Probation to social services (or external criminal area) is one of the alternative measures to detention provided for by the Italian prison system. This institution allows the person receiving a final sentence to serve all or part of his sentence outside prison, as the case may be. The aim is to re-educate and resocialize the prisoner by promoting his re-integration and re-integration into civil society, taking him out of the prison environment. The statistical-quantitative method used made it possible to collect the data through the Italian Ministry of Justice and the External Criminal Enforcement Offices (EU). The data was processed using MathLab R2015B (July to December 2020). Overall final results for the years 2014 to 2019 showed in percentage terms (in many cases more than 80%) the validity of the instrument of probation to social services in terms of re-education and re- socialisation of prisoners and very low recidivism rates.

Abstract
Probation to social services (or external criminal area) is one of the alternative measures to detention provided for by the Italian prison system. This institution allows the person receiving a final sentence to serve all or part of his sentence outside prison, as the case may be. The aim is to re-educate and resocialize the prisoner by promoting his re-integration and re-integration into civil society, taking him out of the prison environment. The statistical-quantitative method used made it possible to collect the data through the Italian Ministry of Justice and the External Criminal Enforcement Offices (EU). The data was processed using MathLab R2015B (July to December 2020). Overall final results for the years 2014 to 2019 showed in percentage terms (in many cases more than 80%) the validity of the instrument of probation to social services in terms of re-education and re- socialisation of prisoners and very low recidivism rates.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
