More about the book

The book explores Germany's low incarceration rates and the influence of social welfare principles in its criminal justice system. It traces the historical roots of this approach to the reform movements during the Wilhelmine and Weimar periods, highlighting efforts by reformers to shift from state control and incarceration towards private institutions focused on protective supervision. This examination reveals how these historical reforms have shaped contemporary practices in Germany's approach to criminal justice.
