Abstract

[full article, abstract in English; abstract in Lithuanian] First experiments with electronic monitoring emerged in Europe in the early 1990s. Within 15 years, the majority of countries in Europe reported having introduced electronic monitoring at least as pilot projects. The amazing dynamic rise of electronic monitoring in Europe may be explained by the commercial interests that become evident when looking at the activities of private companies selling the technique. Although electronic monitoring seems to have expanded in many countries, one has to realize its marginal role within the European sanctions systems compared to other sentencing or release options. On average, only about 3% of all probationary supervised persons were under electronic monitoring at the end of 2013. This article deals with questions regarding the impact of electronic monitoring on prison population rates and reduced reoffending, with net-widening effects and costs, essential rehabilitative support, human rights-based perspectives and the general (non)sense of electronic monitoring.
欧洲电子监控——改革刑事制裁制度的灵丹妙药?批评性评论
[全文,英文摘要;20世纪90年代初,欧洲出现了第一批电子监控实验。在15年内,欧洲大多数国家报告至少作为试点项目采用了电子监测。电子监控在欧洲的迅猛发展也许可以用商业利益来解释,这一点在观察私人公司销售这种技术的活动时变得显而易见。虽然电子监测在许多国家似乎已经扩大,但人们必须认识到,与其他量刑或释放办法相比,它在欧洲制裁制度中的作用是微不足道的。截至2013年底,平均只有约3%的试用监管人员受到电子监控。本文讨论电子监测对监狱人口率和减少再犯的影响、扩大净影响和成本、必要的康复支助、基于人权的观点和电子监测的一般(非)意义等问题。
