The Professor Genowefa Rejman European Centre for Penological Studies and the Institute of Social Prevention and Resocialization have pleasure in inviting you to a conference on Changing Penologies and European Crime Policy: Theory and Practice in the Global Context, which will take place on 20th–21st of October, 2022, at the University of Warsaw. The Conference will be opened in the main Building of the Library of University of Warsaw.


We cordially invite you to participate in the Conference on “Changing Penologies and European Crime Policy: Theory and Practice in the Global Context” which is related to the celebration of the 15th Anniversary of the Professor Genowefa Rejman European Center for Penological Studies, and of the 50th Anniversary of the Institute of Social Prevention and Rehabilitation, at the University of Warsaw and in the official inauguration of the editorial series penology.org established by Warsaw University Press with the prof. G. Rejman European Centre for Penological Studies. We especially welcome those Colleagues dealing with issues of penology, crime policy, criminal law and criminology.
The aim of the planned conference is to discuss, both the general assumptions of European penology and its further progress. Questions of current problems and solving them in the light of European criminal policy, as well as in the global context, will also be addressed including those which are directly linked with crime and large social migrations.
The conference will tend to give not only an impulse for the debate among representatives of criminology, penology and criminal law, but also ought to engage representatives of other disciplines, in particular sociologists and anthropologists.
In accordance with the scientific programme of the European Centre for Penological Studies, future discussion on criminal policy should take place in the broader context of general social knowledge, this is why we encourage also representatives of sociology (sociology of law), resocialization (probation and penitentiary issues), and also social work (in the justice system) to take active part in the conference.
Those who would like to participate actively in the conference, should send the title and abstract of their proposed papers by the deadline of 31st of July 2022.
