Are Høidal is a graduate in law from the University of Oslo in 1987. When taking on the challenge of establishing Halden prison, Mr Høidal used his competence and values to build a correctional organization where rehabilitation within a safe and secure environment was the main focus. Together with a dedicated staff, Mr Høidal has established Halden prison as a beacon in the correctional community, achieving a substantial and continuous interest and respect from a wide range of stakeholders from governments, public service, academics, media and NGOs from around the world. Mr Høidal is widely used as a speaker and lecturer in the global community of correctional service. He has held presentations at numerous seminars, forums, expert meetings, and universities around the world and is deeply motivated to share his vision and goal of a humane and effective treatment of inmates. With his 37 years from the practitioner field, he speaks with great credibility about how to combine safety and rehabilitation in the best possible way.

Rezensionen
"Nina Hanssen and Are Høidal have written a unique book about the well recognized and highly succesful Norwegian correctional services. Unlike almost any other such institution worldwide the Norwegians have managed to implement workable solutions in this field, resulting in positive outcomes otherwise unheard of globally. They have proven that it actually works to try to correct crimnals - rather than just punishing them. The book covers perspectives from both inmates and employees and it will be able to motivate both leaders and employees in the field as well as anybody else who is interested in correctional services. I can highly recommend this very interesting and relevant book".
Frans Ørsted Andersen, Associate Professor, Aarhus University, Denmark

"This has become a very central and necessary book. It shows how important it is both for society as a whole and for many individuals that we stick to a humane prison system."

'[This] book is so much more than just about prisons and imprisonment; it's about social justice and the political will to change the way a country might look at offending and its real causes."
