Abstract

The study comprised in this paper aimed at identifying the way the freedom-deprived people are perceived when they try to reenter society after their liberation. The research covered a number of 60 subjects and based on this study we found out the terms under which the vast majority of freedom-deprived people want to reintegrate in society, as well as the labor market, by all means. The outcome of the study proves that when the ex-convicts do not face issues after their liberation and are not discriminated against on the labor market, the chances for their reinsertion and the shortness of time in which they are able to find a workplace increase, whereas in the situations when the employers refuse to deal with ex-convicts, the introduction of a supervising program carried out by a specialized unit is advisable. In the end, all the hypotheses we started from were confirmed by means of applying questionnaires to the subjects.

The most important conclusion drawn based on the analysis of the hypotheses is that freedom-deprived people want to step over the threshold of social development.
