A working definition of “rehabilitation” is needed in order to perform an analysis, though even a few definitions evidence how differently the word can be interpreted. The British Humanist Association, in discussing rehabilitation, comments whether we should “be reforming and educating criminals, so that they have something better to do with their lives and no longer want to commit crimes?”.
