Abstract
While a wide range of literature exists on the topic of prisoner resettlement, little is known about the struggles faced by foreign national prisoners who return to their home country after serving a prison sentence aboard. This paper aims to address this gap in the literature by providing a comparative analysis of two reports which have examined this phenomenon in Ireland and in the UK. While concerns over accommodation, healthcare, addiction, employment, education and family contact are common to all prisoners, foreign national prisoners also face concerns related to language, culture and immigration and deportation. These additional concerns can have a dramatic impact on the resettlement of those foreign national prisoners who return to their home country post-release.
