Confination
The confectionary nation or Konfinierung (of lat. Confinium = border, the border area) refers to a form of banishment .
term
In the medieval penal system, confinement represented a term of imprisonment in which the convicted person was forbidden to leave a certain place or district without actually being held in prison. The confined person was assigned a mostly narrowly defined location for a certain period of time. Often, he was also subject to further requirements or prohibitions (e.g. professional ban). The local police monitored their whereabouts and behavior.
The confination was often used in fascist Italy . Administratively, a distinction was made between confino comune and confino politico .
It also existed in German and Austrian criminal law. In Germany it was replaced by police supervision before 1871. During the First and Second World Wars, there were recourse to confination or confinement in German and Austrian legal texts and in criminal law practice. In October 1914 and the beginning of 1915, for example, "confinement stations" were set up in the Austrian internment camps in Karlstein an der Thaya and Drosendorf .
In Anglo-Saxon penal systems, the concept is still the name of solitary confinement in use, with the confi nation but just does not coincide.
Consolidation in Austrian asylum law
In Austrian law, the confinement describes the restriction of freedom of movement through simple legal provisions. As such, it applies in the applicable asylum law for the purpose of "securing rejection" ("A stranger who has been brought before an initial reception center at the airport can, if and for as long as entry is not permitted, be behaved to secure rejection to stay at a certain location in the border control area or in the area of this initial reception center [...]; he may leave at any time "(Section 32 (1) Asylum Act of 2005).
Canon Law
The confinement is a church punishment regulated in the Codex Iuris Canonici (CIC) , which can be imposed on clerics and religious . It consists in the prohibition to stay in a certain place or area or a residence requirement for a certain place or a certain area (Chapter II Expiatory Punishments Can. 1337).
Confination in literary texts
Carlo Levi gives an autobiographical description of the way people were confined in southern Italy in the mid-1930s in the book " Christ only came to Eboli " (1945).
