection and youths who have committed a criminal offence. In all cases, the Centre's mandate is to help them readjust to society. In pursuing this mandate, educators resort to measures of seclusion, time-out or withdrawal, whether for therapeutic or disciplinary reasons. All of these measures, however one wishes to call them, may be effected through confinement. The children are thus liable to be locked into their own room, into a specially designed time-out room or into a seclusion room, the time of confinement lasting anywhere from a few minutes to a few hours. Some rehabilitation programs, calling for measures such as time-out or withdrawal, currently allow for the possibility of confining a child in a locked room for some twenty hours a day, for several consecutive days.
From a legal standpoint, confinement may constitute a form of therapy, or it may constitute a disciplinary measure. Depending on the reason for its implementation, seclusion therefore falls under different legal provisions. Yet in all cases, seclusion remains a coercive measure with a strong punitive component. It would therefore be logical for all confinement measures to be governed by the same set of legal rules. Furthermore, the framework provided by health services legislation, which is based on consent to treatment, does not properly account for such measures. Regulating the disciplinary powers of educators, especially their power to lock up children in closed rooms, would be an approach better suited to the actual needs of children.

Abstract:

This research thesis investigates news journalists?? role in the promotion and protection of peace and human rights. I explore how news journalists do not just have the ability, through the discursive selections they make, to be a catalyst for peace and non-violent solutions, it is their obligation under international human rights. My study links arguments about universal ethics for media based on international human rights with the practical and analytical approach of ??peace journalism??. The main argument rests on the idea that objectivity or impartiality in news journalism does not equal ethical neutrality since there is always a discursive selection made by the news journalists. In order to monitor whether news journalists discursive selections comply with the international human rights obligations, I have explored how the Human Rights and Equal Opportunities Commission (HREOC) report A Last Resort? were covered in three Australian newspapers when it was published in 2004. The HREOC report was a testament of human rights abuses by the Australian Federal Governments towards children in Australian detention centres. I establish that health professionals were a significant group for both HREOC??s main findings and recommendations and a key group for the contextualisation of the human rights violations explored and exposed in the HREOC report. Informed by conflict analysis and peace studies theories I argue HREOC establish how the detention policy equals ??structural violence?? that caused ??direct violence??, which was justified and normalised because ??cultural violence??. I use discourse analysis to explore the discursive selections in the newspapers, and establish that the report received limited coverage and health professionals were omitted in the news while the political conflict was reported. This trivialised the report and health professionals?? role, which led to the naturalisation and normalisation of the violence. I finally reinforce these finding by exploring alternatives to the coverage using a peace journalism framework, which further clarifies the subjective nature of the discursive selection.

Abstract:

Les établissements pour personnes âgées, les centres pénitentiaires et les monastères, trois univers à priori très différents. Et pourtant, nous y avons constaté des similarités qui nous ont amenés à réfléchir sur la problématique suivante : Quelles dynamiques psychiques interagissent dans une institution totale (Goffman, 1968) qui accueille des personnes sur le long terme, d’une part selon que le mode d’entrée principal y soit choisi, contraint ou forcé, et d’autre part selon que le sujet ait la capacité de quitter librement l’institution ou non ? Cette question nous permet de penser les liens mouvants et interdépendants entre le sujet, l’institution et la société. Dans cette étude, c’est à la rencontre de l’humain que nous allons, qu’il soit âgé et dépendant, prisonnier, soignant, surveillant ou moine. Leurs témoignages nous amènent à repenser lesquestions de l’ego, de la paix, de la liberté et de l’amou
Retirement homes, detention centers and monasteries : at first sight, these three institutions seem to be very different. Nevertheless, we noticed similarities which led us to ask ourselves the following question: What are the psychic dynamics involved in a total institution (GOFFMAN, 1968) which receives persons on a long-term basis, depending on whether the main admission mode is chosen, constrained or forced, or whether the subject has the ability to leave the institution freely or not ? This question allow us to think about the shifting and independent links between people, institution and society. This study is about meeting differents humans whether they are old and dependant, prisoner, nurse, prison warder or monks. Their testimonies invite us to reconsider the question of ego, peace, freedom and love

Abstract:

Première forme de traitement spécialisé pour mineurs délinquants depuis la moitié du 19ème, l’enfermement est, à l’heure actuelle, la réponse qui occupe le devant de la scène politico-médiatique face à la délinquance des jeunes en Belgique. Depuis la fin des années 70, les dénonciations du « manque de places » en régime fermé sont fréquemment relayées. L’augmentation de la capacité institutionnelle est la réponse apportée par les pouvoirs publics. Pourtant, rares sont les connaissances empiriques existantes qui portent sur le fonctionnement « concret » de ces institutions qui allient des missions sécuritaires et éducatives. Maigres sont aussi les productions qui cherchent à dépasser les paroles des intervenants et des jeunes pour saisir « in situ » les modes respectifs de socialisation et les rapports qui interviennent entre ces acteurs.

C’est au regard de ces premiers constats que le projet de thèse de doctorat en criminologie, intitulée « L’enfermement des mineurs poursuivis par la justice. Ethnographie de trois institutions de la Communauté française », a vu le jour. Comprendre le fonctionnement des trois institutions d’enfermement en Communauté française en se basant sur une approche ethnographique paraissait pertinent.

La thèse s’articule autour de trois parties. La première pose le cadre historique et contemporain de l’enfermement en Belgique et présente un bilan critique (recension, synthèse et examen) des connaissances produites sur ces institutions en Communauté française. La seconde explicite les choix méthodologiques empruntés ainsi que les questionnements réflexifs qui se sont imposés durant les immersions. La troisième constitue le véritable cœur de la thèse et présente sept thématiques ressorties suite à l’analyse inductive du matériel d’immersion, suivant le cheminement dans l’enfermement et la progression dans le quotidien institutionnel :la structuration des espaces qui révèle la conception dichotomique de la vie communautaire s’y déroulant avec d’un côté les jeunes, de l’autre les professionnels ;la présentation des acteurs et de leurs modes de socialisation respectifs ;les différents temps du placement :un temps court cadenassé et un temps long qui se doit d’être libéré et rentabilisé ;les rapports entre intervenants et jeunes où l’observation réciproque permet aux uns d’assumer leurs fonctions officielles (sécuriser, éduquer, évaluer), aux autres d’apprendre à être observés et ce faisant de développer des processus de résistance « en coulisse » ;les ressorts de l’humour :rire « entre soi » « des autres » qui permet tantôt la cohésion, tantôt l’exclusion ;des parcours de placement qui mobilisent les équipes et révèlent les limites du régime fermé, les moments particuliers où les enjeux de l’enfermement se dévoilent et des embryons de confiance se décèlent loin du quotidien collectif, loin du regard « des siens » et « des autres ».

