SOCIAL WORK IN DEALING WITH OFFENDERS
Abstract
The paper aims to provide theoretical justification of the concept of the so-called judicial social
work. This seems rather necessary because the traditional idea and practice of offenders
rehabilitation are in crisis, and the Polish penitentiary thought is in sure stagnation. Hence an urgent
need to revive it by offering some new paradigms.
In the author’s opinion, one o f the possible directions, to some extent alternative to traditional
rehabilitation, is social work. This kind of influence on criminals is then analysed in two planes: that
of good practice and as a test of its generalization to the level of a scientific theory. Basing on his
earlier publications, the author then extends his vision of judicial social work by reference to the
theory of social control proposed by T. Hirschi. Thus the paper links to the issues raised on the 4th
Polish Penal Congress which took place on 22-24 November 2006 in the Main Training Centre of
Prison Service in Kalisz, and is an original attempt to creating new paradigms of social work in
justice.
