Non-Custodial Sanctions: Alternative Models for Post-Communist Societies is the first global approach of imprisonment substitutes round the world from the perspective of reforming East European law systems in transition. Substitutes used in both traditional and high-tech societies are analyzed by group (pre-trial, sentencing, post-judicial) and system affiliations (civil law, common law, other legal systems), with a focus on probation. Their effectiveness is put on the spotlight with the aim that post-Communist lawmakers would avoid the pitfalls experienced by the traditional democracy systems. The book appeals both to specialists in law, criminal justice and political sciences, and to anyone interested in post-Communist transitional societies.
