THEORETICAL AND PRACTICAL ISSUES FOR DEVELOPING THE PROCESS OF PLACING CONVICTS IN PRISON

Abstract

Basing on the analysis of theoretical foundations, management and organization of the process of placing convicts in prison, the paper offers a way to improve such activities. The author argues that the current mechanism of keeping convicts in prison has hardly any qualified and timely educational, pedagogical, psychological effect on them. In this regard, it is suggested that the process of placement in prisons must start from the expiry of the term of the convict’s stay in the quarantine unit and end with the period of serving the sentence allotted by the legislator under the ordinary conditions. The paper presents the results of studying the adaptation of convicts in some prisons. This work on the adaptation of the convicts has a positive impact on their placement in prisons.
