Comparative Study of Reformation Strategies Outside of Iranian and Canadian Criminal Environments

Reformation strategies might be categorized into three levels in terms of the stage of its performance topic. In the stage of outside of criminal environment, the three strategies of supporting the set free prisoner, developing the community-oriented punishments and oversight and controlling and practicing function. The existing examples in Canada indicate the local, intellectual, and religiousoriented nature of support strategy; the rule-oriented nature of the development of community-oriented punishments strategy; and the comprehensive and purposeful nature of oversight control and practice strategy. In other words, the existence of a strategic discipline is apparent in this system. As for that of Iran, though the strategy of developing community-oriented punishments has currently been advocated, the necessary conditions to practice them are not available and therefore, its failure is not a surprise. Besides, the strategy of support has not welcome in practice. Regarding the oversight, control, and practice strategy, notwithstanding various organizations, effective and purposeful elements have been ignored by law makers. In general, with regard to evaluating the Iranian reformation strategies, strategic pretence is its salient feature.
