Academic literature on the topic 'Imprisonment and house arrest'

The article is devoted to the practice of parole. The main goal of the study is to determine if is it properly to include a period of house arrest in six months term of imprisonment, necessary for the creation of the right to parole. The article proves that in practice they judge from the following conclusion: as the period of house arrest is included in the period of detention, and the detention period is included in the term of imprisonment, so when a real served term for parole is determined it is necessary to include in it the period of house arrest. The author explains that such conclusion is flawed since it is based on a dogmatic rather than systemic interpretation of the Criminal Code and the Criminal Procedure Code of the Russian Federation without understanding the role which plays set by the legislator six months term in case of parole in the system of criminal law measures.

Abstract Preventive measures are divided by the legislator in 2 categories: imprisonment (detention, house arrest, preventive arrest) and restrictive of rights (judicial review and judicial control on surety). An absolute novelty is the introduction of house arrest. There is some controversy concerning the conditions which must be fulfilled in order to be disposed by the judge of rights and freedoms, the judge of preliminary Chamber or Panel of judges either the house arrest or the measure of preventive arrest. Whereas the establishment of preventive measures involves undermining the individual freedom, the national and the European laws have created a series of legal guarantees to prevent arbitrariness or abuse in making or extend/maintain them. There are also a number of provisions of a general nature, applicable to all preventive measures, namely, termination, revocation or replacement thereof. For all measures involving deprivation of liberty, general conditions must be fulfilled, stipulated by article 202, of the Code of Criminal Procedure, but for house arrest and detention in addition to the General conditions, special conditions should be fulfilled foreseen by article 223 of the Code of Criminal Procedure, conditions which must be cumulatively met. Not fulfilling the cumulative criteria laid down in national and European norms cannot be replaced by other considerations of the judge.

This article addresses the unintended consequences of using house arrest for female offenders as an alternative to prison for drug-related crimes. We propose that in patriarchal societies, locking women at home could imply moving them to another control device that may be as harmful as prison. Thereby, house arrest creates an unintended effect in which domestication in traditional gender roles ends up being the primary target of female offender punishment.

According to our national legislation, house arrest is considered a new legal institution compared to other criminal procedural precautionary measures. Taking this into account, in this article, the author provides a general description of criminal procedural precautionary measures, the concept of house arrest as a preventive measure; its legal elements and the scientific-theoretical aspects of its content are detailed through a comparative analysis of the opinions of foreign experts and local researchers. Also, the article describes the problems that have arisen in the practice of applying the law on the basis of foreign and national legislation and legal norms that determine the procedure for the appointment of house arrest, as well as conclusions and suggestions for their elimination. Although there are legal grounds for choosing a preventive measure in the form of detention during the preliminary investigation or trial against a person who has committed a crime or is suspected of committing it, from the point of view of humanity, taking into account his age, state of health, family situation and other circumstances, house arrest is used as a preventive measure only if it is deemed inappropriate to incarcerate him. However, if a person abuses the relief given to him without following the established order, a preventive measure in the form of imprisonment will be applied to him. Therefore, first of all, when choosing house arrest instead of detention as a preventive measure, the law enforcer should clearly distinguish the grounds for using detention as a preventive measure and the circumstances that are taken into account when choosing it.

The subject of the article is the procedure of application of prohibition of certain actions and the rules of counting the term of this preventive measure against the term of house arrest, detention and imprisonment. The relevance of the chosen topic is due to the introduction of uncoordinated changes in criminal procedural and criminal legislation, which led to legal uncertainty and lack of a unified approach in law enforcement. The authors solved the following problems: to disclose the content of prohibition of certain actions; to determine the moments of the beginning and end of prohibitions; to establish the proportions of offsetting periods of prohibition of certain actions with other measures of restraint; to formulate rules of offsetting periods of prohibition of certain actions and deprivation of liberty. The methodology of the study consisted of general scientific and special scientific methods: dialectical, formal-logical, comparative-legal, systemic, analysis and synthesis. On the basis of these methods the article provides an analysis of the procedure for calculating the period of prohibition of certain actions. It is pointed out that the gap of the present regulation is the lack of cut-off terms of injunctions' validity, stipulated in the items 2-6 of part 6 of article 105. 6 of Art. 105.1 of the CPC of the RF, the procedure for their extension and control. The Article stresses that the prohibition of leaving the dwelling is linked to the isolation of the person from society, and therefore the time of such prohibition should be taken into account when replacing this preventive measure with house arrest or remand in custody. In the reverse situation, there should also be an offsetting of time limits. Based on the scope of the imposed restrictions, the authors justify the following proportion in the RF CCrP: 1 day of detention equals 2 days of house arrest and 3 days of prohibition to leave the dwelling. Particular attention is paid to the issue of crediting the time of prohibition to leave the dwelling premises into the term of punishment. Based on an analysis of case law, the authors identify three approaches. The first is that the period of prohibition of certain actions under para. 1 P. 6 of Article 105.1 of the RF CCrP, should not be counted as part of the imprisonment sentence, as this is not provided for in Article 72 of the RF CC. According to the second approach, the period of prohibition to leave the dwelling premises should be counted as part of the term of imprisonment, using by analogy the provisions on counting the term of house arrest as part of the term of imprisonment. A third approach is that the time of prohibition to leave the premises should be counted indirectly: through correlation with another preventive measure - detention, in order to take into account the type of correctional facility assigned to the person. The authors adhere to the second position, but propose a different proportion of offsetting, different from house arrest, which should be enshrined in the Russian Criminal Code. The conclusion draws conclusions on the shortcomings of the regulation of the new measure of restraint, emphasises the criminal-law nature of the institution of setoff and proposes amendments to the RF CCrP and the RF Criminal Code. The authors declare no conflicts of interests.

