Well, Europe is definitely more progressive. There’s this book, Incarceration Nation, where a US researchers visits prisons in other countries that are using innovative forms of rehabilitation. There’s a program, for example, in Italy that reduces your sentence by a certain amount of time based on every book that you read (i.e. educating yourself is seen as an action that will significantly decrease your future potential to act out another crime). It’s pretty interesting how other countries are trying other methods...that work!
