One should know that he has committed a wrong that is why correction is necessary. If one is not informed about his mistakes, he will not know anything about social responsibility. The tendency is that he will live without any regard to the welfare of other people. One key word associated with this is discipline.
There has been a consistent rise to the number of crimes committed nowadays. There seem to be less people who knows about what is right and what is wrong. Because of this situation, more and more individuals are sent to the prison. Normally, one would think of this place as a torture. But it is actually more than that. It is set to correct wrong behaviors too. One of the aspects that will help carry out that goal is the prison design.
This design actually plays an important role. It provides a better avenue for the detainees to realize their mistakes. It is not cozy or comfortable, but it should definitely not look like an animal cage. Before, jails are designed in a different way. Its goal is to make the detainees regulate their behavior.
During the earlier years, the structure of prisons is that of a circular building that has a central tower. The guard is situated at the center of all the corridors in order to see all the cells. Also, the place where they are, is not lighted in order for the prisoners not to see them.
Because of this, they will try not to do things that will further make them suffer in jail. As time pass, they will be able to adapt to their practice of discipline. This will also put them in a spot until they are able to learn how to control their actions. When the time for them to be release comes, they will finally be able to adhere to the social norms and responsibilities.
Throughout the years, the concept of torture in prisons has been opposed. This is to prevent the detainees from acting rebellious and to give them the chance to change their ways in a more humane way. But since prison has been more perceived as a place of punishment or torture, it has been unsuccessful in carrying out its duties of correcting the wrong ways of people.
Seeing this, architects are called to produce a new design that is fit to be called a worthy prison. It should be a structure that will provide a place for realization, and not torture. Basically, it should be fit for a human being, and not an animal. These people still deserve respect. According to Beccaria, a punishment to be just should only have that degree of severity which is sufficient to deter others.
With this, a proposal made recently, embodied the ideals of rehabilitation. It provides the prisoners with the chance to interact with criminal case students. Aside from that, they are educated as well as to why they have been put in such a place. This promotes a healthier atmosphere of morality and will likely better the condition of the prison.
Prisoners are also people. They understand and they have emotions too. If only they are well handled and educated with the right things to do, they will certainly improve. This is what an effective structure can do. But design does not have all the say, the system in running the jail should go together.
