Prison Reform


Prison Reform



  • These are the issues I focused on to show why Sweden should rethink its justice system and how they treat inmates.

  • Sweden takes pride in the fact that they rehab and treat inmates rather than punish.

  • Along with not punishing them the prisoners get all the privileges listed.

  • I enjoyed doing the research on this topic because there was plenty of resources and info online.  I had no idea how the prisons were in Sweden.  Although I gave my opinion on the subject in my research paper, and it was that the prisons are lenient, I am not sure what would really help the situation.  Here in the United States we have a more conservative justice system and we also have our problems.  I am sure that this is a topic that is discussed worldwide with passion.  I just wish there were more views from people in different countries on the internet. 

  • But seeing as how when, Saddam Hussein was captured, he had his lawyer request that he go to a Swedish Prison, it makes you wonder if what Sweden is doing is the right thing.
