Abstract

У статті розглянуто тенденції розвитку виконання покарання у виді позбавлення волі на певний строк через призму реформування кримінально виконавчої системи України. Вказано, що основною проблемою, яка спостерігається в установах виконання покарань, є нівелювання співробітниками своїх обов’язків. Зазначено, що більшість працівників формально відносяться до виконання своїх функціональних обов’язків, що негативно відбивається на виховній та ресоціалізаційний роботі.

The article addresses to the development tendencies of execution of punishment in the form of imprisonment for a certain term regading the reformation the criminal and executive system of Ukraine. The main problem is pointed out and observed in correctional institutions which are the leveling of personnel duties. The author of the article notes that most personnel formally relate to the performance of their functional duties, which has a negative impact on educational and resocial work. Currently, most correctional institutions and colonies remain destructive criminal subculture, hierarchy, etc., which deprives convicts of the opportunity to change their style of thinking and move away from illegal activities. Another disadvantage is the lack of a full opportunity to acquire new skills and basic education, which will provide an opportunity to work after release from prison. Rational division of labor between convicts will also be able to have a positive impact on the material part of correctional institutions and the state budget. The author emphasizes that occupational therapy is one of the effective ways to re-educate criminals and learn to interact with others, which will contribute to the development of collective responsibility. The contemptuous attitude of the personnel towards the convicts is one of the main reasons why the latter have a negative perception of pedagogical (educational) activities. This is facilitated by conditions of isolation, malnutrition and their victimization by both convicts and personnel. The conclusion id made that at present the criminal and executive system cannot be a model worthy of demonstration to international colleagues. With regard to the process of serving a sentence in the form of imprisonment, the main ways to improve it are to create the most appropriate conditions for the detention and re-education of convicts. Currently, our country does not have appropriate strategies, due to crisis trends and changes in the sociopolitical and economic situation.
