The impact of globalization discourse on the modern sociology of penitentiary prevention management

In the present research the author considers the development of views of modern sociologists on general theoretical issues of globalization in the context of management sociology. The author extrapolates the globalization discourse to the sociology of penitentiary prevention management. Based on the conducted analysis, the author comes to the conclusion that the features of the domestic penal system, based on the value-rational basis of its previous experience, as well as informal traditions and customs, present a natural reaction to the total nature of global universalization. The modern system of penitentiary prevention management is based on the principle of preserving one’s identity within certain (purely penitentiary) socio-cultural boundaries (representations). Fragmentation and individualization of social life (both of penitentiary social medium and of certain individuals) as a compensatory reaction determines the manifestation of patterns of solidary behavior in the system of penitentiary prevention management.
