Summary:Presenting transcribed interviews of corrections leaders, this book offers a comprehensive survey of correctional programming and management styles used across nations. Volume Two in this series extends the reach to several new countries, including Slovenia, Slovakia, and Northern Ireland. The interviews are conducted by scholars or practitioners with intimate knowledge of correctional practice and who are familiar with the correctional system in the country of the interviewees. They ask correction leaders specifically about the impact of the economic downturn on corrections in each country, changes in correctional practice, and how they think about and evaluate trends and developments.