The subject of the study is to consider the issues regarding the set-off of the time spent in custody or house arrest at the time of punishment, both during the sentencing and during its execution. The purpose of the study is to disclose the problematic issues of calculating the period of detention subject to offsetting the term of imprisonment, the beginning of the term of serving a sentence of imprisonment. The procedure for setting off the time spent by a person under house arrest until a court verdict comes into force is considered if a court imposes a sentence that is not related to isolation from society. The main results of the study reflect problems in sentencing if the time of detention absorbs the sentence assigned to the defendant by the court, as well as the issues of applying preferential rules for setting off the time of detention in custody when sentencing for the totality of crimes and the totality of sentences, criminal of the law in time when the time in the sentence is set off, for crimes committed before July 14, 2018. As a fundamental direction, the scientific and practical validity of the criminal law policy and legislative processes, the optimization of the implementation of the criminal law are noted.

This article discusses two intertwined forms of care that engage with incarcerated women in Argentina. First, it examines the consequences of a policy change that allows incarcerated women who are pregnant and/or caregivers of small children to serve their time at home. Institutional confinement extends beyond the prison and has taken various forms, such as the shelter, the asylum, relocation centers, and prison camps. Inspired by recent prison studies that disrupt the prison as a fixed and hardened site, this article contends that house arrest is far from a benefit. Rather, home confinement constitutes a site of neglect where women must fend for themselves to perform reproductive labor as a way to complete their sentence. This practice reveals new forms of social control and state surveillance in which judges, social workers, and penitentiaries determine which women are appropriate for house arrest while policing the terms of their confinement. Second, this article presents the author’s fieldwork involving a women’s collective that offers art-related workshops to encourage incarcerated women to develop a different understanding of their agency and potential. Institutions such as neighborhood and women’s collectives offer new forms of sociality that redefine imprisonment. As women under house arrest are expected to provide for themselves and their children, it is important to understand how they meet such challenges, considering how gender norms and institutional violence impact women’s lives today.

Art. 3 of the Law on amendments to the Law on Execution of Criminal Sanctions, a new Art. 41a. entitled “Procedure for petition to execute imprisonment in the premises of the convicted person”. This amendment to the Law on Execution of Criminal Sanctions (which is both substantive and procedural in nature) gives the possibility and hope to a large of sentenced persons to imprisonment for up to one year, by their request, by the time they enter the sentence, re-examines the conviction and possibly changes the manner in which the prison sentence is served in one of the penitentiary institutions by executing it in the premises where the convicted person resides (“house arrest”). In this paper, the author will point out the legitimacy and compliance of this novelty with the basic principles of criminal law, the relationship with the certain provisions of the Criminal Code and the Code of Criminal Procedure, the intention of the legislator in its introduction, as well as its nature.