Dans cette perspective, les rapprochements entre les jeunes et les adultes, la confiance et le sens qui peuvent en découler pour les jeunes, s’observent particulièrement dans les interstices de l’enfermement, loin des normes rigides qui le gouvernent. Et il apparait que ce sont surtout les missions d’évaluation demandées par les autorités mandantes qui nuisent à la relation de confiance. Cette observation complexifie les réflexions scientifiques antérieures qui mettaient en évidence le caractère paradoxal des objectifs sécuritaires et éducatifs de ces institutions. Ce n’est pas uniquement le « duel » sécuriser / éduquer ou aider mais bien, le « triptyque » sécuriser / éduquer ou aider / évaluer et communiquer qui caractérise la « prise en charge » dans l’enfermement et qui mérite d’être davantage questionné et investigué.

Abstract:

Abstract In 2001, the Australian government implemented the Pacific Solution, which is known today as Operation Sovereign Borders. This policy is designed to hold asylum-seekers arriving by boat to Australia on Pacific islands that are geographically and politically external to Australia, keeping them in what is commonly known as offshore processing and detention centers. This thesis examines the way in which these offshore processing detention centers are portrayed in the media and provides a comparative study between Australian and international publications through qualitative text analysis of the consistently occurring themes in news coverage of the issue. The importance of the thesis originates from the previous lack of international media coverage and criticism revolving around the offshore processing detention centers.

The following research project seeks to answer the question: “To what extent can differences among juvenile detention centers be explained on the basis of concepts of restorative and retributive justice?” To investigate, mission statements were collected from a national sample of Juvenile Detention Centers. A semantic network analysis was performed to answer the above research question. The computer program CATPAC was used to create 2-d images of the semantic analysis. From these images eight themes emerged through clusters: institutional identity, public safety, life skill values, family and child tie, and community and family tie, support from staff, support from environment, and support from environment and staff. These themes were reflective of retributive or restorative orientation. Results indicate that male public institutions are reflective of retributive justice while female public, male private, and female private institutions are more reflective of restorative justice. These findings suggest biases and treatment patterns within the juvenile justice system.

Abstract:

Association d'origine protestante, la Cimade naît en 1939 pour venir en aide aux Alsaciens-Lorrains repliés dans le sud-ouest de la France. Son action s'oriente vers l'accueil des réfugiés dans les lieux d'enfermement et de relégation. Son histoire permet d'aborder sous un angle particulier les années 1940, les camps d'internement français et la Shoah, la Libération, l'épuration, la reconstruction et les mutations du système pénitentiaire. La Cimade œuvre durant la Guerre d'Algérie auprès des populations algériennes dans les camps de regroupement et en métropole dans les centres d'accueil des familles harkies comme indochinoises et dans les bidonvilles où vivent les travailleurs post-coloniaux. Enfin,le gouvernement fait appel à la Cimade en 1984 pour intervenir dans les centres de rétention administrative auprès des étrangers reconduits à la frontière. Sa présence est exclusive jusqu'en 2007. L'histoire de cette association permet de saisir comment d'une assistance humanitaire, l'action bascule vers une "juridiciarisation" dès les années 1970. La continuité de sa présence livre une lecture originale de la gestion des étrangers en France. Interface entre "le dedans et le dehors", la Cimade est en tension permanente avec l'Etat. Association de terrain, pouvant sembler participer à la cogestion du système de l'enfermement, elle ne renonce pas à son militantisme ancré à gauche et dénonce ce qu'elle considère comme des cas d'injustices. Son action est représentative de l'ambiguïté de l'interventionnisme associatif. Ce travail de thèse met en lumière les repositionnements et la progressive sécularisation d'une association protestante qui traverse une partie du XXème siècle,"siècle des camps"
Originally a Protestant association,the Cimade was created in 1939 to help people from Alsace-Lorraine,who had taken refuge in the south-west of France.Its action was mainly based on welcoming refugees in confinement and banishment places.Its history helps to understand the 1940s,the French internment camps and the Shoah as well as the purge then post-war reconstruction and the penitentiary reform.During the Algerian war,the association worked both in grouping camps in Algeria and in France where the members of the FLN were assigned.During decolonisation,it gave assistance to harkies and Indochinese families in reception centres as well as to post-colonial workers in shanty towns.As soon as 1984,the government urged the Cimade to work with foreigners escorted to the border in administrative confinement centres.Its presence was exclusive until 2007.The history of this association helps to understand how humanitarian assistance became a cause lawering in the early 1970s.Its permanent presence in camps enables us to consider the specific approach to the governments policies concerning foreigners in France.Working as an interface between "the inside and the outside",the Cimade,throughout its history,was in constant tension with govenments.Although being an association in the field,seemingly involved in joint management of the confinement system,the Cimade didn’t give up its left-centered activism, denouncing what they considered as a justice denial. Its action is representative of the ambiguities of the associations interventionism.This research highlights the repositioning and the progressive secularization of the association throughout the 20th century,the century of camps

Abstract:

The purpose of this study is to develop a theoretically viable and empirically detailed analysis of the emergence of the Detention Centre in the young offender sector of the English penal system. In doing so, it is intended to eradicate the hiatus created by either an absence of research, or by research which has been unable or unconcerned for epistemological reasons to address the Detention Centre's problematic emergence in English penal history - both in Its 'pre-legislative' stage, and in its period of development ,from a minority to a majority form of disposal, and through to its threatened demise in the mid-1970's. The central methodological concern of this study is to situate the analysis within the parameters of what has been termed the breaking of the hegemony of the prison for young offenders, and informed by a contingent and complementary analysis of the history of socio-political, economic and cultural developments throughout the period, from the late nineteenth century to the mid-1970's. Concomitant upon this has been an analysis of the manner in which the British state has struggled to maintain the balance between consent and coercion in the interests of a ruling class hegemony. The study falls into three main sections: the first section deals with the gradual emergence of the hegemony of the prison in the late eighteenth and the nineteenth centuries, situating within this the creation of a specifically young offender sector. The second section addresses itself to the history of the maintenance and development of this sector, and, within this, the struggle of the 'short-term movement' in the young offender disposal system. The final section offers an analysis of the emergence of the Detention Centre in its post-legislative stage, examining the history of its first two, contrasting, decades, and leading to the apparent demise by the mid-1970's. Finally, it is necessary to take cogaisance of the importance of the recourse to an analysis at the concrete level of a large amount of empirical data available, much of it for the first time, through the auspices of the Public Records Office. These documents have played no small a part in the analysis with which the middle section of this study is concerned.

Abstract:

The primary purpose of this study was to examine successful instructional practices that promote high academic achievement for at-risk students in juvenile detention centers, and possibly lead to a reduction in recidivism in the juvenile justice system. A case study was conducted at 2 Los Angeles juvenile detention centers, known as "The Sports Camp" and "The Vocational Camp." Qualitative research methods provided data triangulated from a document and artifact examination, interviews, and observations. Analysis of the data suggests that, contrary to popular belief, there are successful instructional practices that positively impact student academic achievement. However, the findings also indicate that extenuating circumstances prevent some students from taking advantage f their educational opportunities. Although the Los Angeles County Office of Education (LACOE) is committed to improving educational outcomes for incarcerated youth, there are no magic formulas or solutions. Therefore, multiple strategies will be needed to significantly improve educational outcomes for students in this nontraditional school setting.

