Verrohung der Gesellschaft

Moin,

Ich bin mir nicht ganz so sicher, ob diese Organisation einen guten Leumund hat. Deshalb hier der ein offizielles, recht aktuelles Statement des US-Justizministeriums.

What did the researchers find?
The studies of boot camps produced mixed results: Participants reported positive short-term changes in attitudes and behaviors; they also had better
problem-solving and coping skills.
With few exceptions, these positive changes did not lead to reduced recidivism. The boot camps that did produce lower recidivism rates offered more treatment services, had longer sessions, and included more intensive postrelease supervision. However, not all programs with these features had successful results.
Under a narrow set of conditions, boot camps can lead to small relative reductions in prison populations and correctional costs.
