Die Sanktionierung unbotm?igen Patientenverhaltens

["The Sanctioning of Insubordinate Patient Behaviour. Disciplinary Aspects of the Execution of Psychiatric Disciplinary Actions"]
How should a psychiatric hospital react to rule infringements by its residents, and specifically to any infringements of standards, which restrict the orderly procedures of the hospital and make the communal living of the patients more difficult? The legislators from the different Federal State Legislatures have decided not to plan for an explicit disciplinary law concerning the execution of prison rules for improvement and security.

This work examines the question of whether a codified disciplinary law is preferable. It seeks an answer to this question, not only through a legally dogmatic examination of the subject but also through sociological analyses, its own empirical investigations and through legally comparable considerations of the execution of the regulations in the Netherlands. This creates a multi-layered picture of the problem of the legal control of society under the conditions of state imprisonment.