The rule that convicted persons serve their sentences exclusively in prisons has not been valid in the Republic of Serbia for a long time. Prison sentences may also be executed in the premises where the convicted person resides. Such a solution is introduced by the 2009 Law on Amendments and Supplements to the Criminal Code. The Criminal Code does not prescribe the punishment of a prison sentence served in the premises where the convicted person resides as a special punishment. Instead, the offender is sentenced to imprisonment, which is then executed in the premises where he lives. In criminal proceedings, the court is obliged to individualize the criminal sanction in a way that takes into account objective and subjective circumstances - the circumstances relating to the committed crime and its perpetrator. There are such perpetrators who it is necessary to sentence to prison, but who should not be sent to a penal institution. The prison sentence may also be served in premises where they reside (with or without electronic surveillance). Although, in a legally-binding sentence, the accused is sentenced to imprisonment in a penal institution, this does not necessarily mean that he will be placed into a penal institution to serve his sentence. The amendments and supplements of the Criminal Code leave an "opportunity" for the convict to serve his sentence in the premises where he resides, if the prescribed conditions are met. This is only a possibility which may be decided on by the judge in charge of executing criminal sanctions. If it is decided that the convicted person shall serve his sentence in the premises where he resides, the next step is the execution of the sentence. Not all convicted persons who are serving their sentence in this way are in the same legal position, as there is individualization in the process of executing a sentence as well. This difference is apparent, above all, in the amount of time that a convict is allowed to spend outside of the premises in which he resides. The focus of the authors' attention is precisely the punishment of imprisonment served in the premises where the convict resides (the so-called house arrest). The authors deal with material aspects and aspects of execution of the sentence. This paper focuses, among other matters, on the conditions for sentencing, models of execution of the sentence and the legal position of the convicted person while serving his sentence.

The subject of a research and doctoral thesis “New alternatives to imprisonment in criminal legislation of the Republic of Serbia” is the analysis of the concept, content, condition of imposition, execution and effects of the new alternative criminal sanctions and measures. Introduction of the new alternatives to imprisonment in criminal justice system ranks the Republic of Serbia legislation among contemporary criminal systems, which are characterized by the establishment of more humane ways of responding to milder forms of criminal behavior and the development of an alternative concept of treatment and punishment for perpetrators of minor offences.The objectives of the research are a critical and comparative analysis of normative content for the new alternatives to imprisonment in criminal legislation, reassessment of the compliance with minimal standards provided in international documents, determination of the effectiveness of the imposition and implementation of the new alternatives to imprisonment, reassessment of the justification and possible scope of resisting milder forms of criminality, as well as determination of the impact of their implementation in the functioning of the entire criminal justice system of the Republic of Serbia.The doctoral dissertation consists of seven chapters which are mostly addressed to the important issues relating to the regulation and implementation of the new alternatives of imprisonment. The first part is devoted to the determination of the concept and the reasons for the emergence of new alternative criminal sanctions and measures, as a response to the "crisis of the imprisonment." The second part deals with the traditional alternatives to prison sentence and determines their scope of application in our criminal justice system. The third part is dedicated to the appearance and development of the new alternatives to imprisonment in comparative law, and the fourth is dealing with most important international instruments in this domain, provided by United Nations and Council of Europe. The fifth, and the central, part of the research presents the new alternative criminal sanctions in our criminal law: community service, house arrest, the penalty of seizure of driver's license and a system of day-fines, their theoretical and critical normative analysis, as well as the effects of their application andНове алтернативе казни затвора у кривичном законодавству Републике СрбијеXIIIthe impact on the functioning in our criminal justice system. The sixth part deals with the specific new alternative measures in the comparative law, which potentially can achieve alteration of imprisonment or the execution of a prison sentence in the penal institution, while the seventh part deals with the specific alternative measures in our criminal justice system, and the effects and the impact on their implementation.In accordance with the objectives of the research, after comprehensive analysis of the subject, and on the basis of longitudinal research of imposed and implemented new alternatives in the past decade, we confirmed and scientifically explained two basic and six operating hypothesis.In the concluding remarks of the doctoral dissertation we sublimate the research results and present the proposals de lege ferenda, in order to influence the creation of a different normative and organizational framework for the implementation of the new alternatives to imprisonment, but also to make an impact on the effective functioning of the criminal justice system in the Republic of Serbia.Key words: new alternatives to imprisonment, alternative criminal sanctions, community service, house arrest, alternative measures, criminal legislation of Republic of Serbia

