NATIONAL AND INTERNATIONAL SECURITY

The motivation for escaping from prisons

  • 1 Academy of the Ministry of Interior, Sofia, Bulgaria

Abstract

The leading motives for perpetrators’ escapes are self-affirmation, self-preservation, identification, increase of self-esteem, achievement of retribution and justice. The precise psychological analysis of the motives for the escapes favours their forecasting, timely crossing and termination. The sustainable motives for the realization of escapes are connected with serious conspiratorial activity. Situational motives for escape are inherent in impulsive and primary personalities.