En este trabajo se evaluaran las relaciones entre el consumo de tabaco y otros factores socioculturales presentes en jóvenes internados en centros de diagnóstico y rehabilitación. Los datos cualitativos recolectados en el censo del año 2016, a través de series de preguntas relacionadas al consumo y estilo de vida, serán cuantificados comparados a través de diferentes metodologías. Factores como: sexo, edad, abuso físico en la niñez, episodios de ansiedad, consumo de otras drogas, historia familiar de consumo de tabaco, etc. serán analizados. Como se describirá próximamente, según la OMS, el consumo de Tabaco es considerado como una enfermedad crónica, y se asocia a múltiples problemas de salud no solo en el consumidor, sino también en los fumadores pasivos. El componente mas importante es la nicotina, ya que es la que genera adicción y por lo tanto dependencia de los cigarrillos. La nicotina es un alcaloide encontrado en la planta del tabaco. Es difícil encontrar algún país en el cual disminuir el consumo no sea una prioridad, por lo que sorprende seguir viendo cifras tan altas de consumo a pesar de la gran cantidad de leyes, impuestos y propaganda que pretenden luchar en contra de este habito nocivo. En este estudio transversal, se evalúa como el ambiente sociocultural afecta los valores de consumo en estos jóvenes. Para el propósito de este ensayo, el ambiente sociocultural considera factores como: la familia, el nivel de educación, ambiente físico, cultura y las instituciones con las cuales el individuo interactúa.

Full text

Abstract:

The purpose of this study was to investigate the influence of leadership behaviors on youth specialist turnover in juvenile detention facilities. Youth specialist turnover causes financial burdens, staff shortages, and places incarcerated youth at risk for abuse (Minor et al., 2010). This quantitative study used a non-probability convenience sample of the superintendents and assistant superintendents of 37 juvenile detention centers in Ohio. In this study, the leadership behaviors of these juvenile detention leaders were self identified as possessing transformational, transactional, and passive avoidant leadership attributes using the Multifactor Leadership Questionnaire Leader form 5X short. Two additional questions were included in the survey that measured youth specialist turnover rates for their respective detention centers. No statistically significant relationship existed between self identified leadership behaviors and youth specialist turnover. However, the safety of children confined in a detention center is dependent on the retention of quality youth specialists (Carter, 2014).

Abstract:

The Ottawa-Carleton Detention Centre (OCDC) is notorious for its austere conditions of confinement and human rights violations. In response to widespread criticism, the Ontario provincial government created a dedicated task force in 2016 to address longstanding issues at the jail. To date, little research has examined how OCDC has maintained these deplorable conditions of confinement despite concerted effort to improve them. Drawing on Mathiesen’s (1990) neutralization techniques, this thesis reveals the tactics used by government officials and jail functionaries to maintain the status quo at OCDC and stifle transformative change by comparing task force recommendations with their ensuing implementation. Through a qualitative content analysis of the OCDC task force progress reports, trend analyses, Ombudsman, Community Advisory Board, Independent Review of Corrections, and Jail Accountability & Information Line reports documenting issues at OCDC, I demonstrate how the Ontario provincial government and OCDC administration (a) refer to competing demands, higher authority, policy and procedure, or safety and security as excuses for not instituting changes, (b) define policy alternatives as irrelevant or impossible to implement, (c) postpone implementation of measures for not being developed enough or possible now, as well as (d) puncture and (e) absorb policy alternatives to uphold the status quo and impede transformative change. In doing so, I expose the provincial penal system’s proclivity to ‘finish’ (Mathiesen, 1974) alternatives that threaten the current system, thereby gutting new ideas of their ability to generate meaningful social change. The insights provided by this thesis help lay the groundwork for future critical criminological research to examine the barriers to social change in the penal field on a sub-national, national, and international scale.

Due to the amplified number of migrants being deported, the number of individuals in U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) detention centers has also increased. Consequently, this phenomenon has raised concerns regarding undocumented migrants’ access to medical services in these facilities. This research project was conducted in order to assess the quality of medical and health care services in ICE detention centers in the state of Arizona. It also examined whether the ICE operational manuals and detention standards on medical care were being followed and were consistent with the Universal Declaration of Human Rights. The findings indicated that ICE was not compliant with a major portion of their Performance-Based National Detention Standards on medical care and thus, were violating the basic human rights of undocumented immigrants in detention centers as stated in the Universal Declaration of Human Rights.

Abstract:

This thesis evaluates the policy of mandatory detention for asylum seekers maintained by successive Australian governments against several core liberal principles. These principles are derived from various accounts of liberal political thought and the major themes and criticisms inherent in the public debate over the policy. The justifications of the policy given by the Australian government and the criticisms enunciated by scholars, refugee advocates and non-government organisations with respect to the policy strongly correspond with the core liberal principles of fairness, protecting the rights of the individual, accountability and proportionality. The claims of the critics converge on a central point of contention: that the mandatory detention of asylum seekers violates core liberal principles. To ascertain the extent to which the claims of the critics can be supported, the thesis selectively draws on liberal political theory to provide a framework for the analysis of the policy against these liberal principles, a basis for inquiry largely neglected by contributors to the literature. This thesis argues that, on balance, the mandatory detention policy employed by successive Australian governments violates core liberal principles. The claims of the critics are weakened, but by no means discredited, by the importance of the government's maintenance of strong border control. In the main, however, criticisms made by opponents of the policy can be supported. This thesis contributes to the substantial body of literature on the mandatory detention policy by shedding light on how liberal principles may be applicable to the mandatory detention policy. Further, it aims to contribute to an enriched understanding of the Australian government's competence to detain asylum seekers.

Abstract:

Youth delinquency is a major social problem in the United States with approximately 29% of youths aged 18 to 21 reoffending within the first year of release in Massachusetts. Given the amount of state resources used for youth corrections, the factors that encourage the youth to reoffend become important to understand. The purpose of this quantitative, cross-sectional correlational study was to examine whether community and environmental risks and resources are related with successful reentry of youth returning from detention centers in Massachusetts. Using the collective efficacy and routine activities theory to explain the motivations to reoffend, the study sought to answer whether the level of neighborhood risks, availability of jobs, availability of schooling, and availability of prosocial activities have an effect on recidivism rates. Publicly available data consisting of 347 youth returning from Massachusetts detention centers in 2008 were analyzed using logistic regression. The results showed that available neighborhood resources such as schooling and prosocial activities were statistically related with the rates of reoffending among youth reentering the community following incarceration. These results have important policy-making, education, and legal implications in reducing the reoffending rate of juveniles who have been released from incarceration. Educators, detention center personnel, and the community can benefit by collaborating to provide youth offenders with a special learning community that focuses on educating youth during and after release, thereby increasing the chances of successful reentry.

