description This paper focuses on the «prisoner-entrepreneur» as an agent in the governance relations in a men's prison in Montevideo, Uruguay.  This is Punta de Rieles, a non-traditional prison in which prisoners' responsibilization plays a fundamental role as a strategy of governance deployed by state authorities and agents to make prisoners responsible for developing, with broad levels of autonomy, an open range of activities officially promoted. The production of goods and services stands out among them. Most are generated from prisoners’ initiatives. To obtain the prison authorities' authorization and support to carry it out, prisoners are encouraged to design the productive activity project and draft a formal request. This «prisoner-entrepreneur» occupies a unique position in prison population. He is subject to responsibilization, requested to engage in a «positive use» of time and to develop forms of self-governance. However, simultaneously, as «employers» of other prisoners, they become and act as governance agents and they structure the field of action of the «prisoner-employee». In turn, this governmental role implies a whole series of collaborative but also conflictive relationships with state agents, especially with prison officers. This paper addresses the peculiar position of the «prisoner-entrepreneur» in terms of his governmental role and his links with state agents, as a unique form of governance in this non-traditional Latin American prison.

Se trata de Punta de Rieles, una prisión atípica en la que la responsabilización de los presos juega un papel fundamental como estrategia de gobierno desplegada por las autoridades y agentes estatales para responsabilizar a los reclusos de desarrollar, con amplios niveles de autonomía, una gama abierta de actividades promovidas oficialmente. Entre ellas destaca la producción de bienes y servicios. La mayoría de estas actividades se generan a partir de iniciativas de los presos. Para obtener la autorización y el apoyo de las autoridades penitenciarias para llevarla a cabo, se anima a los privados de libertad a diseñar el proyecto de actividad productiva y redactar una solicitud formal. Este «preso-emprendedor» ocupa una posición singular en la población de esta institución carcelaria. Está sujeto a responsabilización, se le pide que haga un «uso positivo» del tiempo y que desarrolle formas de autogobierno. Sin embargo, simultáneamente, como «empleador" de otros presos, se convierten y actúa como agente de gobierno y estructura el campo de acción del «preso-empleado». A su vez, este rol gubernamental implica toda una serie de relaciones colaborativas, pero también conflictivas con los agentes estatales, especialmente con los guardias. Este trabajo aborda la peculiar posición del «preso-empresario» en cuanto a su rol gubernamental y sus vínculos con los agentes del Estado, como forma única de gobierno en esta prisión no tradicional latinoamericana.
