Product Description

The U.N. Standard Minimum Rules for the Treatment of Prisoners-1957 have nearly a century of history behind. It was indeed humanitarian in approach to prisoners. Nearly 60 years have elapsed since the Rules were accepted by the United Nations. Certainly, the Rules need a revision now because of (1) a long lapse of six decades, and (2) developments in the fields of correction, reformation, resocialization, rehabilitation and reintegration of the inmates (in a Centre of Personality Development—as the Prisons are now called) to society back. This book contains a complete revision of the existing UNSMR for the Treatment of Prisoners from 1970 as an international debate (discussion) is going on ever since. The book will be of great interest for anyone concerned with the protection of human dignity, to exclude cruelty, neglect and degradation to the inmates in a Centre of Personality Development and, in particular, to minimize the effect and impact of isolation or segregation from the community, whatever be the offence committed.