Abstract:

Governments around the world use immigration detention to detain and deport irregular immigrants, which negatively affects their health. The aim of this thesis was to explore, describe and identify factors that could mitigate the effect of immigration detention on the health of detainees. This was a mixed method study using qualitative methods (Papers I and II), quantitative methods (Paper III) and descriptive case comparison (Paper IV) comparing the Swedish system to the system in the Benelux countries (Belgium, the Netherlands and Luxembourg). The study design was strengthened by triangulation of methods and data sources. Detainees experienced lack of control over their own lives due to lack of information in a language they can understand, inadequate responses from detention staff and restrictions within detention centers further limiting their liberty. Duration of detention was negatively associated with satisfaction of services provided in detention and the detainees’ Quality of Life (QOL). Detainees had low QOL domain scores with the psychological domain having the lowest score (41.9/100). The most significant factor positively associated with the QOL of detainees was the support received from detention staff. A sense of fear was present among detainees and staff. Detainees’ fear was due to their inadequate interaction with authorities, perceiving it as threatening, and due to their worry of facing repercussions of being involved in incidents caused by others. The potential for physical threat from detainees created a sense of fear among the staff. The detention staff expressed the need for more support to manage their emotional dilemma and role conflict of being a civil servant, simultaneously enabling the deportation process while providing humane care to detainees as fellow human beings. Detention centers in the Benelux countries had more categories of staff providing different services to detainees. Compared to the Benelux countries, healthcare services at the Swedish detention centers were limited. Detainees were offered no medical screening on arrival and no regular access to mental healthcare professionals. Detaining authorities have the obligation to safeguard the health of detainees. Challenges faced by the detention staff and detainees must be addressed to create a supportive environment and fulfill that obligation.

Resumo: Desde o início da década de 1990, os países-membros da União Européia tem se movido em direção a políticas e leis de imigração cada vez mais repressivas, punitivas e de amplo caráter discriminatório. A intensificação desta política bem como a militarização progressiva de suas fronteiras tem construído o fenômeno político denominado fortaleza Europa, constituído por muros reais e virtuais, pela vigilância constante tanto dos limites territoriais como do próprio espaço público e pelas práticas sancionadas pelos Estados de estigmatização dos imigrantes, refugiados e solicitantes de asilo com base em sua origem cultural, fenótipo e etnia. Neste contexto, o Estado italiano aparece como um caso exemplar desta nova política, pautada pela ótica da emergência, da exclusão de todos os seres considerados indesejáveis e pelo racismo de ordem cultural, que concebe o estrangeiro como incapaz de se adaptar aos valores ocidentais, sobretudo aos valores italianos. Esta dissertação tem como objeto a política italiana para imigração, cujo pilar principal é constituído pela instauração dos Centros de Permanência Temporária, espaço de exceção nos quais são confinados os imigrantes ilegais, refugiados e solicitantes de asilo, e nos quais se efetua a espoliação do estatuto jurídico destes seres, convertendo-os em não-pessoas. Nesse sentido, a análise destes espaços e da política que os criou pode ser capaz de revelar o sentido da reaplicação de esquemas racistas na configuração das relações sociais,bem como o lugar ocupado pelo paradigma da segurança e da exceção, nos quais se pautam diversos Estados europeus e que redefinem a política na atualidade
Abstract: Since the early 1990s, member states of the European Union (EU) have moved toward policies and immigration laws increasingly repressive, punitive and discriminatory. The intensification of these policies and the gradual militarization of EU's borders have built a political phenomenon called Fortress Europe, which consists of real and virtual walls, constant surveillance by both the territorial limits and the very public space and practices sanctioned by the States of stigmatization of immigrants, refugees and asylum seekers based on their cultural background, ethnicity and phenotype. In this context, the Italian State appears as a striking example of this new policy, guided by the optics of emergency, the exclusion of all beings that are considered undesirable, and by cultural racism that sees the foreigner as unable to adapt to Western values, especially Italian values. This thesis aims at Italian immigration policy, which main point is the establishment of Temporary Stay and Assistance Centers. These centers are states of exception in which illegal immigrants, refugees and asylum seekers are confined to, their legal status is spoiled, and thus, they are turned into non-persons. In this sense, the analysis of these states and the politics that created them may reveal the meaning of racist reapplication regimens in the social relations set, and the place occupied by the security and exception paradigm, in which several European States are governed redefining the political scene today

Abstract:

Dans un contexte de contrôle accru de l’immigration irrégulière et de la gestion serrée des frontières, de quelle manière, selon quelles modalités, par quelles directives et selon quelles applications, l’enfermement des étrangers en instance d’éloignement du territoire français, participe-t-il à la préparation de cette expulsion ?Cette thèse s’intéresse à la gestion de l’enfermement des étrangers dans un centre de rétention administrative (CRA), selon deux aspects centraux, la surveillance et le soin, et elle se focalise, à travers des pratiques de police et de santé, sur le rôle de cet enfermement dans la mise en œuvre de l’expulsion. Elle s’inscrit dans les travaux d’anthropologie de l’Etat et de la police et dans ceux de la sociologie de l’immigration et des lieux d’enfermement.Elle montre comment différentes formes de directives, propres à l’enfermement des étrangers, trouvent leur incarnation dans des agents dont les pratiques sont la résultante à la fois d’applications directes de ces directives et surtout de leurs aménagements, propres à la gestion des contradictions, découlant de ce lieu.Cette thèse s’intéresse d’abord aux pratiques de police fixées autour de la surveillance qui, dans le cadre de la gestion de certaines contradictions, propres à la rétention, devient, par glissement, un travail d’attente et d’anticipation, sous des formes allant de l’expectative à la recherche d’informations jusqu’aux stratégies locales de contrainte et de conditionnement. Elle se focalise ensuite sur les pratiques de santé, en montrant combien les enjeux de l’enfermement et de l’expulsion viennent à les façonner, de manière profonde, au point qu’elles soient parties prenant d’un processus de sélection et de différenciation. Elle s’intéresse enfin, dans ce travail global de préparation, aux effets des rapports entre la police et les professionnels de santé, dans cette gestion d’une population enfermée, tenue par la menace d’une expulsion. Cette thèse restitue, en somme, différentes pratiques, différents positionnements politiques et moraux, d’agents travaillant dans un dispositif de contrôle, administré par l’Etat, confrontés dans leur travail à des contradictions et à des conflits moraux.Ce travail est le fruit d’une enquête ethnographique mené au sein d’un CRA et d’entretiens et d’observations ciblés auprès d’acteurs appartenant à des lieux dont le CRA est dépendant
In the wings of the deportation from french territory, between surveillance and assistance : Ethnographic exploration in a French Immigration Detention CentreIn a context of increasing control of irregular immigration and the tight management of borders, in what manner, according to what terms, by which directives and which applications, does the incarceration of foreigners pending to be expulsed from French territory participate in the preparation of this expulsion? This thesis deals with the management of the confinement of foreigners in a French Immigration Detention Centre, according to two central aspects, monitoring and care, and she focuses, through the practices of police and health, on the role of this imprisonment in the implementation of expulsion. It fits in the anthropology of the State and the police work and in those of the sociology of immigration and of the places of confinement. It shows how different forms of directives, specific to the confinement of foreigners, are embodied in agents whose practices are the result both of direct applications of these guidelines and especially their facilities, specific to the management of contradictions, arising from this place. This thesis focuses first on police practices fixed around surveillance which, under the management of contradictions, proper to the retention, becomes by a shift to a job of expectation and anticipation, in forms ranging from expectantly looking for information to local strategies of constraint and conditioning. It then focuses on the practices of health, by showing how the confinement and deportation issues come to shape them, in a profound way, to the point that they are involved in the process of selection and differentiation. Finally she deals with this comprehensive preparatory work, to the effects of the relationship between the police and health professionals, in the management of an incarcerated population, held by the threat of expulsion. This thesis renders, in sum, different practices, and different political and moral positions of the agents that are working in a control system, administered by the State, that are faced in their work to contradictions and moral conflicts. This work is the fruit of an ethnographic investigation conducted within a French Immigration Detention Centre and targeted interviews and observations with actors belonging to places on which the French Immigration Detention Centre is dependent

