12th Annual Conference of the European Society of Criminology BOOK OF ABSTRACT JONI REEF LEIdEN uNIvERSITy, LEIdEN, NEThERLANdS pAuL NIEuWBEERTA LEIdEN uNIvERSITy, LEIdEN, NEThERLANdS Mental health problems are common in prison populations. However, little knowledge exists regarding changes in symptoms in custody over time. The aims of the current paper are: 1) to examine the longitudinal course of mental health problems during the first 3 months in custody and 2) to explore factors associated with changes in prisoners’ mental health problems. Data are used from the Dutch Prison Project, a longitudinal study on the effects of imprisonment on the further lives of prisoners. 848 male prisoners provided information on their mental health 3 weeks and 3 months after their arrival in prison. The Brief Symptom Inventory was used to assess mental health problems. Compared to the general population, prisoners reported more mental health problems shortly after their arrival in prison. Most mental health problems seem to decline over time. However, after 3 months, prisoners still reported the same level of depressive symptoms. SENTENCING ANd RESTORATIvE JuSTICE ThEORy: A GOvERNMENTALITy pERSpECTIvE JONAThAN dOAK duRhAM uNIvERSITy, duRhAM, uNITEd KINGdOM dAvId O’MAhONy duRhAM uNIvERSITy, duRhAM, uNITEd KINGdOM The traditional justifications for sentencing: retribution; deterrence; rehabilitation and incapacitation have been subject to increasing critique over the past 30 years. Drawing on the concept of governmentality, the authors propose a new conceptual framework that reflects the increasing tendency to mainstream restorative-based responses to crime within conventional court-based sentencing practice. In light of these developments, the authors argue that sentencing is best theorised in terms of responsibilisation and accountability. Taken together, these themes encompass the rights and interests of victims, offenders and the community and also hold the potential to boost the overall legitimacy of the criminal justice system.

12th Annual Conference of the European Society of Criminology BOOK OF ABSTRACT use of commissioning and competition to increase the involvement of voluntary not-for-profit organisations and private companies in the delivery of probation services and the renewed interest in offender engagement as a means of improving the outcomes of community supervision. The paper investigates the tensions inherent in these policies and considers the challenge of ensuring that offenders find supervision coherent and purposeful. It will discuss the circumstances in which good practice is most likely to emerge. The paper draws on work from the first stages of a PhD project that will explore the offender experience of supervision in the context of a mixed market for providers. RESTORATIvE JuSTICE IN GERMANy ANd IN OThER WESTERN EuROpEAN COuNTRIES FRIEdER duENKEL uNIvERSITy OF GREIFSWALd, GREIFSWALd, GERMANy Elements of Restorative Justice have been implemented into Juvenile and Adult Criminal Law in all Western European countries since the mid of the 1980’s. Victim-offender-mediation has become an important alternative to more repressive sanctions not only in juvenile justice systems. Recently in some countries family group conferencing has been implemented in some jurisdictions (Belgium, Northern Ireland etc.). As western European countries dispose of longer experiences with restorative justice elements it will be possible to present some data on “good, promising, questionable or bad practices”. Interestingly some projects have been established also in prisons in order to motivate offenders to make reparation or efforts for mediation with victims. The practice in Western Europe seems to be rather diverse. Major importance is given to mediation and restorative justice in Belgium, Finland, Northern Ireland, France and Germany, although the numbers in most countries remain modest. ThE GREIFSWALd pROJECT ON RESTORATIvE JuSTICE IN pENAL MATTERS IN EuROpE FRIEdER duENKEL uNIvERSITy OF GREIFSWALd, GREIFSWALd, GERMANy This workshop will present the project on restorative justice in penal matters in Europe – funded by the European Commission within the specific “Criminal Justice Programme 2007-2013” – that the Department of Criminology at the University of Greifswald, Germany, has been conducting since July 2011 and which shall run until June 2013. The project aims to ‘take stock’ of the availability and use of restorative justice in a total of 36 European countries. The aim is to provide an up-todate and comprehensive overview of restorative approaches in penal settings and contexts all over Europe, and to identify factors that are conducive or unfavourable (as well as good, promising, questionable or bad practices) to the successful introduction, implementation, organization and delivery of restorative justice approaches in penal matters. The basis for comparative investigation shall be provided in the form of national reports authored by experts in the field of restorative puNIShMENT & ITS ALTERNATIvES 89
