Działalność kuratorów sądowych – rozważania w zakresie ustawodawstwa i praktyki

In recent years interest in the functioning of the judicial guardianship departments has been growing. This initiated the need to study all dimensions of guardians' work. Guardianship as a specific measure of reclamation aimed at the transformation of wards' behaviours, is facing new challenges which are the result of the changes in our country. At present a guardian as a person executing the court judgement largely takes the blame for his/her own initiatives and omissions, but also for the court which issued the verdict as well as general social or economic conditions in the country. The objective of this work is to present the results of the questioning conducted by the Office of the Human Rights Defender and the Institute of Justice in relation to the reported Guardians targets. Particular attention, on the background of the whole of the institution presented, has been attributed to the meaning of media which through prudent conducting of probation promotion should form the basis for a rational assessment of the social work of the guardians.
