Sažetak
The Croatian Probation Service was established in 2011. In 2013 it began with execution of probation—related tasks in terms of execution of prison sentences and conditional release. Since then, the number of such cases has continuously increased. Nowadays, they account for half of all the incoming cases on an annual basis. The increased caseload and higher involvement of the probation service during the enforcement of prison sentences and conditional releases points to the need for closer cooperation between the probation and prison services. Effective cooperation between probation and prison services is considered necessary for purposeful enforcement of prison sentences and probation tasks at the European level. Within the framework of the rehabilitative approach, certain limitations have been found in terms of the existing cooperation. At the same time, some modalities proved to be more effective or promising have been emphasized. This paper presents an analysis of the cooperation development between probation and prison services in our country compared to the current situation in Europe, with closing remarks indicating the need for further development of this cooperation whereby the best European practices should serve as a role model.
