Description

This video recording introduces the viewer to an example of a local correctional institution in Sweden that exemplified those that were set up in response to a 1974 law requiring a more humanizing experience for inmates sentenced to one year or less. The small facility (40 inmates, 50 staff) encouraged self-sufficiency, learning new skills, and communication with the outside world.
