| Sumario: | The article focuses on relations between the public space, the convicts and the prison institution, within the private/public boundaries are continually negotiated. The prison's qualification as a "total institution" is increasingly discussed, since its growing opening to the outside can be observed and democratization process allow prisoners¿ access to global information and even their freedom of expression.

Detention conditions' normalization makes sentences looking like games (the "reality-tv" ones) and it is increasingly difficult to distinguish inside from outside, because of the latter is invaded by video surveillance and virtual phenomenons. Penalty evolutions resulte in revolution of and in convicts' private space. |
