MOTHERHOOD OF FEMALE PRISONERS AND THE EFFECTIVENESS OF SOCIAL REHABILITATION INTERACTIONS

Abstract

The penalty of imprisonment against women who commit crimes is often discussed in the in the rehabilitation literature . Many researchers are wondering about the social rehabilitation function, because women in isolation are exposed to the phenomenon of “prizonization”. The issue of bringing up a child while their mothers were imprisoned appeared relatively recently, at the end of the 20th century. It was significantly influenced by the pedagogy of Maria Łopatkowa (mother and child in prison).
