Influencing Rehabilitation: The Contribution Of Positive School Of Law To Offender Rehabilitation Programs




Siddharth Garg


ABSTRACT


This paper discusses the powerful contribution of the Positive School of Law to crime and offender rehabilitation program development and improvement. Based on the underlying tenets of positivism, which supports the use of empirical methodologies for the study and treatment of criminal behaviour, this essay discusses how the Positive School's focus on empirical data and social intervention informs current offender rehabilitation philosophies.


In addition, the research explores the application of positivist principles to modern legal and criminal justice systems with particular focus on the requirement for an adaptive and responsive response to offender rehabilitation. Case studies and empirical data from current rehabilitation schemes will be used to demonstrate the practical operation of positivist principles in rehabilitation processes.
