Summary/Abstract: In the modern penitentiary thought, the times when a penal institution was just a place of isolation and a building whose architecture testifies that criminals have been separated from the law abiding society are long gone. Resocialization is a process which aims to restore persons who break social and legal norms to social environment. The author emphasizes that resocialization work with inmates and creating perspectives for a better future may become an effective means of prevention of returning to crime.
