"Locking people up is easy. And usually leads to nothing." Bernd MaelickeThe German prison system is expensive and largely unsuccessful: every year, around fifty thousand people are released from prisons in Germany, which is equivalent to the population of a city like Passau. More than half of them have committed minor or moderate offences, and almost a third are dangerous or serious criminals. Because most of those released reoffend, the German prison system is a "revolving door prison system" that costs around 4.5 billion euros a year nationwide.Using case studies, successful projects, personal experiences, empirical figures and facts, Bernd Maelicke explains why and how the overall system of outpatient and inpatient resocialisation needs to be improved. He argues in favour of expanding probation services, for example, to help ex-offenders integrate more effectively into society. This is the only way to prevent further offences, especially by young offenders, and to protect potential victims. "A motivational book for a rational crime policy and an exciting read not only for experts." (Süddeutsche Zeitung) "An exciting report on everyday life in German prisons." (Stern Crime) "With his book, Maelicke provides an impressive insight into everyday prison life and initiates an overdue discussion." (Sächsische Zeitung) "The author knows what he is writing about." (Neues Deutschland) "An extremely readable book: a must-read not only for those involved in domestic and judicial policy." (NDR Info "Das politische Buch") "A readable and unsparing analysis of the strengths and weaknesses of the resocialisation system - and an appeal." (Deutschlandfunk "Andruck").
