Reintegration of formerly convictedindividuals into the labor market. : A literature study of structural and psychological factors affectingemployability and recidivism reduction. (English)
Abstract [en]

This comprehensive literature study explores the reintegration of former convicts into society, highlighting key sociopsychological factors. Focused on the application of three pivotal theories: Stigmatisation Theory, Stigmatization Theory, and Social Control Theory, it provides valuable insights into the challenges and dynamics of re-entry. The research elucidates the severe mental health struggles that ex-offenders frequently face, reinforcing the importance of psychological support and interventions in the reintegration process. The Social Control Theory application underscores the role of strong societal ties in reducing recidivism, advocating for sustained social connection support for former convicts. Simultaneously, the exploration of Labeling Theory and Stigmatization Theory sheds light on the societal stigmatization ex-offenders endure, leading to self-fulfilling prophecies and prolonged social exclusion. In summary, this study suggests a holistic approach to reintegration that concurrently addresses individual psychological needs and systemic societal biases. This integrated approach is crucial for the successful re-entry and societal inclusion of ex-convicts, underscoring the need for policy and societal changes.
