Tutkimuksen tarkoituksena oli selvittää, kuinka New Public Management (NPM) on vaikuttanut Rikosseuraamuslaitoksen ja sen edeltäjän, Rikosseuraamusviraston, toimintatapaan vuosina 2001–2019. Tutkimuksen aineistona oli Rikosseuraamusviraston ja Rikosseuraamuslaitoksen vuosiraportointi, josta valittiin tutkimukseen vuosiraportit vuosilta 2001–2019. Tutkimuksessa käytettiin diskurssianalyyttista lähestymistapaa tulkittaessa vuosiraporteissa tärkeinä pidettyjä asioita. Aineiston rajaus edustaa ajanjaksoa, jolloin Rikosseuraamusvirasto ja Rikosseuraamuslaitos kävivät läpi suuria muutoksia organisaatiorakenteissaan. Johtopäätöksenä voidaan todeta, että NPM on vaikuttanut huomattavasti Rikosseuraamuslaitoksen nykyiseen organisaatiomalliin ja toiminnan painopisteisiin. NPM on pakottanut rikosseuraamukset keskittymään niiden päätehtävään ja suoriutumaan hyvin niiden implementoinnissa. Seurauksena on ollut siirtymä kohti aiempaa avoimempia ja taloudellisesti edullisimpia rangaistuksia. Nämä rangaistukset tukevat pohjoismaisen maltillisen kriminaalipolitiikan tavoitteita pyrkimällä uusintarikollisuuden vähentämiseen. ...
 
The purpose of the study is to examine how New Public Management (NPM) impacted Finnish criminal sanctions during the years 2001–2019. For this qualitative examination, the monitoring and evaluation documents of the Finnish Criminal Sanctions Agency were analysed by the method of discourse analysis. The analysis period represents the time when Finnish criminal sanctions went through substantial changes in the organisational structure. From the sample it can be observed that NPM has significantly impacted the structure and implementation of criminal sanctions in Finland. It can be seen that the efficiency drive of NPM has forced criminal sanctions to bring an increased focus on its core functions and perform well in their implementation. From the results it can be concluded that the biggest epitome of NPM in Finnish criminal sanctions has been bringing greater emphasis on cost- efficient open sanctions, which also support the goals of Nordic moderate criminal policy by promoting the reduction of recidivism. ...
