Abstract: The book presents an overview of the criminal sanctions’ system
according to the Greek Penal Code. Apart from the scope of sanctioning it
highlights the main axes of the dual system of penalties and security/thera-
peutic measures, it analyses institutions that can reform the legislative penalty
framework, e.g. recidivism and mitigating factors, it discusses the sentencing
guidelines and presents also the central institutions for the implementation
of sanctions (i.e. early release on probation or house arrest under electronic
surveillance). The analysis of the book is supported by the main modern juris-
prudence of the criminal courts on the relevant subjects.
