This book provides an assessment of contemporary international knowledge about the experiences of life after release from prison. For over 100 years people leaving prison have been supervised by probation services, but little has been written about how those who are supervised experience this process, or how this process influences experiences post-release. Research suggests that the success or failure of supervision in terms of reoffending may be related to how it is experienced, but little has been written about how supervision interacts with these experiences. Despite this lack of grounded knowledge, post-prison supervision continues to grow internationally.
This book addresses issues relating to life after release through providing a vision of contemporary life after prison in different social and economic climates from those who are the subjects of this growing and changing form of penal power. An engaging and timely study, this book will be of particular interest to scholars of criminal justice and punishment.

Pressezitat
“Parole and Beyond’ represents an invaluable work of scholarship that does not hold its punches. It makes it abundantly clear that ‘supervision risks demotivating the motivated in its hope of restricting the unmotivated’, and the book offers practical and realistic solutions for reform. This collection merits wide readership amongst policymakers, academics, and students alike.” (Mark Alexander, Prison Service Journal, Issue 236, March, 2018)