O estudo dissertado desenvolve uma análise sobre aspectos contemporâneos da criminalidade verificada no Brasil, com um dedicado confronto de dados estatísticos com os de outros países no escopo de melhor dimensionar a gravidade de estado em que se encontra o Estado Brasileiro em função da indigência jurídico-institucional Sabe-se muito pouco sobre a radiografia e o funcionamento do Sistema Penitenciário nacional. As informações são precárias e limitadas. As prisões e os presos são também muito desconhecidos. A limitadíssima bibliografia disponível sobre prisões no Brasil é o maior indicador da falta de interesse de pesquisadores sobre o assunto. Sem informações qualitativas e dados estatísticos confiáveis, o sistema penitenciário tem poucas ou nenhuma chance de mudança. Resgatou-se ensinamentos de Beccaria no fito de auxiliar na apreciação conceitual de dados hodiernos. Analisou-se a relação existente entre a sociedade e o trabalho, o surgimento do trabalho, sua necessidade e importância no âmbito social e prisional. Estuda-se ainda o trabalho como um dos sinônimos teleológicos da sanção penal. Teve-se, propositadamente, a idéia de adaptar um projeto do próprio governo estadual (Ceará) denominado CVT , procurando inseri-lo (adaptá-lo) na realidade penitenciária, isso com o escopo de já encontrar uma justificativa para que o Poder Público (Governo), não tenha motivação em alegar carência projeto, provocando, com isso, o despertar da vontade política. Destarte, o dissertar que se pretende desenvolver terá este tema desafiador como alvo-mor, elaborando uma abordagem fotográfica da realidade penitenciária nacional, inclinando-se para uma visão particular do objeto no Estado do Ceará, tencionando, ao final, a apresentação de uma proposta que persiga estratégias de trabalho aos detentos do sistema penitenciário com forte repercussão no egresso do sistema, através do ensino profissionalizante adequado às peculiaridades e vocações primárias de cada um, capacitando-os para o trabalho seja ele agropecuário, industrial ou artesanal

Abstract:

A crença no potencial humano de auto-regulação, na capacidade inerente da pessoa direcionar a sua vida em busca de algo melhor para si e na tendência direcional atualizante de todas as coisas do Universo foi o que moveu esse trabalho desde o início. A hipótese de que presidiários pudessem processar mudanças significativas em suas vidas desde que oferecidas as condições necessárias e suficientes para a expansão do self permeou as atividades oferecidas. Nessa busca de compreensão do processo de expansão do self no encontro da psicologia com a arte e a profissão, procurou-se os estudos de Carl Ramson Rogers e Augusto Boal. Este estudo buscou compreender como a psicologia (psicoterapia), a arte (teatro) e a profissão (emprego) poderiam facilitar o processo de crescimento de presidiários, ajudando-os a repensarem e a planejarem suas vidas, possibilitando o retorno ao meio social, familiar e pessoal. Foram colhidos onze depoimentos de oito colaboradores participantes do Projeto Pontilhado, na cidade de Porto Velho/RO, cuja peça teatral foi baseada em suas histórias de vida. Esse projeto foi desenvolvido do ano de 1999 a 2004. O estudo de abordagem qualitativa procurou seguir as especificidades da pesquisa-ação. O instrumento para coleta de dados foi a entrevista individual, não-diretiva, gravada em áudio. Na busca dos elementos significativos que compareceram em seus depoimentos, procurou-se agrupar as experiências comuns que os conduziram ao processo de transformação de suas vidas: O desvelar do self; Percepção de Psicologia; Percepção da Arte; Percepção da Profissão; Predisposição à mudança; Término do Projeto e Caminhos para tirar uma pessoa do mundo do crime. As percepções que os presidiários tiveram de seu organismo, de suas experiências, das relações entre elas, do mundo à sua volta e a consciência desses acontecimentos possibilitou-lhes a se desenvolver, crescer e a se transformar, num trabalho conjunto com o seu organismo. A abertura aos dados da experiência interior e do mundo externo, ampliando o campo da percepção, foi possibilitada pelos exercícios teatrais psicodramáticos, do trabalho psicoterapêutico, no desenvolvimento de uma atividade produtiva e remunerada além do acompanhamento fora das ações previstas. Foi um conjunto de atividades que possibilitaram aos presidiários e ex-presidiários se libertarem das barreiras psicológicas que impediam o crescimento. Esse estudo demonstrou que existe a possibilidade de se contribuir para a melhoria de vida das pessoas que se encontram presas, proporcionando novas formas de perceberem e enfrentarem a saída da prisão. Na expansão do self, as atividades psicodramáticas do teatro e o encontro psicoterápico ajudam nesse crescimento, a profissão sustenta essa determinação e o apoio ampara nos momentos de crise, quando a pessoa realmente se predispõe a sair do mundo do crime.
The belief in the auto-regulative human potential, in the persons inherent ability to lead her or his life in search of something better and the faith in the updating directive tendency of everything in the Universe moved this work from the very beginning. The hypothesis that the prisoners could process significant changes in their lives once we offer the needed and sufficient conditions in order to expand the self permeated our activities. Searching to understand the expanding process of the self in the meeting of psychology, art and profession, we based on Carl Ramson Rogerss and August Boals works as support. This study explored how psychology (psychotherapy), the art (theatre) and profession (job) may facilitate the growing process of prisoners, helping them to rethink and plan their lives, making the social, familiar and personal way back possible. We collected eleven reports from eight participant collaborators of the Projeto Pontilhado in the city of Porto Velho-Rondônia, Brazil, whose play was based on their history of life. This project was developed in the years 1999 and 2004. We use the qualitative approach taking into consideration the action-research. The tool for the data collect was a non-directive personal interview recorded in audio. In the search for meaningful elements visible in their statements, we searched to gather the common experiences that led to the transformative process in their lives: the unveiling of the self; Psychology perception; Art Perception; Profession Perception; Predisposition to change; the end of the project and ways of taking a person out of criminality. The perception that the prisoners had of their own organism, their experiences, their relations among themselves, their surroundings and the consciousness of these happenings made them grow, develop and transform themselves in persons in a work together with their organism. The opening of their interior experience and of the outer world was possible due to psycodramatic theatrical exercises, psychotherapeutic work, in the development of a productive and paid activity, beside the work together out of the foreseen activities. It was a set of activities which made possible to the prisoners and ex-prisoners to get free from psychological barriers which prevented any human growth. This study revealed that there is a possibility of contributing to a better life of people who are in prison. It is possible to offer new forms of viewing life out of prison. In the expansion of the self the psychodrama and the psychotherapeutic meeting help this growth; the profession supports people in the moment of crime when the person is really willing to leave the criminal world.

