Electronic Monitoring: A Boon for Corrections? This 11-page, 6-source paper studies the development of electronic monitoring (EM) and its implications for the corrections community. EM is a using a transmitter, usually in the form of a wrist or ankle strap, to monitor parolees or prisoners electronically instead of traditional bricks-and-mortar prisons. The author first defines EM and how it developed in the 1960s, then how it re-emerged again in the early 1980s when prison overcrowding became a serious issue. Although cost effective, the limitations of the technology are discussed, including the constitutional issues involved and the belief by some that the technology has Orwellian invasion of privacy overtones. While the technology hasn't quite caught on in the United States, the author points to a program in Europe which has been successful, and in the last section of the paper, provides an overview of new technology enhancing EM, such as satellite tracking and implants. Font style and Chicago documentation are per the professor's guidelines. 11 pgs. Bibliography lists 6 sources.
