The Eye of a Needle: Temporary Prison Leave in Ukraine

Although temporary prison leave humanises custodial punishment, offsets its negative effects, and prepares prisoners for (re)integration into wider society, its use proves to be controversial and uneven across jurisdictions. Since the collapse of the USSR, the former Soviet countries have been pursuing different criminal justice policies, liberalising some penal practices whilst retaining many punitive Soviet legacies. Through analysis of the legal provisions regulating temporary prison leave and official statistics in Ukraine, I demonstrate the apparent strain between the official policies and practice. Whilst legally available, temporary leave for prisoners in closed prisons is almost never granted in this Eastern European country. I argue that for Ukraine to reconcile the official rhetoric of rehabilitation and social reintegration of offenders and actual implementation of penal policies, the country must reverse the underlying requirements governing temporary prison leave and expand its use.

针眼:乌克兰的临时监狱假

虽然临时监狱假使监禁惩罚人性化,抵消其负面影响,并使囚犯为(重新)融入更广泛的社会做好准备,但事实证明,其使用在不同司法管辖区之间存在争议且不均衡。苏联解体后,前苏联国家采取了不同的刑事司法政策,放宽了一些刑罚措施,同时保留了许多惩罚性的苏联遗产。通过对乌克兰关于临时监狱假的法律条款和官方统计数据的分析,我展示了官方政策和实践之间的明显压力。虽然在法律上可用,但在这个东欧国家几乎从未允许囚犯在封闭监狱中临时休假。
