Abstract

Viktimizacija je učestala pojava u svakodnevnom životu većine ljudi, iznimno složena po pitanju
oblika, karakteristika okruženja u kojima se pojavljuje i odvija, kao i karakteristika žrtava te
počinitelja. Posljedice viktimizacije su brojne i međusobno isprepletene. Niz fizičkih, psihičkih,
socijalnih, ekonomskih, kulturoloških i drugih posljedica stradanja u svojoj krajnosti mogu dovesti
do samoubojstva, kao posljednjeg odabira u nošenju sa stradanjem, konačnog stradanja. Jedno od
visoko rizičnih okruženja za viktimizaciju i samoubojstvo je zatvorsko okruženje, prostor
specifičan u svojoj društvenoj strukturi i dinamici.
Cilj ovog rada je stjecanje uvida o pojavnost samoubojstva zatvorenika u zatvorskim sustavima u
svijetu te njihovu povezanost s karakteristikama okruženja, žrtava i međuljudskih odnosa kroz
pregled postojeće literature. Cilj je također prikupiti relevantne spoznaje o programima u
zatvorskim sustavima povezanim s problemom samoubojstava. U tu svrhu, analizirati će se
povezanost samoubojstava i klasifikacije zatvorenika te karakteristika penalnih ustanova i uvjeta
života u njima, osobina zatvorenika, njihove međusobne interakcije, kao i interakcije zatvorenika
s penalnim osobljem te druge značajne poveznice opisane u dosadašnjim znanstvenom studijama
objavljenim na hrvatskom i engleskom jeziku. Također će se analizirati postupci i programi
podrške za osuđene osobe, ali i osoblje penalnih ustanova u svrhu prevencije ili krizne intervencije
nakon događaja.

Abstract (english)

Victimization is a common occurrence in the everyday lives of most people, an exceptionally
complex one in terms of its form, the characteristics of the environment it occurs in, as well as the
characteristics of both the victims and the culprits. The consequences of victimization are many
and are mutually intertwined. A series of physical, psychological, social, economic, cultural and
other consequences of being a victim can, ultimately, lead to suicide, as a final option in dealing
with being affected. One of the high-risk environments for victimtion and suicide is prison, a
specific environment in its social structure and dynamic.
The goal of this thesis is gaining insight into prisoner suicide occurrences in prison systems around
the World and their correlation with the characteristics of the environment, the victims themselves
and interhuman relations through an overview of already existing literature. The goal is to also
gather relevant insight into the programmes of prison systems related to the issue of suicide. To
do this, this thesis will analyse the correlation of suicides and prisoner classifications, along with
the characteristics of penal establishments and quality of life within them, the personalities of the
prisoners, their interactions, both with other prisoners and prison staff, and other significant factors
described in the available scientific studies conducted in the Croatian and English language.
Available procedures and support systems with the goal of prevention or crisis intervention will
also be examined for both convicts and penal establishment staff alike.
