Università Roma Tre

Aiming to offer a reading of prison law in light of the Constitution, the course will be structured according to the following program:
- analysis of the constitutional dictate placed to protect persons deprived of their liberty;
- analysis of the relevant penitentiary legislation as an expression of the constitutional dictate;
- analysis of the main jurisprudential pronouncements, national and supranational, on the subject;
- analysis of the rights of persons deprived of their liberty (health, work, affectivity, education, religion, not to be subjected to torture, to have a space in accordance with dignity etc.);
- analysis of the main instruments of protection placed to guarantee persons deprived of their liberty both jurisdictional and extrajudicial;
- simulations of legal cases to be solved.

In order to foster direct contact between students and the prison context, discussions with operators and visits to prison institutions are organized.