Resumo: Este trabalho tem como objetivo geral analisar se o Supremo Tribunal Federal (STF) e o Superior Tribunal de Justiça (STJ) concederam ou não prisão domiciliar como substitutiva da preventiva para gestantes entre 08/03/2016, entrada em vigor do Marco Legal da Primeira Infância (Lei nº 13.257/16), e 20/02/2018, data de concessão do Habeas Corpus coletivo nº 143.641, pelo STF. Com este intuito, primeiramente, no Capítulo II, serão expostas as vulnerabilidades socioeconômicas extramuros enfrentadas pelas mulheres (grávidas) em privação de liberdade no Brasil, as quais são agravadas pelas pressões emocionais, físicas e materiais decorrentes das dificuldades por elas vivenciadas no ambiente prisional. Já no Capítulo III, além da exposição dos dados principais encontrados nos julgados do STF e do STJ, no período acima mencionado, referentes à concessão ou não desta prisão domiciliar, também serão expostas informações secundárias referentes à região em que se originou o recurso cuja decisão irá se analisar; à/ao advogada/advogado ou Defensoria Pública representando a pleiteante; ao mês de gestação em que se encontrava a gestante; à quantidade de filhas/filhos que ela possuía; às idades destas/destes filhas/filhos; aos tipos penais em que foi enquadrada; ao fato de ter sido condenada (em primeira instância) ou não e, se sim, a qual pena e em qual regime inicial. Para isso, o método utilizado será predominantemente o dedutivo e as principais técnicas de pesquisa serão a revisão bibliogr... (Resumo completo, clicar acesso eletrônico abaixo)
Abstract: This study aims to analyze if Brazilian Supreme Court (STF) and Brazilian Superior Court (STJ) have granted or not house arrest as a substitute for pre-trial detention to pregnant women between 08/03/2016 (Law no. 13.257/16) and 02/20/2018, date on which the STF granted the collective habeas corpus nº 143.641. For this purpose, firstly, in Chapter II, the socioeconomic vulnerabilities faced by women (pregnant women) in deprivation of liberty in Brazil will be exposed, which are aggravated by the emotional, physical and material stress derived from difficulties they experience in the prison environment. In Chapter III, the main data will be shown, regarding the granting or not of house arrest, found in judgements by the STF and STJ in the aforementioned period. Furthermore, secondary data will be analyzed, concerning the region from which the appeal originated; to the lawyer or Public Defender representing the plaintiff; to the gestation month; to the number of daughters/sons she possessed; the ages of these daughters/sons; to the felonies in which they were framed; to the conviction sentence (in the first instance) or not, and if so, to what penalty and under what regime. For this, the method used will be predominantly the deductive and the main research techniques will be the bibliographical review and the documental analysis, mainly quantitative, of judgements.

Since 1984 in the U.S., electronic monitoring has been gradually incorporated into corrections as a means of verifying offenders' curfew compliance in programs of house arrest or home confinement. Programs of electronically monitored house arrest combine practices of community supervision found in probation, with practices of surveillance and policing found in prisons. Their combination produces a hybrid carceral form. The species of 'intermediate punishment' that is created expands the possibilities of criminal sentencing and classification. These programs have been heralded as humane and cost efficient in managing mainly 'low risk' offenders, and as a potentially effective method of dealing with prison crowding. The recent inauguration of electronic monitoring in a program of house arrest in the province of British Columbia is the first deployment of this new type of penal form in Canada. The present research investigation focuses on this program run by the B.C. Corrections Branch. Prior to a consideration of this program as the site for the present research, a necessary task in the first part of this dissertation is to review the recent literature describing programs of electronically monitored house arrest. This review describes recent electronic monitoring programs in U.S. criminal justice and correctional spheres where virtually all developments have occurred to date. After this literature review, the British Columbia research site is described and a summary of the findings of an exploratory research investigation describing the effects of this sanction on offenders is given. Despite methodological limitations of the research sample some important insights are provided about how this sanction works to control, punish, and discipline offenders. The main research question considered in this empirical investigation - how does this sanction affect offenders and their consociates? - is addressed through subjective reports provided by open-ended interviewing of a cohort of 60 offenders placed on electronically monitored house arrest in the B.C. EMS Pilot Project program. The second part of the dissertation establishes a social analytic basis, drawing on the work of Michel Foucault, for critically evaluating the local use of this new correctional option. Part II of the dissertation evaluates the disciplinary and organizational or systemic effects of the deployment of this sanction within the correctional enterprise. A framework for assessing the possibility of achieving the four penal aims of punishment, incapacitation, deterrence, and rehabilitation is employed in a re-assessment of the sanction's normalizing effects and disciplinary potential. The picture provided of the achievement of these penal objectives is mixed and indicates that more research is required. Finally, and of more overarching significance, various data sources relating to the local development and implementation of this program in B.C. are examined in order to evaluate the applicability of the hypothesis that penal reforms expand the apparatus of deviancy control, a pattern found among many recent studies of 'community-based alternatives to incarceration'. The discursive rationality accompanying the introduction of such programs suggests that costs for social control will be decreased and implies that correctional staffing can be reduced through greater efficiency. Contrary to these claims, evidence from the EMS program points to systemic expansion rather than contraction, a trend sufficiently visible to warrant further study and confirmation. The thesis concludes with a discussion of the larger significances entailed in the adoption of the new information technology, of which electronic monitoring is one pertinent example.

