Description
Summary:Given the ongoing criticism that since decades undergo imprisonment, especially concerning the short prison sentences, there are few proposals which mainly aim to provide punitive solutions outside the prison environment. In the context of comparative law, there are several mechanisms that even have a consolidated legal support in recent years. The aim of this paper is to present a number of alternatives to imprisonment contained in the German, Austrian and Swiss criminal law, paying particular attention to the suspension of prisons sentences, community service and diversion programs.
