Drawing on the expertise and experience of contributors from a wide
range of academic, professional and judicial backgrounds, the
Research Handbook on the International Penal System critically
analyses the laws, policies and practices that govern detention,
punishment and the enforcement of sentences in the international
criminal justice context. Comprehensive and innovative, it examines
the operation of the international penal system, covering pertinent
issues such as non-custodial sanctions, monitoring of conditions of
detention, the protection of prisoners under international law and
the transfer of prisoners. These aspects are presented in a logical
order, linking up with the chronological sequence of the
international criminal justice process. Far-reaching, this Handbook
also explores broader normative questions related to contemporary
human rights law, transitional and restorative justice and victim
redress, before exploring contemporary and alternative mechanisms
for punishing and overseeing punishment, and possible avenues for
development. This up-to-date assessment will provide valuable
insights for researchers and students of international criminal law
and justice, comparative penal law, penology, prisoners' rights and
transitional and restorative justice. Its recommendations for
development will also interest international and national officials
working in criminal law and justice. Contributors: D. Abels, K.
