Norwegian prisons are nicer than my apartment.
holy shit dude
I was really shocked by this and dubious, so I decided to read further. There’s a great article about this here: http://www.bbc.com/news/magazine-35813470As it turns out, this is more like a halfway house. Prisoners usually begin their term in a prison more like one we’d typically recognize - bars on the windows, locked in their cells. But the emphasis there is on successful reintegration into society. As their sentence progresses, with good behavior, they can move into a facility more like this, where their freedoms are still restricted, but they can do things like network with people outside of prison, search for employment, cook and clean and look after themselves, and begin making plans for their reintegration into society. As a result, Norway has one of the lowest rates of recidisvism. 20% as opposed to America’s 76%. It seems like a shocking idea to us because of where and how we live, but apparently, Norwegians are addressing the real problem. When you take people who can’t function well in society, and then…help them do that?…they….do. Without the crime-ing.
Turns out treating people like human beings makes them more likely to act like human beings….
American prisons really drop the fucking ball on rehabilitation.
20%. That’s how low you can apparently get the rate of repeat offenders. Out of every five criminals, four will become functional, productive members of society if you just treat them like people and give them a chance.
And I usually try not to attribute to malice anything which can be explained by incompetence, but it’s been going on so long with so many better examples to learn from that I have to assume that american prisons are intentionally increasing recidivism, probably because the people who run the prisons get more money from the government when they’re at max capacity than when they have empty cells.

why isn’t anyone allowed to be wrong anymore? it’s okay to be wrong. no one should be terrified of every tiny little mistake they might make. being wrong, and realizing you were wrong, is how you learn and grow and change.