Abstract:

The thesis revolves around the question of whether state and non-state actors’ responses to the refugee crises are restricting the rights of refugees by introducing privatization of security. The thesis studies the experiences of refugees in offshore immigration detention centres of Australia and the UN operated refugee camps, which are highly privatized or are in a process of privatization. The thesis rests on the theoretical framework provided by Hannah Arendt which explains why human rights are failing refugees in this context, and how they remain meaningless until the 'right to have rights' is incorporated as a basic right. The thesis argues that privatization of security is harmful and results in increased human rights violations and that the private military and security companies are a way of delegating as well as deflecting responsibility that state actors and non-state actors have towards refugees. The thesis also raises the possibility of private resettlement programs as one of the solutions to ensure the right of belongingness is translated practically by giving refugees a community.

Abstract:

The purpose of this qualitative, phenomenological study was to explore the support of juvenile offender learners in correctional schools from a wellness perspective. The support of juvenile offender learners on the six dimensions of wellness is crucial since it has a wide range of benefits, it links achievement of teaching and learning, and rehabilitation and avoid recidivism. The study integrates Ubuntu and Wellness frameworks (Hettler, 1984) as a lens to understand the support of juvenile offender learners’ wellness in the correctional schools. The two frameworks informed the formulated Wellness framework as an approach to address and support wellness in active teaching and learning of the juvenile learners in the correctional schools. Data collection methods used was semi- structured interviews, open-ended questionnaires and observations. The research used purposive sampling of 12 teachers and 21 juvenile offender learners from seven correctional schools in four different provinces in South Africa. Ethical considerations are followed this include how best to negotiate access to the correctional schools, signed consent forms, anonymity, and confidentiality. The findings of the study revealed inadequate support structures and challenges that threaten the wellness of juvenile learners. However, it was revealed that teachers make an effort to support juvenile offender learners’ wellness in the correctional schools. Conversely, there are gaps in terms of policy, theory, and practice on how they can effectively support juvenile learners. The major impediment is that teachers are trained to teach in mainstream schools not in the environment of imprisonment. The study recommends that teachers, Learner Support Assistant (LSA), Peer Educators (PE), and security official be trained on how to identify intellectual, physical, social, emotional, spiritual, and career challenges of juvenile learners and address them in order to improve their learning, and rehabilitate. The DCS can do this through collaboration with various stakeholders who have knowledge and expertise in the six-wellness dimensions. Hence, the study formulated the model called Collaborative Intervention Support for Wellness framework. It consists of five strategic support structures (DCS, and other governmental department, non-governmental stakeholders LSA and PE) that are to assist the teachers in the correctional schools to support and enhance the juvenile offender learners’ wellness.

Die doel van hierdie kwalitatiewe, fenomenologiese studie was om die ondersteuning van jeugoortredende leerders in korrektiewe skole vanuit ‘n welstandsperspektief te ondersoek. Die ondersteuning van jong jeugdige oortreders in die ses dimensies van welstand is van kardinale belang, aangesien dit ‘n wye verskeidenheid voordele inhou, verbind dit die prestasie van onderrig en leer, en rehabilitasie en vermy herhaling. Die studie integreer Ubuntu en wellness-raamwerke (Hettler,1984) as ‘n lens om die ondersteumning van jeugoortreders se welstand in die skole vir korrektiewe te verstaan. Die twee raamwerke het die geformuleerde welstand-raamwerk ingelig as ‘n benadering om welstand in die aktiewe onderrig en leer van jong leerder in die korrektiewe skole aan te spreek en te ondersteun. Metodes vir die insameling van data wat gebruik is, was semi-gestruktureerde onderhoude, oop vraelyste en waarnemings. In die navorsing is doelgerigte steekproefneming van 12 onderwysers en 21 jong oortreders van sewe korrektiewe skole in vier verskillende provinsies in Suid-Afrika gebruik. Etiese oorwegings word gevolg, dit sluit in hoe om die beste toegang tot die skole vir korrektiewe, ondertekende vorms van toestemming, anonimiteit en vertroulikheid te beding. Die bevindings van die studie het onvoldoende ondersteuningstrukture en uitdagings ontdek wat die welstand van jong leerders bedreig. Dit is egter aan die lig gebring dat onderwysers moeite doen om die welstand van die jeugoortreders in die korrektiewe skole te ondersteun. Daarteenoor is daar leemtes in terme van beleid, toerie en praktyk oor hoe hulle jong leerders effektief kan ondersteun. Die grooste struikelblok is dat onderwysers opgelei word om in hoofstroomskole onderrig te gee, nie die omgewing van gevangenisstraf nie. Die studie beveel aan dat onderwysers, LSA, PT en veiligheidsbeampte opgelei word in die identifisering van intellektuelle, fisieke, sosiale, emosionele, geestelike en loopbaanuitdagings van jong leerders en om hulle aan te spreek ten einde hul leer te verbeter en te rehabiliteer. Die DKD kan dit doen deur samewerking met verskillende belanghebbendes wat kennis en kundigheid het in die dimensies van ses welstand. Daarom het die studie die model genaamd “Collaborative Intervention Support for Wellness raamwerk geformuleer. Dit is ‘n kompromie van vyf strategies ondersteuningstrukture (DKD, en ander regeringsdepartemente, nie- regeringsbelangheggendes LSA, en portuurstudente) wat die onderwysers in die korrektiewe skole moet help om die welstand van die jeugoortreder te help en te verbeter.

