The aim of this study is to investigate the institution of the “probationary pe- riod” for juvenile offenders in Italy, after the suspension of criminal proceed- ings. The aim of this alternative measure to detention is to re-educate and re- socialise minors who have entered the criminal circuit, avoiding traumatic contact with prison and the reiteration of criminal conduct. The data collec- tion was carried out through the cooperation of the Italian Juvenile Service Offices and the Ministry of Justice. The statistical method used Mathlab R2020b made it possible to process data from 2010 to 2020 to quantify criminal con- duct, types and specificity of offences committed by Italian and foreign mi- nors (both male and female), as well as to verify the effectiveness of proba- tion. The positive results exceed 80% and demonstrate the effectiveness of the “probationary period” instrument in the process of re-education and re-socia- lisation of juvenile offenders.

Abstract: | The aim of this study is to investigate the institution of the “probationary pe- riod” for juvenile offenders in Italy, after the suspension of criminal proceed- ings. The aim of this alternative measure to detention is to re-educate and re- socialise minors who have entered the criminal circuit, avoiding traumatic contact with prison and the reiteration of criminal conduct. The data collec- tion was carried out through the cooperation of the Italian Juvenile Service Offices and the Ministry of Justice. The statistical method used Mathlab R2020b made it possible to process data from 2010 to 2020 to quantify criminal con- duct, types and specificity of offences committed by Italian and foreign mi- nors (both male and female), as well as to verify the effectiveness of proba- tion. The positive results exceed 80% and demonstrate the effectiveness of the “probationary period” instrument in the process of re-education and re-socia- lisation of juvenile offenders. |
