Abstract

Rehabilitation and reintegration are underlying challenges for all European prison systems. For this rea-son, the supranational legislation concerning the promotion and implementation of these principles is composed of numerous ad hoc instruments, closely related to human rights legislation. This contribution, with the aim of answering an essential question such as: “why some offender stops?” takes into consi-deration the main factors that, at a global level, are recognized as obstacles to the achievement of the pursued objective as well as the elements that, instead, can act as a positive push factors. A summary of the most widespread positions in the academic and practical field on the mentioned concepts is also offered, in order to facilitate the understanding of the state of the art at European level.