La problématique de la déportation ou des déportés d’Afrique de l’Ouest, durant l’ère coloniale, n’est pas assez prise en charge par l’historiographie africaine d’expression française et même anglaise qui s'est davantage appesantie plus sur les guerres, les résistances et leurs différentes formes. Ce faisant, une réalité d’un pan de l’histoire coloniale reste plus ou moins méconnue. C'est pourquoi nous voudrions étudier le thème suivant, qui a été et demeure d’une actualité brûlante: « Les déportés de la Sénégambie et du Soudan : entre résistances et répressions dans un espace colonial de 1840 à 1946 ». Les acteurs de cette histoire des déportés sont des figures emblématiques et/ou de simples anonymes, qui ont voulu défendre la terre de leurs ancêtres, diriger les destinées de leurs peuples, lutter pour le maintien des valeurs et des traditions africaines. L’histoire de « ces soldats du refus » – à savoir les chefs religieux, les combattants au service de l’islam et des valeurs ou croyances ancestrales et les chefs politiques auxquels s’ajoutent les aliénés mentaux, les bandits sociaux et délinquants, les hommes de presse, les partisans et/ou disciples des chefs et même les tirailleurs sénégalais – mérite d’être examinée. Cette thèse s’inscrit dans les questionnements d’une histoire coloniale attentive aux enjeux de la répression et du maintien de l’ordre. Face au refus manifeste des meneurs de troupes ou créateurs d’émotions de se résigner au diktat colonial, la réponse donnée par les autorités coloniales était, entre autres, de les déporter/emprisonner, les assigner en résidence surveillée, leur interdire de séjour, pour leur couper toute forme de communication, tout contact avec leur entourage et les mettre ainsi hors d’état de nuire. Dans de nombreux cas, il s'agissait d'une forme d'emprisonnement, ce qui nous conduit à l'étude du milieu carcéral qui dévoile les formes d’évitement, les conditions de vie des déportés, l’architecture liée aux questions sécuritaires, etc. L’application de cette technique de répression, entrant dans la logique des politiques de sécurité, était une manière de freiner l’élan des chefs et d’anéantir toutes les résistances coloniales. L'étude que nous souhaitons conduire vise surtout à cerner la place déterminante de la déportation dans le dispositif de répression coloniale, dans le maintien de l’ordre sécuritaire, de mainmise politique, de contrôle des hommes et des espaces, pour l’exploitation des colonies. La trame chronologique que ce travail tente d’éclairer va de 1840 à 1946, une période charnière de l’histoire coloniale en Afrique de l’Ouest, particulièrement en Sénégambie et au Soudan, en ce sens qu’elle est marquée par des transformations rapides à tous les niveaux (politique, économique, social et culturel). La déportation était-elle si fondamentale, si nécessaire pour la réalisation du projet colonial, le maintien de l’ordre sécuritaire ? Dans quelle mesure les déportés constituaient-ils un réel obstacle, une entrave à l’implantation et à l’imposition du pouvoir colonial ? Quel a été le rôle des acteurs de l’ordre dans le processus de déportation ? Cette thèse explore des thématiques majeures telles que les contextes de déportation, les abus de pouvoir des administrateurs coloniaux, l’Indigénat et la justice indigène, les motivations de la déportation, les multiples réponses des indigènes, leur arrestation et déportation, la place des agents/acteurs (armée, gendarmerie et police coloniales) dans le maintien, le rétablissement et/ou la protection de la stabilité et les conséquences politico-économiques d’une telle « technique de pouvoir»
The problem of deportation or deportees from West Africa during the colonial era is not sufficiently addressed by French- and even English-speaking African historiography, which has focused more on wars, resistances and their different forms. In doing so, a reality of a part of colonial history remains more or less unknown. That is why we would like to study the following theme, which has been and remains of burning topicality: "The deportees of Senegambia and Sudan: between resistance and repression in a colonial space from 1840 to 1946". The actors in this story of the deportees are emblematic figures and/or simple anonymous, who wanted to defend the land of their ancestors, direct the destinies of their peoples, fight for the maintenance of African values and traditions. The history of "these soldiers of refusal" – namely religious leaders, fighters in the service of Islam and ancestral values or beliefs and political leaders to which are added the mentally insane, social bandits and delinquents, men of the press, supporters and/or followers of leaders and even Senegalese riflemen – deserves to be examined. This thesis is part of the questions of a colonial history attentive to the issues of repression and the maintenance of order. Faced with the manifest refusal of the leaders of troops or creators of emotions to resign themselves to the colonial diktat, the response given by the colonial authorities was, among other things, to deport/imprison them, to house arrest, to prohibit them from staying, to cut them off all forms of communication, any contact with their entourage and thus put them out of harm's way. In many cases, it was a form of imprisonment, which leads us to the study of the prison environment that reveals the forms of avoidance, the living conditions of the deportees, the architecture related to security issues, etc. The application of this technique of repression, part of the logic of security policies, was a way of slowing down the momentum of the leaders and annihilating all colonial resistance. The study we wish to conduct aims above all to identify the decisive place of deportation in the system of colonial repression, in the maintenance of security order, political control, control of people and spaces, for the exploitation of colonies. The chronological framework that this work attempts to illuminate goes from 1840 to 1946, a pivotal period in colonial history in West Africa, particularly in Senegambia and Sudan, in that it is marked by rapid transformations at all levels (political, economic, social and cultural). Was deportation so fundamental, so necessary for the realization of the colonial project, the maintenance of security order? To what extent did the deportees constitute a real obstacle, an obstacle to the establishment and imposition of colonial power? What was the role of law enforcement actors in the deportation process? This thesis explores major themes such as the contexts of deportation, the abuse of power by colonial administrators, indigénat and indigenous justice, the motivations of deportation, the multiple responses of indigenous people, their arrest and deportation, the place of agents/actors (army, gendarmerie and colonial police) in maintaining, restoring and/or protecting stability and the politico-economic consequences of such a "technique of power"

