This is the sixth edition of a data collection initiative that started in 1993 under the umbrella of the Council of Europe and has been continued since 2000 by an international group of experts. These experts also act as regional coordinators of a network of national correspondents whose contribution has been decisive in collecting and validating data on a variety of subjects from 42 countries. The Sourcebook is composed of six chapters. The first five cover the current main types of national crime and criminal justice statistics – police, prosecution, conviction, prison, and probation statistics – for the years 2011 to 2016, providing detailed analysis for 2015. The sixth chapter covers national victimization surveys, providing rates for the main indicators every five years from 1990 to 2015. As with every new edition of the Sourcebook, the group has tried to improve data quality as well as comparability and, where appropriate, increase the scope of data collection. This new edition will continue to promote comparative research throughout Europe and make European experiences and data available worldwide.

On 22 June 2018 the 12th Colloquium on Criminal Law and Justice took place in Göttingen, followed by a farewell symposium for Jörg-Martin Jehle on the next day. In the same year, Jörg-Martin Jehle retired after 22 years of work at the Georg August University of Göttingen. This event coincided with the 50th anniversary of criminology in Göttingen, the topic of the 12th Colloquium. This book is based on these occasions, but also contains some additional articles in honor of Jörg-Martin Jehle from close companions, who for different reasons were not able to participate in the two events. This volume comprises articles on the history of criminological research at Göttingen University and on the topics of custodial sanctions, offender research, sentencing effects, penal law reform as well as historical and international perspectives. All the papers are related to the research work of Jörg-Martin Jehle.
Die vorliegende Arbeit befasst sich mit der bundesländervergleichenden rechtlichen Analyse der Regelungen von vollzugsöffnenden Maßnahmen und der rechtstatsächlichen Entwicklung. Im Rahmen einer empirischen Analyse im Kurzstrafenvollzug des Landes Mecklenburg-Vorpommern in der JVA Stralsund werden vertiefende Erkenntnisse zur Praxis vollzugsöffnender Maßnahmen präsentiert. Unter vollzugsöffnenden Maßnahmen werden insbesondere die klassischen Vollzugslockerungen des Ausgangs, des Langzeitausgangs (im StVollzG von 1977 als Beurlaubungen bezeichnet) und des Freigangs verstanden, aber auch die Verlegung in den offenen Strafvollzug, jeweils im Rahmen der Entlassungsvorbereitung bzw. des sog. Übergangsmanagements. Die Fragestellung der empirischen Untersuchung bezieht sich auf die Gewährungspraxis entsprechender Maßnahmen, die Charakteristika der betroffenen Insassen sowie die seltenen Fälle des Scheiterns bzw. von Auffälligkeiten während Vollzugslockerungen.
