Rezumat

Perspectiva criminologică, psihosocială și educațională asupra persoanei care comite acte de agresivitate, inclusiv abuzuri sexuale, se bazează pe mai multe modele teoretice de intervenție, care sunt incluse în abordările bio-patologice, psihologice și socioculturale. Aceasta este premisa de la care pornește desistarea asistată, ca o succesiune de etape dezvoltate în cadrul procesului penal avand managementul riscului, ca principiu fundamental aplicat în sistemul custodial și de probațiune. În primul rând, acest articol pleacă de la un studiu de caz realizat în sistemul românesc de probațiune, care a fost prezentat la cea de-a V-a conferință internațională intitulată „Perspective Multidisciplinare în Tratamentul Quasi-Coercitiv al Delincvenților. Probațiunea ca domeniu de studiu și cercetare: De la persoană la societate” (2016). În al doilea rând, prezentul articol reflectă colaborarea dintre penitenciar și probațiune, în cadrul desistării primare și secundare folosind programul „Reducerea riscului de recidivă” (RRR) după închisoare, care se bazează pe complementaritatea modelului „risc, nevoi și responsivitate” (RNR), cu „Modelul unei vieți mai bune” (GLM), prin combinarea principiului formării responsabilității individuale, cu cel al responsabilității sociale. În acest sens, argumentele noastre evidențiază importanța individualizării executării sentinței, care trebuie să fie centrată pe identitatea narativă contextualizată, din perspectiva desistării secundare, în vederea asigurării continuității în reabilitarea post-condamnatorie și protecția victimei infracțiunii.
