How does the fact that we live in information societies reflect on the nature of penal discourse and practice? Applying media and communication studies to sentencing and penal culture, Franko Aas offers a lucid and innovative account of how punishment is adjusting to a new cultural climate marked by growing demands for information processing, transparency and accountability. The book explores a number of recent penal developments, such as risk assessment instruments, sentencing guidelines and computerised sentencing information systems, and argues that they are instruments of justice with so-called Macintosh traits, offering pre-programmed answers and solutions. The book addresses a number of compelling questions such as: Is sentencing - or any other penal profession - art or science, and can it be made programmable? Why do offenders increasingly receive standardised rather than individualised responses from the penal system? The book touches upon issues of decision-making at-a-distance, exercise of discretion, databases, disembodiment and the changing nature of subjectivity. The author explores information technology as a cultural environment with profound implications for the nature of penal knowledge, governance and identity constitution.

Das Werk widmet sich dem (Privat-)Wohnungseinbruchdiebstahl nach § 244 Abs. 1 Nr. 3, Abs. 4 StGB. Ein besonderer Schwerpunkt liegt auf der Rechtswirklichkeit der Strafzumessung bei dem Delikt. Auf Grundlage einer multiperspektivischen Betrachtung der Erscheinungsformen des Phänomens und seiner rechtlichen Bewertung untersucht die Arbeit die Reform des Tatbestandes und die Praxis der tatgerichtlichen Strafzumessung bei dem Delikt. Insbesondere werden Unterschiede im Strafmaß, die nicht hinreichend durch Sachverhaltsunterschiede der zugrundeliegenden Fälle erklärt werden können, sowie Defizite in der Begründung der Strafzumessungsentscheidungen aufgezeigt. Die Arbeit legt einen Handlungsbedarf im Strafzumessungsrecht offen. This study addresses the phenomenon of domestic burglary (§ 244 (1) No. 3, (4) German Criminal Code). Particular emphasis is placed on the realities of criminal sentencing for this offense. Based on a multi-perspective analysis of the various appearances of the phenomenon and its legal classification, the study examines the reform of § 244 GCC and the realities of sentencing in criminal courts for the offense. In particular, discrepancies in sentencing that cannot be adequately explained by differences in factual circumstances of the underlying cases, and deficits in the written reasons for sentencing decisions are highlighted. The study reveals a need for action in the field of criminal sentencing.
