Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Imaginative Programming in Probation and Parole was first published in 1967.Here and there imaginative and progressive administrators in the corrections field are trying out new techniques in their probation and parole programs, techniques which represent departures from conventionally accepted methods. In this book Paul W. Keve, an authority on probation and parole, reports on a number of these innovative programs, citing examples from all parts of the country. The focus of the book is on field services rather than on services in penal institutions although, as the author points out, the clear line between the two is becoming blurred with the development of various residential programs that contain elements of both.Mr. Keve personally observed most of the programs he describes. He documents the account with actual cases in which only the names of the offenders are disguised. He discusses both casework and group work methods, and considers with equal concern the problems of juvenile and adult probationers and parolees. Along with the descriptions of the programs he provides thoughtful discussions of the basic principles involved. There are separate chapters on certain kinds of problems, such as narcotics addicts on probation or parole, and on some specific types of programs, such as halfway houses.The book will be helpful and challenging not only to probation and parole administrators and their staffs but also to judges, lawyers, social workers, and others concerned with various aspects of probation and parole.

Book excerpt: The Probation Officer Investigates was first published in 1960.Paul W. Keve is an outstanding practitioner in the field of probation and parole. From his own experience and observation, he has prepared this guide to help others in an important aspect of their work. He points out: "Each probation officer makes his own contribution to the public's eventual acceptance of a constructive penal philosophy by the high quality of his daily work. If that work is to be truly and consistently rehabilitative, it must be based upon sound diagnosis of each case, and this, of course, is the concern of this book."A major task of probation officers is to investigate offenders before their courts and then to write comprehensive and analytical reports about the offenders, for the use of the court. In this book, Mr. Keve explains the philosophy of the preparation of pre-sentence reports and discusses in specific detail the techniques of preparing these reports in a significant, diagnostic way. He considers the problems of confidentiality, relationships with attorneys, techniques of interviewing, and style and format in the writing of the report. He proposes a form for a standard report, and discusses, separately, each category of material to be included. He reproduces two examples of actual (but disguised) reports in an appendix.The book will be particularly helpful to new probation officers. It will be useful, also, to the more experienced staff members, for inservice training programs, and in academic courses in the correctional field. For judges and attorneys, it provides insight into the philosophy and purposes of the probation report.

Book excerpt: Much has been written and published about the pressing problems of prison reform, but this book differs from most of the others because it goes more deeply to the heart of the question. The author speaks with the authority of years of experience in the corrections field, yet his analysis and proposals are not only those of an outstanding professional but those of a deeply committed humanist as well. Mr. Keve provides a balanced picture of prison problems, showing in understandable terms what happens to both inmates and staff when they are confined together in a traditional prison. He points out that problems of management, communication, and staff training are especially acute in a typical prison, demonstrating, with examples, the reasons why severe stress and recurring disturbances will always be part of the prison experience as long as the present large security institutions are maintained. He gives special attention to the effects on prison life of parole board decisions, and of recent relevant court decisions. He also discusses the particular problems of women's institutions. The author concludes that because of increased awareness by both courts and prison inmates of prisoner rights, the time is coming shortly when our prisons will be considered virtually inoperable, and new alternatives will have to be developed. He devotes a full chapter to consideration of fifteen concepts or suggestions that could lead to improvement of prisons. In a final chapter he discusses the kinds of programs he thinks must be developed as alternative resources to replace prison sentences for most offenders.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In tracing the evolution of federal imprisonment, Paul W. Keve emphasizes the ways in which corrections history has been affected by and is reflective of other trends in the political and cultural life of the United States. The federal penal system has undergone substantial evolution over two hundred years. Keve divides this evolutionary process into three phases. During the first phase, from 1776 through the end of the nineteenth century, no federal prisons existed in the United States. Federal prisoners were simply boarded in state or local facilities. It was in the second phase, starting with the passage of the Three Prison Act by Congress in 1891, that federal facilities were constructed at Leavenworth and Atlanta, while the old territorial prison at McNeil Island in Washington eventually became, in effect, the third prison. In this second phase, the federal government began the enormous task of providing its own prison cells. Still, there was no effective supervisory force to make a prison system. In 1930, the Federal Bureau of Prisons was created, marking the third phase of the prison system’s evolution. The Bureau, in its first sixty years of existence, introduced numerous correctional innovations, thereby building an effective, centrally controlled prison system with progressive standards. Keve details the essential characteristics of this now mature system, guiding the reader through the historical process to the present day.