Abstract:

O objecto deste estudo é a análise dos significados atribuídos à lei, ao crime, ao sistema de justiça de menores, seus actores, e à vivência ou experiência do internamento, do ponto de vista de jovens que cometeram actos tipificados pela lei penal como crimes. O sistema de justiça de menores poderá ser considerado, pela dita cultura dominante, como “um mundo dos Outros”. Estes “Outros” são reconhecidos como delinquentes, em parte por serem alvo da intervenção dos dispositivos especializados no controlo da delinquência juvenil. Neste estudo, atendemos, essencialmente, às perspectivas dos jovens a quem foi aplicada uma medida tutelar de internamento em Centro Educativo. Os métodos de recolha de dados foram entrevistas a 17 jovens internados, análise documental, e observação directa. No capítulo I, apresentamos os indicadores relativos ao seu perfil tutelar educativo (tipo de crimes, tipo de regime de internamento e sua duração), e ao seu perfil social (idade, escolaridade, estatuto socio-económico, área de residência). No capítulo II, realizamos uma retrospectiva histórica relativamente à saliência social dos crimes contra a propriedade, já que são os crimes mais cometidos por esta população. Ilustram-se os sentidos que os jovens dão à lei e ao crime. No capítulo III, exploramos a reacção social à criminalidade juvenil, e entrecruzamos conceitos jurídicos com os significados atribuídos pelos jovens aos tribunais e à polícia. No capítulo IV, exploramos os significados atribuídos pelos jovens ao internamento. Parte-se do princípio que, apesar dos Centros Educativos se aproximarem em muitos aspectos das Instituições Totais, são também dispositivos de trocas simbólicas.
In this research we analyse the meanings that law, crime, the juvenile justice system, its actors, and detention centres have for youths that have committed crimes. The juvenile justice system may be considered, by the so called “dominant culture”, as a “World of the Others”. This “Others” are formally recognized as delinquents, in part, because they are exposed do the action of social control devices. So, in this research we focus on youths perspectives. We selected those which were in detention centres. The methodological techniques utilized were semi-structured interviews, documental analysis, and direct observation. In chapter I, we identify the indicators of their criminal profile (type of crime, type of detention regime and its duration), and of their social profile (age, school grades, socio-economic status, and place of residence). In chapter II, the robbery social salience in History is analysed, because it’s the crime by which most youths go to detention centres. The meanings they give to law and crime are also illustrated. In chapter III, we explore the social reaction to juvenile criminality, and compare juridical concepts with meanings given by the youths to the courts and the police. In chapter IV we explore their meanings about their experience in detention centres. We believe by the beginning that these kind of institutions are similar to “Total Institutions”, but they are also symbolic devices.

Objectives: To evaluate the relationship between the tendency to relapse of drug addicts in detention centers and their motivation to change addictive behaviors. Methods: Semi-structured interviews using two instruments, the "Relapse Tendency Assessment Record" and the "Stage of Motivation Form", were conducted by senior psychiatrists to assess 470 drug addicts. Results: 1. Most of the drug addicts were found to be in the pre-contemplation stage (78.82%). 2. The tendency to relapse and their motivation to change addictive behaviors were not significantly correlated. 3. Among the 11 assessment items, the "drug-related criminal justice records" and "withdrawal symptoms" accounted for 69% of the variance in tendency to relapse, but only "short-term recidivism" (p <0.05) and "injection drug use" (p <0.01) were significantly correlated to motivation to change. 4. Drug addicts in different motivational stage, only "cognitive" subscale in the self-rating questionnaire, reaching statistical difference. Conclusions: The tendency to relapse did not clearly reflect the drug addicts’ motivation to change. The scores for the "drug-related criminal justice records" and "withdrawal symptoms" items were excessively weighted, had no significant correlation with motivation to change, and affected the result of assessment. In the future, we suggest more weighting of the scores for "short-term recidivism" and "injection drug use" in the "Relapse Tendency Assessment Record" to increase the accuracy of the overall assessment.

The purpose of this research is to explore “ the job stress of detention center guard officers”. After the research questions and directions were clarified and focused, 7 guard officers who are working in a detention center in South-Central Taiwan were chosen. The in-depth interview of qualitative research was used to collect data, and the data will demonstrate deeply the interviewees’ thoughts and their meaningful inner world. The results were summarized as follows: 1. The job stress of detention center guard officers are various, most come from “superiors”, because superiors’ decisions will influence guard officers directly. 2. The lack of human resource is a big problem. In the judicial correction area, three or four people’s duty on one person is a common situation. 3. Because the policies are always changing, guard officers get confused easily. 4. The shortage of equipment makes judicial correction job less effective。 5. About the trouble causing by offending inmates, guard officers are unwilling and cannot do anything.

In correctional system, Juvenile Detention Center have always been the main targets for cost cutting reviews. Over the years, the number of juvenile detention centers have become fewer as they are either shut downed or merged with each other. The criteria for cost cutting focuses on whether there are enough inmates to justify its operation and also if the facility’s resources would be best served for other purposes. No research or evaluation of each detention houses’ effectiveness and social benefits was conducted to determine whether it should stay open or not. To establish the operational value of juvenile detention center, Qualitative Research Method is used for this research during interviews with detention house staffs and experts who work in the judiciary and correctional related fields. The interviews will provide useful insights from the people who actually work there and from people who are knowledgeable experts in the field. For this research, the data was collected from interviews of thirteen participants. After analyzing the data, the conclusion is as follows: the functions of juvenile detention center include isolating juvenile inmates from the bad influences of the outside world as to prevent them from committing future crimes and to provide to them a family atmosphere where they harbor the feeling of belonging and security. The treatment of juvenile detention center has fewer problems from institutionalization and its aim is to regulate orderly behavior of juveniles and to provide further education. Juvenile detention center are very different from adult detention centers in aspects of management, punishment, and depositions so they do bring the value of fulfilling “classified detention”. Under the consideration of “the best interest of the child”, it is not suitable to combine detention centers with prisons. A complete correctional plan should be completed beforehand to prevent the self-fulfilling prophecy from imbedding into the consciousness of juveniles and Alternative Education should be applied to increase the operational value of detention house. In administrative aspect, Juvenile detention center are facing financial difficulty which leads to a reduction of the police force and with the understaffed workforce. It may lead to a future crisis concerning custodial work. In education and guidance aspect, Juvenile detention center could not control juvenile inmates’ release schedule so it is difficult to provide complete education and guidance programs. In the future, juvenile detention center should work closely with juvenile courts to correct the behaviors of juveniles, to combine the resource from society and nearby schools, to educate juveniles, and to take positive action in assisting families to reform juveniles.

ABSTRACT With the development of internationalization of human rights in Taiwan, after the release of Act to Implement the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights and International Covenant on Economic Social and Cultural Rights (hereby referred to as the “Two Covenants”) ,the Judicial Yuan also announced the No. 708 Interpretation.The resettlement of aliens have become one of the hot issues,this is paved the way to the subject of my thesis. Aliens that can be “detained” are limited in this study to illegal aliens that have entered Taiwan. The term “detention" is defined as " an administrative act of keeping illegal aliens in temporary premises during pre-removal process until their repatriation”. The thesis is divided into the following six sections: chapter I: Introduction , chapter II: fundamental rights of the people , chapter III：detention system in Taiwan and chapter IV: American and Japanese aliens detention system , chapter V: Detaining and relief system in Taiwan and chapter VI : the conclusion. The Protection of the fundamental rights should comply with "the hierarchy of legal reservation" and "the importance theory". The conflicts among legal interests should be adjusted in accordance with human rights principles. And the fundamental rights of the detained people should be addressed by the past legal principles. This thesis will cover three directions: fundamental human rights, equal rights and people's personal freedom. The constitutionality of the detention is divided into three discussion topics:"legal principle", and"proportionality principle " and "due process of law" to study . The detention systems in the United States, Japan do not adopt the " Principle of Reservation by the Judges " system. The periods for detention also different. Simple violation on "administrative law" and not involving criminal case of aliens, more to high margin also or to penalty fines of administrative penalty mainly, fresh to " detention " for means. Administrative relief regarding detention of illegal aliens, we are, "different discussion" and "petition" and "administrative proceedings", "Habeas Corpus " and other observations. From observing the practical cases, the current relief program for the protection of the detained rights of aliens is quite slow and needs improvement.