This study evaluates the factors involved in granting or denying home detention to women in pretrial detention at the Madre Pelletier Female State Prison (MPFSP), in Southern Brazil. The sampled responds to the requirements established in article 318 of the Brazilian Code of Criminal Procedure (BCCP), which recommends replacing pretrial detention with house arrest to the women who are pregnant or mothers of children under 12 years old. This research was based on two premises: (i) the enactment of Law 13.257/ 2016 known as the Legal Framework for Early Childhood - which promoted the change in the BCCP in order to meet the infants best interests - and (ii) the preparation of technical reports by MPFSP social and psychologist Assistants, later sent to the criminal process district, requesting an analysis to the house arrest granting. It was a mixed design study. Qualitative data were examined by the Discursive Textual Analysis theory, which is composed of three essential elements: unitarization, categorization and communication. Quantitative analysis encompass statistical calculations performed by Statical Package for the Social Scienses, version 21.0 for Windows. Furthermore, the sociodemographic profile of a total of 84 women was raised in the reports on the Justice Court website. From the analysis of the data, it was verified that 32% of the women had their request rejected. By refusing the house arrest the magistracy alleges the maintenance of public order to justify the non-granting for women in detention. However, the sample preponderance shows that the criminal imputation does not accompany violence acts. Homicide crimes accounted for only 7.1%, which shows that the majority of surveyed women in MPFSP could receive the house arrest grant. The interpretation of the discourses content reveals moralistic considerations referring to an idealized motherhood in the mold of the patriarchal culture, considering that these women are unfit for mothering precisely because they are accused of committing a crime. On the other hand, in the cases when house arrest was granting, it was evidenced by the judiciary the understanding of the indispensability of the maternal figure for the care of the children, thus protecting the best interest of the infant. Such findings may contribute to the elaboration of affirmative actions that subsidize the strengthening of house arrest concessions. Under the bastion of the Public Security Policy known as "Zero Tolerance", preventive detention could be understand as a social control tool of women who disregard the social role attributed to the feminine by the androcentric and patriarchal culture here represented by southern criminal justice system.
O presente estudo tem como objetivo conhecer, a partir da utiliza??o da An?lise Textual Discursiva, o tom do discurso da magistratura ga?cha, para conceder ou indeferir a pris?o domiciliar ?s mulheres em situa??o de pris?o preventiva no Pres?dio Estadual Feminino Madre Pelletier, que respondem ao requisito de serem m?es de crian?as menores de 12 anos ou estejam gestantes, conforme preconiza o artigo 318 do C?digo de Processo Penal. A justificativa para elabora??o de tal investiga??o partiu da promulga??o da Lei 13.257/2016, conhecida como Marco Legal da Primeira Inf?ncia ? que promoveu a altera??o no CPP no fito de atender o melhor interesse dos infantes ?, e da elabora??o de relat?rios t?cnicos por Assistentes Sociais e Psic?logas do PEFMP, posteriormente encaminhados para a comarca de origem do processo criminal, solicitando an?lise para a concess?o da pris?o domiciliar. Foi tamb?m levantado o perfil sociodemogr?fico das r?s, totalizando 84 amostras que continham manifesta??o nos despachos no s?tio eletr?nico do TJRS. Tratou-se de estudo com delineamento misto. A an?lise quantitativa foi realizada por meio de c?lculos estat?sticos do Statistical Package for the Social Scienses ? SPSS, vers?o 21.0 para Windows. J? os dados qualitativos foram analisados pela teoria da An?lise Textual Discursiva, e comp?em um ciclo de an?lise composto por tr?s elementos essenciais: a unitariza??o, categoriza??o e comunica??o, que resultaram no corpus das an?lises. A interpreta??o do conte?do dos discursos destacou que, ao indeferir a pris?o domiciliar, a magistratura ga?cha utiliza-se da manuten??o da ordem p?blica para justificar a n?o concess?o da medida cautelar diversa da pris?o para mulheres em situa??o de pris?o preventiva, apresentado algumas considera??es de cunho moralista referentes a uma maternidade idealizada nos moldes da cultura patriarcal, ao considerarem essas mulheres inaptas ? maternagem justamente por serem acusadas de cometimento de delito, em que pese que a preponder?ncia da amostra tenha demonstrado que a imputa??o penal n?o acompanha atos de viol?ncia. Na outra esteira, ao concederem a pris?o domiciliar, ficou evidenciado pela magistratura o entendimento da imprescindibilidade da figura materna para o cuidado dos filhos, resguardando assim o melhor interesse da crian?a. Tal constata??o pode vir a contribuir na elabora??o de a??es afirmativas que subsidiem o fortalecimento das concess?es de pris?o domiciliar, diante do fato, como ficou demonstrado, que a pris?o preventiva de mulheres configura-se enquanto ferramenta de controle social sob a ?gide do recrudescimento da Pol?tica de Seguran?a P?blica conhecida como ?Toler?ncia Zero?.

