TLDR
The authors explored legal and practical aspects of parole revocation in Slovenia, the role of the judiciary, the attitudes to revocation of the parole shaped by Slovenia's legal culture, and possible reasons for the rarity of parole being revoked in Slovenian penal practice.Abstract:
While many EU countries are seeing an increase in the number of prisoners being recalled to prison from release on parole, Slovenia presents an exception: although the Slovenian system does legislate for revoking parole the measure is hardly ever used in practice. This article explores legal and practical aspects of parole revocation in Slovenia, the role of the judiciary, the attitudes to revocation of the parole shaped by Slovenia's legal culture, and possible reasons for the rarity of parole being revoked in Slovenian penal practice.read more

Using vignette methodology to research the process of breach comparatively
TL;DR: In this article, a vignette methodology was developed to explore the decision-making aspect of the breach process from a comparative perspective across a number of different European jurisdictions, and the vignettes were designed to explore two different types of breach processes: the process of breach that follows on from a breach of conditions of early release from prison and the process that follows a breach attached to the completion of an unpaid work order.