O presente estudo pretende analisar as narrativas e vivências psicossociais dos indivíduos que se encontram na Unidade Habitacional de Santo António (UHSA) e o significado atribuído às mesmas, assim como examinar o padrão quotidiano vivenciado no centro de detenção, e por último refletir sobre os problemas existentes a nível do processo político e burocrático que tem como consequência a detenção. De modo a conseguir adquirir um conhecimento abrangente, não apenas focado no individuo, mas tendo em conta também o ambiente que o rodeia, foi adotado o modelo ecológico desenvolvido por Kelly (1969), composto por quatro princípios, sendo eles: a interdependência, o ciclo de recursos, a sucessão e a adaptação. Além disto acrescentou-se a dimensão da justiça, assim como sugerido pelo modelo do Prilleltensky (2014). É importante referir que este modelo teórico de análise foi desenvolvido pela Dra. Esposito, em conjunto com o Professor Ornelas e a Professora Arcidiacono de modo a elaborar um quadro ecológico de análise dos centros de detenção para migrantes (Esposito, Ornelas & Arcidiacono, 2015). Os resultados obtidos demonstram que os entrevistados comparam a UHSA a um sistema prisional. Privados da sua liberdade, eles deixam de ser indivíduos independentes para passarem a ser controlados e dependentes de outros. A detenção mostra afetar diversas vertentes da vida dos entrevistados,
This study aims to analyze the narratives and psychosocial experiences of individuals who are in the Unidade Habitacional de Santo António (UHSA) and the meaning attributed to them, as well as to examine the daily pattern experienced in the detention center, and finally reflect on the problems existing at the level of the political and bureaucratic process that results in detention. In order to acquire a comprehensive knowledge, not only focused on the individual, but also taking into account the environment around the individual, the ecological model developed by Kelly (1969) was adopted, composed of four principles, namely: interdependence, cycle of resources, succession and adaptation, in addition to this the dimension of justice, taking into account the Prilleltensky model (2014), It is worth mentioning that this theoretical model was developed by Dr. Esposito, along with Professor Ornelas and Professor Arcidiacono in order to elaborate a framework to analyse detention centers for migrants (Esposito, Ornelas & Arcidiacono, 2015). The results obtained show that the interviewees compare the UHSA to a prison system, deprived of their liberty, from being independent individuals to being controlled and dependent on others. The detention shows that it affects several aspects of the life of the interviewees, both at the family level, in the support network, and in the labor status.

Abstract:

- The Issue of Pre-trail Detention in Criminal Procedure This diploma thesis deals with the problems of pre-trail detention. The issue of pre-trail detention is a current and widely discussed topic due to two main reasons. First is the very nature of pre-trail detention as a means of procedural criminal law, with which the law most intensely interferes with the personal freedom of the individual. The second reason is its development and anchoring in the Czech legal system. Pre-trial detention has very specific characteristics because it interferes with personal freedom of an individual whose guilt has not been determined by the court. Consequently, there is a conflict between the human right to personal freedom and the need for the state to ensure the proper conduct of criminal proceedings and investigation. The thesis is divided into seven chapters. The first chapter deals with the concept of criminal detention itself and its role in criminal proceedings. The next chapter is dedicated to the development of the law of detention from 1873 to the present. The historical overview of the legal regulation of pre-trail detention is important for the understanding and interpretation of its perception today, and shows a gradual increase in the level of protection of human rights. The third chapter briefly...

Abstract:

Dissertação de mestrado integrado em Psicologia
O número de crianças e jovens diagnosticados com psicopatologias tem vindo a aumentar consideravelmente. No entanto, alguns adolescentes parecem ser especialmente vulneráveis ao desenvolvimento de problemas de saúde mental, como é o caso daqueles que se encontram a cumprir medidas privativas da liberdade dos sistemas de justiça. Em Portugal, são escassos os estudos referentes aos procedimentos de avaliação e intervenção nos problemas de saúde mental dos jovens nos Centros Educativos. Porém, existem indícios de práticas deficitárias neste domínio. Paralelamente, o uso de psicofármacos tem vindo a aumentar acentuadamente. Isto torna-se preocupante quando se tem em consideração os efeitos secundários destes medicamentos e o desconhecimento relativo às suas consequências a médio e longo prazo. Assim, o presente estudo teve como objetivo caraterizar os problemas de saúde mental dos jovens que se encontram nos Centros Educativos portugueses e as respetivas intervenções psicológicas e psicofarmacológicas adotadas. Para tal, foram entrevistados 12 especialistas e dez psicólogos destas instituições. Foi ainda aplicado um questionário aos diretores de cinco Centros Educativos, através do qual se obteve dados relativos a 95 jovens. Os resultados apontaram para uma elevada incidência de problemas comportamentais/interpessoais e emocionais nestes adolescentes. Contudo, os procedimentos de avaliação do estado de saúde mental revelam-se insuficientes, bem como as respetivas intervenções psicológicas implementadas. Cerca de metade dos jovens de quatro destas instituições encontrava-se a tomar psicofármacos. Colmatar as limitações identificadas da intervenção psicológica contribuirá não só para um maior bem-estar e ajustamento social nestes adolescentes, como para a diminuição de futuros custos humanos e financeiros e a redução da necessidade do uso de psicofármacos.
The number of children and youths diagnosed with mental disorders has increased considerably. However, some adolescents seem to be more vulnerable to the development of mental health problems, like those who are in juvenile detention facilities. In Portugal, there are few studies about the assessment and intervention procedures in mental health problems of these youths, implemented in these institutions. However, there are indications of deficient practices in this domain. At the same time, research has shown a significant increase in the use of psychiatric drugs, which has become a concern considering their side effects, and the lack of knowledge about their medium and long-term consequences. As such, this study aimed to characterize the mental health problems, and respective interventional strategies, among Portuguese adolescents in juvenile detention facilities. For that, 12 specialists and ten psychologists of these institutions were interviewed. A questionnaire was also answered by directors of five of these organizations, through which data on 95 youths was accessed. The data shows a high rate of behavioral/interpersonal and emotional problems in these adolescents. However, mental health evaluation procedures and psychological interventions are not sufficient. About half of the youths of four of these institutions were taking psychiatric drugs. Reducing the identified limitations of psychological intervention will not only contribute to greater well-being and social adjustment in these youths but will also decrease future human and financial costs and reduce the need to use psychotropic medication.
