Abstract

The modern criminal justice system includes community corrections, which play a preventive role in lowering recidivism among offenders. However, some offenders continue to commit crimes during community corrections. This research focuses on community corrections in Chinese community policing practice, particularly offender recidivism. The study collected a total of 500 questionnaires from offenders in the provincial administrative regions of northern China, which included first offense status, psychological status, and recidivism behavior. The study found that most recidivists are usually arrested for “drunk driving”, which may be related to their ability to exercise self-restraint, and that alcohol may contribute to their deviant behavior. Another important finding relates to young recidivists, who may have difficulty securing employment during community corrections and thus use crime again to gain income. In general, this study explores the offender population in Chinese community corrections practice and discusses the factors within it that influence offender recidivism. This may support law enforcement agencies in further evaluating the effectiveness of community corrections, and may provide new information for understanding community corrections in China.
他们是否构成危险:中国社区矫正中累犯特征的评价?
现代刑事司法制度包括社区矫正,社区矫正在降低罪犯再犯罪率方面发挥着预防作用。然而,一些罪犯在社区矫正期间继续犯罪。本文主要研究中国社区警务实践中的社区矫正问题,特别是罪犯累犯问题。本研究共收集了500份来自中国北方省级行政区的罪犯的调查问卷,包括初犯状况、心理状况和再犯行为。研究发现,大多数惯犯通常因“酒后驾车”被捕,这可能与他们自我约束的能力有关,而酒精可能会导致他们的越轨行为。另一个重要的发现与年轻的累犯有关,他们在社区矫正期间可能很难找到工作,因此再次使用犯罪来获得收入。总体而言,本研究考察了中国社区矫正实践中的罪犯群体,并探讨了其内部影响罪犯再犯的因素。这可能有助于执法机构进一步评估社区矫正的有效性,并可能为了解中国的社区矫正提供新的信息。
