Challenges in the Resocialization of Non-German Prisoners in Germany
Nearly half of the inmates in Germany lack German citizenship, complicating their resocialization efforts.
According to Fatina Keilani, the primary obstacle to effective resocialization is the language barrier, as many of these individuals do not speak German. This linguistic challenge significantly hinders their integration into society post-incarceration, raising concerns about the effectiveness of current rehabilitation programs aimed at this demographic.
