offender compliance during penal supervision and after a court
order expires. Experts based in jurisdictions in Europe, Australia,
the United States and Canada have contributed chapters which
provide rich insights into international perspectives on offender
compliance. The book highlights the multidimensionality of
compliance, its dynamics and its mechanisms. There is also a
detailed examination of the compliance issues that may be relevant
to specific groups such as women and young people who offend.

during penal supervision, this book addresses the gap in the
literature by presenting emerging international developments in
compliance theory, research and practice.
This book will appeal academics in the fields of criminology,
sociology, psychology, social policy and social work. It will also
be a valuable resource for policy makers, criminal justice
practitioners and other practitioners who are engaged in work that
involves encouraging compliance with legal orders. These include
police, prison, probation, youth justice and social service
practitioners.
Can offenders be rehabilitated? Can this be done in ways that
benefit the community as a whole, as well as offenders? This book

rehabilitation and about 'what works' have influenced criminal
justice policy and practice at different times, and it identifies a
number of promising approaches for the future. Everyone interested
