Author(s): Merita H. Meçe / Language(s): English Issue: 1/2016

Human trafficking is a new phenomenon of Albanian post-socialist society which significantly increased during the difficult years of its transformation from centralized state-led economy to market economy. Both economic and political instability contributed to its size, nature and multiple dynamics. Drawing on a rights-based approach to human trafficking, this paper examines the effectiveness of the counter-trafficking response of the Albanian government with a special emphasis on prevention, protection and prosecution. Using secondary data and reviewing various country strategic documents, it highlights a range of weaknesses and challenges which have hindered its effectiveness over years. It concludes that successful and effective counter-trafficking response requires well rounded and coordinated gender sensitive, victim-centred, holistic and human rights-based efforts. Combined with adequate law enforcement, they will sustainably tackle the full spectrum of this problem.

Author(s): Joanna Kruczalak-Jankowska / Language(s): Polish Issue: XXXII/2014

The article is devoted to the legal situation of a marine vessel in the bankruptcy proceedings. Similar to the enforcement proceedings, the situation of a vessel depends largely on its legal status, for example whether it is registered in the register of ships or not. The bankruptcy and restructuring law provides a different mode of sale in the liquidation of the bankruptcy estate with respect to a ship entered in the register of ships than in case of other movable properties. The act also repeatedly uses the term “maritime mortgage". Bankruptcy does not deprive the mortgage (including, of course, maritime mortgage) of its protective function. In this respect, however, distinct features of maritime mortgage can be noticed, as marine vessels can also be burdened with a lien or marine privileges.

Author(s): Nataša Mrvić-Petrović / Language(s): Serbian Issue: 2/2012

This paper analyzes the comparative solutions in Common law and the European legal system concerning the execution sentence on weekends, in the regime of semi-custody or weekend custody. These solutions are regulated by the prison treatment as new, so called split sentences, special modes of execution of short term prison sentence or are used in the conditional release for additional control behavior of released prisoners and implementation of treatment. The advantage of these measures is that they are a convenience for the convicted persons retain a job or be allowed to continue their education. The disadvantages are related to difficulties in organizing the execution and low motivation of prisoners to engage in work activities that are organized for them during conditional release. However, solutions of the prison treatment can be inspiring for the Republic of Serbia, which has a large prison population convicted on short time prison sentences.

Ugrožavanje ljudske bezbednosti destruktivnim nasiljem

Author(s): Ljubo S. Pejanović,Mile Rakić,Dragana peči / Language(s): Serbian Issue: 01/2016

Rad ukazuje na problematiku koja se odnosi na neke pretnje nasiljem kojem pribegavaju određene destruktivne skupine ili pojedinci u državi. Svako destruktivno ugrožavanje kapaciteta sistema bezbednosti države i njenih građana predstavlja stalnu i veliku pretnju i bezbednosni rizik za državu i društvo u celini. Posledice ugrožavanja se najčešće manifestuju na zdravlje i život ljudi, imovinu i druge vrednosti građana, kao i kapacitete države. U lepezi navedenih oblika i vrsta ugrožavanja ljudske bezbednosti najčešće se ispoljavaju oružane pretnje, agresija, terorizam, obaveštajne aktivnosti, zločinačko udruživanje, organizovani kriminalitet, korupcija, destruktivne sekte, huliganstvo i druge kriminalne aktivnosti. Destruktivno nasilje je uvek usmereno na pretnju i nanošenje straha, motivisano ilegalnim sticanjem finansijske dobiti koja se usmerava na produkciju daljih oblika ugrožavanja kroz finansiranje terorističkih i kriminalnih organizacija, nabavku savremenog oružja, plaćanje raznih usluga itd. Oružane pretnje i intervencije usmerene su na dominaciju, okupaciju ili uticaj na žrtvu – pojedinca, grupu ili državu. Terorističke akcije najčešće su usmerene na ostvarivanje određenih političkih ciljeva kroz pretnje i izazivanje straha, ali i ljudske i materijalne gubitke. Specijalne obaveštajne aktivnosti usmerene su na otkrivanje relevantnih podataka i informacija u cilju sprečavanja oblika nasilja prema državi i njenim građanima.1 Zločinačka udruženja predstavljaju veliku pretnju za bezbednosni sistem države, u ovom slučaju Republike Srbije, jer primenjuju različite oblike i metode delovanja – pljačke, iznude, prinude, ucene i likvidacije određenih ličnosti sa ciljem izazivanja straha kod vlasti i stanovništva, sticanja materijalne koristi i uticaja na vlast u državi. Organizovani kriminalitet predstavlja pretnju izvršenjem različitih oblika kriminalnog nasilja koje je primenom koruptivnih radnji ili aktivnosti usmereno na vrednosti pojedinaca ili države. Danas smo svedoci i kriminalnih aktivnosti destruktivnih sekti koje uz terorističke akcije sprovode nasilje i nad svojim članovima, kao i članovima njihovih porodica. Huliganstvo, takođe, kao društvena pojava novijeg doba predstavlja veliku pretnju po celokupan sistem bezbednosti države. Metodom uporedne analize sadržaja dokumenata relevantnih za oblast nasilja i ugrožavanja bezbednosti došlo se do zaključka da su vrste nasilja i destruktivno ugrožavanje bezbednosti države u stalnom porastu.

SUPERMAKS ZAVODI I ĆELIJSKA IZOLACIJA: Istorijat, pojmovno određenje i razlozi širenja primene

Author(s): Đorđe M. Ignjatović / Language(s): Serbian Issue: 3/2019

After short reminding on more than a one-century abandoned Philadelphian model of solitary confinement, the definition of supermax prison has been given: this is a penitentiary institution in which persons deprived of freedom are held in the long cell confinement by a decision of authorities in the conditions of strict control and supervision. By opinion of the author, this definition includes all institutions if they satisfied stated condition, regardless of organizational model, the judicial status of persons situated in those institutions, as well as decision and reasons of detention. The birthplace of these institutions are the USA, and time of its introduction (the last quarter of 20th century) is characterized by the sharpening of criminal reaction in the wave of penal populism and strengthening of retributive models of sentencing which broth to brutal rebellions in the prisons, which has been violently suppressed, and resulted in more serious rebellions. Way out form this circle of violence was traced in institutions in which prisoners are whole day isolated without any human communication. This new solution has been popularized not only by penitential authorities, but also by: workers in the prison industry complex; local communities in which those prisons are situated; and by citizens, to whom has been suggested that is the only way to protect themselves from the most dangerous criminals. At first sight, we can recognize that those arguments are without serious weight. Although those institutions still survive and represent one of the bases of the penitential system in America. This trend, with few exceptions, has spread in the other parts of the world, including Serbia, in which the heaviest crime perpetrators can be sanded to isolation by the court decision.

Running on the treadmill: Practitioner experiences of mass supervision

Author(s): Matt Cracknell / Language(s): English Issue: 2/2022

This article explores the impacts that the addition of individuals serving short sentences has had on daily practice and working culture for probation workers. These practitioner perspectives are explored through the lens of ‘mass supervision’, providing a new insight into the harms and implications for its inherent deskilling qualities and constraints. This empirical research underlines three main themes related to the harms caused by mass supervision: firstly, that it inhibits innovative practice; secondly, that it necessitates a more limited model of supervision that undermines practitioner autonomy and the reach and scope of the supervisory relationship; and thirdly, that mass supervision corrodes the values of probation staff, leaving many experienced practitioners struggling ethically, practically and emotionally. The experience of mass supervision is compared to a treadmill by several practitioners and employed as a metaphor to analyse practice in the confines of mass supervision as generic, monotonous and relentless.
