Abstract:
With the dawn of the 21st century, electronic monitoring can be found in many Western European countries. In England, Sweden and the Netherlands, projects using electronic monitoring are well-established in the penal and correctional systems. Pilot projects can be observed in Belgium, France, Germany, Italy, Portugal, Switzerland and Spain.
The workshop entitled "Will Electronic Monitoring Have a Future in Europe?" took place in Freiburg (June13th-15th, 2002) and was attended by practitioners and research fellows from each European country applying or experimenting with electronic monitoring, as well as scientists who were recognized as experts on this subject. Key issues were the presentation of programmes and evaluation research on electronic monitoring. This anthology which contains the presentations given in the workshop, aims to be a worthwhile contribution to the advancement of the research on electronic monitoring and the surrounding discussions and debates.
