Abstract:	Večino zaporske populacije v vseh državah predstavljajo moški, vendar se število zaprtih žensk v zadnjem obdobju viša hitreje kot pri moških. Ženske so v zaporskih sistemih obravnavane drugače, kar izhaja iz razlik v demografiji, resnosti storjenega kaznivega dejanja ter prepričanja, da so bolj dojemljive za rehabilitacijo. Kljub temu, da so pred zakonom v večini demokratičnih držav obravnavane enako kot moški, pa imajo specifične zdravstvene, higienske in psihološke potrebe, pogosto so bile žrtve zlorab ali pa trpijo zaradi odvisnosti. Posledično morajo zapori zagotavljati ustrezne terapevtske programe za zapornice. Zaključno delo se osredotoča na primerjavo ženskih zaporov v Združenih državah Amerike (ZDA), Kanadi, na Japonskem in Novi Zelandiji. Med izbranimi državami obstajajo razlike v prostorskih razmerah, samih pogojih za prestajanje kazni, kot tudi obravnavi zapornic. Vse države se soočajo s prezasedenostjo zaporov, slabimi pogoji za zapornice ter omejenim dostopom do tretmajskih programov, čeprav je rehabilitacija prepoznana kot ključen dejavnik za zmanjšanje povratništva. ZDA izstopa po neprimernih pogojih za zapornice, omejenih rehabilitacijskih možnostih in izrazitih rasnih neenakostih. Kanada večji poudarek daje na rehabilitacijo in pravice zapornic, vendar ostajajo izzivi pri obravnavi domorodnih žensk. Nova Zelandija vključuje kulturno občutljive pristope, vendar se sooča s sistemskim rasizmom, saj Maorke predstavljajo nesorazmerno visok delež zaporske populacije. Na Japonskem je poudarek na reintegraciji, a omejen dostop do oskrbe in močna socialna stigma otežujeta vrnitev zapornic v družbo. V zaključku izpostavljamo nujnost reform, ki bi ženskam v zaporih omogočile bolj humano in celostno obravnavo, izboljšanje življenjskih pogojev, dostop do zdravstvene oskrbe in tretmajskih programov s ciljem uspešne reintegracije in zmanjšanja povratništva.

Title:	Prisons for women: a comparison of selected countries (USA, Canada, Japan and New Zealand)
Abstract:	The majority of the prison population in all countries is male; however, the number of incarcerated women has been increasing faster than that of men in recent years. Women are treated differently within prison systems due to differences in demographics, the severity of crimes committed, and the belief that they are more receptive to rehabilitation. Although women are treated equally under the law in most democratic countries, they have specific health, hygiene, and psychological needs. Many have been victims of abuse or suffer from addiction. As a result, prisons must provide adequate therapeutic programs for female inmates. This thesis focuses on comparing women’s prisons in the United States, Canada, Japan, and New Zealand. Among the selected countries, there are differences in spatial conditions, living environments, and the treatment of female inmates. All the countries face challenges with prison overcrowding, poor conditions for female prisoners, and limited access to rehabilitation programs, despite recognizing rehabilitation as a key factor in reducing recidivism. The United States stands out for its inadequate conditions for female inmates, limited rehabilitation opportunities, and pronounced racial inequalities. Canada places greater emphasis on rehabilitation and the rights of female prisoners but still struggles with addressing the needs of Indigenous women. New Zealand incorporates culturally sensitive approaches but faces systemic racism, as Māori women account for a disproportionately high share of the prison population. Japan focuses on reintegration, yet limited access to care and strong social stigma hinder the successful return of female inmates to society. This thesis highlights the need for reforms that would enable more humane and comprehensive treatment of women in prisons, including improved living conditions, access to healthcare, and rehabilitation programs, with the aim of successful reintegration and reduced recidivism.