Cette recherche porte sur la "violence faites aux femmes" en Libye, et plus précisément à Tripoli. Depuis plusieurs années, cette question est interrogée sur les scènes nationale et internationale, donnant lieu à l'adoption de plusieurs textes législatifs. Pourtant, malgré cela, les crimes sexistes continuent de se pratiquer dans les pays développés mais aussi et plus particulièrement dans les pays pauvres. Afin d’étudier le lien entre ces violences et l"état de sous-développement, cette thèse présentera dans une première partie, le champ théorique de l'enquête avant d’expliquer, dans une seconde partie, les particularités du terrain d'enquête, à savoir la société libyenne. Les données concernant les conditions d’existences des femmes, et la législation touchant leur statut permettront, dans le cadre d'une troisième partie, d'analyser les résultats obtenus à un questionnaire soumis à un panel de 45 hommes condamnés ou en attente de jugement, pour le commission d'actes de violence envers les femmes
This research concerns the "violence against women" committed in Libya. For years, this question has been asked on the national and international scene, resulting in the adoption of several law. Yet, despite this, gender-based crimes continue to be practiced in developed countries but also and especially in poor countries. To investigate the link between the violence and the state of underdevelopment, this thesis will present, in a first part, the theorical scope of the study before, in a second part, explaining the characteristics of the field survey : the Liban society. The data concerning the liffe conditions of women, and legislations affecting their will, in the third part, permit to analyse the results to a questionnaire sent to a panel of 45 men, convicted or awaiting judgement for the commission of acts of violence again women

This thesis deals with house arrest punishment as an alternative to classical imprisonment. It starts with analysing various perspectives on the purpose of punishment, penalty function and using human ? law documents defines limits for sentencing in the criminal justice system. Furthermore this work overviews house arrest punishment by historical moments in different legal standards of the Czech Republic since dissolution of the Austro-Hungarian Empire to the present. This work describes the current legal system of house arrest punishment, methods of control, tasks of the Probation and Mediation Service in connection with house arrest punishment and compares it with classic imprisonment. At the same time it contains a brief overview into different foreign laws and ethical analysis of some aspects of house arrest punishment. In conclusion, the author assesses if house arrest punishment fulfils the purpose of the punishment in the soft form of personal freedom limitation and looks at this institution from the perspective of legal aspect ?de lege ferenda?.

