Abstract

This paper explores the development of community corrections in China, focusing on the role of social work within different models of practice. Despite ongoing debates over the punitive versus welfare nature of community corrections, the paper highlights the shift towards a welfare-oriented approach. It identifies three main models of community corrections in China—Beijing, Shanghai, and Guangzhou—each incorporating social work to varying degrees. The findings suggest that social work is increasingly recognized as a crucial component in promoting rehabilitation and reintegration within the community corrections system.
