In the international penitentiary world, the Dutch prison system has long been seen as a shining example. In the last decades, however, prison provisions were demolished rapidly. In 30 years, the prison rate increased fivefold which is, in relative numbers, comparable to the growth in the United States. This increase in numbers came together with substantial changes to typical aspects of the Dutch prison system - the legal position of detainees, rehabilitation efforts, and medical care. This volume presents an overview of these changes in different sectors of the prison system including adults, youth, the mentally disturbed, alien detainees, and persistent offenders. The book provides insight from both inside as well as outside the system and presents an international perspective as well.
