| Sumario: | This article gives a literature review on execution of female sentences, with special reference to community sentences. For this purpose, an exhaustive search of Spanish and English literature has been carried out. After this systematized research, a field of emerging criminological analysis has been identified. It responds to the question "what works with women offenders” and bets for the introduction of the "gender-responsive approach” in the criminal justice system. After this theoretical review, it has been deduced that in Spain there are few studies that have been concerned about the situation of women in the criminal execution process and those that we can find are about prison. The discriminatory situation of women prisoners, internationally recognized, has shown the need to reduce the number of these through alternative criminal sentences. Therefore, this article explores two key issues: a) the reasons why the majority literature promotes the use of these community sentences for the women and b) the situation of women offenders in community and those interventions that have been shown to work better with the women offenders, especially in the Anglo-Saxon area, where there is a majority literature on this field of study. This is the theoretical framework of an ongoing empirical research that aims to study the women offenders in community from a feminist perspective in our jurisdiction |