The workload of prisons and the increase in crime is not only a problem in the Republic of Serbia but in the region and the whole world. Therefore, the introduction of alternative sanctions is a step toward reducing the prison population, humanizing the sentence, reducing costs, avoiding the harmful consequences of imprisonment such as stigmatization, deprivation and privation instead of rehabilitation, a positive effect on recidivism, crime prevention, and prevention. The application of alternative criminal sanctions is only at first sight more significant only for minor, possibly moderate crimes. In the first place, that is true, because they are intended for this category of crimes - their perpetrators. However, their application is also of great importance for serious crimes, because it saves the resources of criminal justice, which can be focused on combating serious crimes. Unfortunately, we cannot say that our judicial system applies alternative sanctions exclusively in exchange for short-term imprisonment, which is indicated by the data on the number of persons who have served up to one year in prison in previous years. Statistical data for 2020 for the territory of the Republic of Serbia indicate the following application of alternative sanctions, and according to the Law on Execution of Extrajudicial Sanctions and Measures: Imprisonment served in the premises where the convict lives (house arrest with and without electronic supervision) - 3560, Probation with protective supervision- 19, Penalty of work in the public interest (decisions of the misdemeanor and criminal court) -156, Measure prohibiting leaving the apartment (house arrest) with and without electronic supervision -1066. Keywords: alternative sanctions, punishment, penal policy, excessive crime

The subject of the paper is the analysis of the application of house arrest, i.e. the prison sentence that is served in the premises where the convicted person lives, with the aim of pointing out the situation in practice with de lege ferenda proposals. After a brief presentation of the general conceptual framework, purpose and place in the system of criminal sanctions in modern criminal-legal systems and in domestic conditions, the paper presents a normative framework for the application of house arrest in the domain of domestic substantive and executive criminal legislation. Considering the increasingly widespread application of this measure in practice, in a separate part of the paper, disputed issues of both the imposition and execution of house arrest were analyzed, with the argumentation of the need for more precise normative solutions in terms of defining house arrest as a special criminal sanction and not as a modality in the execution of a prison sentence. More precisely regulated issues of competence and organization of the probation service would contribute to overcoming the existing difficulties in the implementation of the house arrest measure.

Architectural and structural recovery of “mastio” and its courtyard of the new fortress of VolterraThe recovery of the “mastio” and the surrounding courtyard of the new fortress of Volterra (1472-1474) has as its objective the opening to the public of this fortified work, after 542 years from its construction, with the possibility of being enjoyed without interposing with the prison function of the complex, it also represents the possibility of knowledge and study of a constructive typology in the context of the Renaissance fortified architecture of the Italian school called “transition” with the use of the first artillery. The fortress was born as a military garrison and at the time of Lorenzo the magnificent only a part was used as a prison, it will be definitively transformed into a House of Imprisonment during the Grand Duchy of Lorraine in the middle of the eighteenth century. It is the first work by Francesco di Giovanni di Matteo called the Francione (1428-1495), it has an almost square shape with large cylindrical towers at the corners (rondelle) and at the center of the inner courtyard, a large cylindrical tower like of “mastio” (donjon) and inserted the artillery in the walls. The “mastio” consists of a basement and five floors above ground with a domed roof and connected by a narrow spiral staircase. After the cognitive essays carried out on the internal domes of the “mastio”, placed in the first three floors including the cistern, the presence of “hemispherical domes” emerged, made by workers of the Opera del Duomo in Florence, built entirely in bricks without the carpentry of “centina” (self-supporting), with the system called “alla fiorentina”, as well as the dome of Santa Maria del Fiore in Florence by Filippo Brunelleschi. This construction system is also applied in the fortified structures of Pietrasanta, Poggibonsi, Sarzanello, Castrocaro, Pisa and Terra del Sole.

In this study, we present results from a numerical model of a full-scale fracture propagation test where the pipe sections are filled with impure, dense liquid-phase carbon dioxide. All the pipe sections had a 24″ outer diameter and a diameter/thickness ratio of ∼32. A near symmetric telescopic set-up with increasing toughness in the West and East directions was applied. Due to the near symmetric conditions in both set-up and results, only the East direction is modelled in the numerical study. The numerical model is built in the framework of the commercial finite element (FE) software LS-DYNA. The fluid dynamics is solved using an in-house computational fluid dynamics (CFD) solver which is coupled with the FE solver through a user-defined loading subroutine. As part of the coupling scheme, the FE model sends the crack opening profile to the CFD solver which returns the pressure from the fluid. The pipeline is discretized by shell elements, while the backfill is represented by the smoothed-particle hydrodynamics (SPH) method. The steel pipe is described by the J2 constitutive model and an energy-based fracture criterion, while the Mohr-Coulomb material model is applied for the backfill material. The CFD solver applies a one-dimensional homogeneous equilibrium model where the thermodynamic properties of the CO2 are represented by the Peng-Robinson equation-of-state (EOS). The results from the simulations in terms of crack velocity and pressure agree well with the experimental data for the low and medium toughness pipe sections, while a conservative prediction is given for the high-toughness section. Further work for strengthening the reliability of the model to predict the arrest vs. no-arrest boundary of a running ductile fracture is addressed.
